My AEG 60cm Steam Oven (Model BSK774320M) continues to amaze me — and not in a good way.
After using completely normal amounts of olive oil while roasting (you know… like people do in kitchens), I started noticing the internal nuts and bolts looking worn and corroded. Apparently, this oven treats olive oil like it’s industrial acid.
What’s even better? Nowhere and I mean nowhere in the manual does it say, “Do not cook with olive oil.” Not in the warnings. Not in the maintenance section. Not buried in tiny print. If your oven can’t handle one of the most basic cooking ingredients on the planet, that feels like a detail worth mentioning.
I bought a steam oven to cook actual food, not to run a controlled lab experiment testing the durability of hardware against salad dressing.
For a premium-priced appliance, I expected durability. Instead, I’m left wondering if I need to switch to air and optimism as my main ingredients.
Very disappointing.
