KitchenAid KEMS379BSS

Combination Wall Oven (Combi Oven)  8.5/10

By


KitchenAid KEMS379BSSAt around $3,199, this is a very expensive combo oven from KitchenAid. The fact that it blends in with surrounding cabinetry is a big plus for a stylish kitchen. A extra touch of design is seen with smooth beveled edges and matching wide viewing windows. The KEMS379BSS’ oven and microwave both offer convection that really goes the extra mile for making food tasty and delicious. The oven does tend to take a while to preheat, but cook times are faster and food bakes evenly. The oven’s cavity is quite spacious at 4.3 cubic feet. That means you’ll be able to fit multiple pans at once. Best of all, the control panel is ergonomically designed and easy to program. The oven’s self cleaning features work very well too. This is a top performing oven and microwave combo, but the price is really where it loses points.
