ETNA CM514GLS

I often want to warm up quickly after work or bake something. With the ETNA CM514GLS combination oven, I do both in one appliance. I can quickly select the functions via the touchscreen and see my dish clearly thanks to the bright lighting. However, I do see fingerprints more easily on the glass touchscreen.

Easy to clean without buttons I like the sleek design without separate knobs in my kitchen. I operate everything via the touchscreen. As soon as I turn on the oven, I immediately select the oven program. For the microwave, I tap the wave symbol and then set the time and power. That works clearly for me. Because there are no protruding loose knobs, I can easily clean the control panel with a cloth. The glossy glass does show fingerprints quickly, so I wipe it clean regularly.

Lasagna with a crispy crust

For lasagna, I use top and bottom heating. My lasagna cooks well, and at the end, I select the grill for a moment. This gives the cheese layer a crispy crust. I don't want to keep opening the door to check on it while baking. The bright light shines from top to bottom, allowing me to clearly see how far along my dish is.

From croissants to frozen pizza

Do I have croissants from the freezer or a cake for a birthday? With the convection setting, I bake my croissants crispy and airy, and I also make cakes for parties. Short on time for a frozen pizza? Then I choose an automatic program and don't have to search for a suitable setting myself. For a movie night with friends, I make popcorn in this combination oven using the microwave function. With inverter technology, I reheat yesterday's leftovers more evenly using the microwave function. This ensures my meal is nice and warm in the middle as well.

Automatic programs

I like it when the oven does all the work for me. That is why I like to use one of the automatic programs. I select the dish and simply enter the weight. The oven then sets the temperature, time, and power itself. This oven has programs for frozen pizza, cake, apple pie, quiche, oven fries, and frozen lasagna, among others. Handy when I'm in a hurry and want to get food on the table quickly.

Self-cleaning

After a lasagna or cake, dirt sometimes remains in the oven. Because this combination oven does not have a cleaning function, I clean the inside myself with a cloth. With an oven with hydrolysis, this would have been a bit less work. Fortunately, I am still done reasonably quickly.
