Pyrolytic Ovens

A self-cleaning oven might sound too good to be true, but the technology does exist and it’s becoming more common than ever. All of that grease, grime and fat can be turned to ash and easily wiped away with a simple setting adjustment.

At The Good Guys, affordable kitchen appliances are our speciality. When  it comes to cheap electric ovens and cheap gas ovens, we’ve got a smorgasbord of feature-packed models to suit everyone, from the humble home cook through to the chef extraordinaire. We’re also across the biggest trends and new technology ‒ hello, steam ovens and self-cleaning pyrolytic ovens! ‒ and we’ve got all the expert advice you need to find the best value oven to buy in 2024.

When was the last time you cleaned your oven? For all the cooking, roasting and baking your oven does on the daily, it deserves a bit of TLC to keep it operating in tip-top shape.

To keep your oven sanitary and sparkling, and your favourite meals tasting exactly like they should, it’s important to regularly maintain your appliance with the right oven cleaners and techniques. Or, lighten your load by upgrading to a pyrolytic oven that can clean itself!

“With stray garlic bread crumbs and grease from the family roast, there’s no denying the oven can get messy. That’s why regular cleaning is key to restoring its glistening glory,” says Tania Grillinzoni, The Good Guys Buyer – Cooking.

“The latest oven cleaners tackle built-up grease and grime, and are super easy to use. Meanwhile, self-cleaning ovens have tailored programs that do the heavy lifting for you,” adds Tania.

Whether you’re jumping into a full kitchen renovation or upgrading your appliances for a mini kitchen makeover, there’s no doubt you’ve pondered the big questions: What are the best kitchen appliances? And, if I pay more for high-end kitchen appliances, do I really get more in terms of features and functionality? 

As a kitchen appliances expert, I’m constantly asked these questions because people want to buy once, and buy well – particularly when it comes to big-ticket items that will keep their household running smoothly.

So, here’s my top tip. When planning your kitchen reno budget, prioritise your dream kitchen appliances. Put them at the top of your list. And keep in mind that your family’s dream appliance doesn’t necessarily have to be a high-end purchase. You might be pleasantly surprised at the price tag.

If there are features you want (cue the jet-drying dishwasher, double wall oven and custom fridge), work them into the budget at the planning stage. Life is too short for regrets. Plus, if you love these appliances, so will future buyers when and if the time comes to put your home on the market.

We all know kitchen renovations can sometimes be a little, well, challenging. With appliances jostling for their spot amid that all-important bench space, there’s a lot for renovators to consider.

From minimum clearances to recommended dimensions, there’s an art to planning for appliances including fridges, dishwashers and rangehoods – here are some top tips.

Cooking delicious meals for your friends and family is a wonderful way to connect, get creative and entertain at home.
