OUR PLACE was first on our radar in 2021 when it finally launched in the UK after being a sell-out success in the US.
Our Place is, arguably, best known for the iconic Always Pan, and while the range has expanded over the years, the latest release will blow your socks off – The Wonder Oven.
The Wonder Oven, £152 ($195) Our Place
The Wonder Oven is unlike anything we have seen before from Our Place but sticks to the premium kitchenware’s ethos of bright-coloured, premium products that work.
The 6-in-1 Wonder Oven is available to shop online at Our Place now, but the most popular colours are sure to sell out fast.
Our Place is well known for its multifunctional creations; The Always Pan can be used to steam, fry, roast, boil, saute, bake, braise, sear and strain, and similarly, the Wonder Oven can cook ingredients in numerous ways.
The Wonder Oven is a multipurpose creation as budding chefs can use the miniature oven to air fry, bake, roast, reheat and broil, in one device, which is genius if you ask us.
The Wonder Oven uses steam infusion technology to cook your ingredients, alongside air frying, to achieve a crispy exterior and soft interior – perfection.
The countertop creation promises to cook up to 30% faster than traditional ovens and can preheat 75% faster too, which makes it a more economical and energy-saving device.
The Wonder Oven may be suitable for the counter but that doesn’t mean it is too small to cook a feast for the family.
In fact, the oven can fit a 4.5lb chicken or the cooker can be expanded to multilevel to fit double the contents.
Just in case you’re questioning whether you need the Wonder Oven (yes, it will look super cute on your kitchen counter); Our Place has also insisted it cuts the space on your worktops taken up by other appliances.
In the FAQ section on their website, one question is “What appliances does it replace”, and you may be surprised by the answer.
Our Place claims “The Wonder Oven replaces your convection oven, air fryer and toaster. Cue the convenience!”
While the new appliance can replace existing kitchen tools, it also will not overwhelm the countertop either.
The Wonder Oven is a compact design measuring 1.6 inches in height, 10.6 in depth, 11.5 in width, and can hold up to 12 litres, weighing just 11.6lbs.
The Wonder Oven resembles a retro oven as it has a pull-down window, with three adjustable dials, and inside are ledges to fit different trays to use depending on your cooking preference.
Included in the set is a wire rack, bake pan, air fryer basket and crumb tray.
The temperature settings vary from 200° to 450°F, and alternatively, users can select pre-programmed cooking settings.
The Wonder Oven had US shoppers obsessed the moment it launched, as it sold out due to popular demand within just two weeks and we anticipate the same reaction when it launches in the UK.
But don’t just take our word for it, there are almost 1,500 glowing reviews from shoppers already, and an average rating of 4.4 out of 5 stars.
One happy shopper gushed: “I love it, it’s compact and works very efficiently.”
Another review read: “We were a little hesitant about the size of the oven fitting in our kitchen but we went ahead with the purchase and are so glad we did.
“It’s so new we haven’t done many different things in it but so far we are very happy. Are only negative comment is the dials are very hard to read, so we keep a small flashlight next to it. I think we’re going to buy another one for our son.”
A third praised: “I have to admit other air fryers are just ugly and I wanted one but not on my counter.
“This one is not only pretty, it works well, doesn’t take up too much space and is very efficient! Super happy.”
The Wonder Oven comes in six colours, two limited edition hues, which include sage green and lilac, as well as four classic shades, blue salt, charcoal, spice coral or steam.
Obviously, they are all gorgeous and pair perfectly with Our Place’s existing kitchenware range.
It is important to note the Wonder Oven is not dishwasher safe, and when cleaning Our Place recommends avoiding scours and abrasive cleaning agents.
Whether you want an air fryer, but one that is more affordable than some air fryer designs, and can cook ingredients in even more ways, you have a large family to feed, or you’re a student and are stuck for space, this nifty cooking appliance will be a saving grace.
