A word about the Review
Our Review is different from other reviews that you read on the Net: we're not armchair reviewers. We bought and installed the product for our own use. No one sponsored us to endorse the product.

We invite you - if you have bought, installed and used the product to tell us your user experience, particularly after using the product for at least a year. Whether positive or negative, please give us your feedback. Oh, don't forget to provide your Renotalk user ID and photos of your kitchen so we could verify you're a bonafide user of the product.


Rinnai oven RBO-7MSO

Verdict: 3.5 out of 5 stars


Another frequent query was our take on the Rinnai oven. Well, so far I have mixed feelings about it. It performs as what an average oven is supposed to do. But I am not happy, yet. The Rinnai oven has failed to match my previous Bauknet oven, a premium German brand. As mentioned elsewhere on my blog, everything I cooked in my Bauknet oven turned out perfectly - because the oven's heating elements were top-notch and consistent. Maybe the Europeans are better at making ovens than the Japs? FWIW, Rinnai's oven was made by an Italian factory. Well, so much for the "European" heritage.

My family's Bauknet oven was able to roast chicken that came out juicy, succulent, perfectly roasted. Time after time, consistently. And we had it for 15 yrs! Not so with the Rinnai oven: it produces inconsistent roasts, sometimes ok, sometimes off. I suspect it may be due to the heating elements, or insulation, or something else. Or perhaps we have not "broken" it in just yet? Of course, external factors may also be a reason for the inconsistent result, such as using chicken of different

weight or size, etc. But we think that is unlikely as we have done trials and still the outcome was not consistent. For the time being we are inclined to give it 3 out of 5 stars. Hope that will satisfy those who pm'ed me.

Hopefully, as we continue to use the oven and give it more time to break-in, it may improve. So far, the only feature we're unhappy with the oven is the quality of our roasts. In all other aspects it performed as expected.
