Advantages: Very flexible usage; looks good
Disadvantages: Wattage doesn't match standard microwave meals

...We purchased this to supplement a Neff single oven so that we could grill at the same time as cooking in the oven. This was a constant source of frustration with our old single oven. This combination microwave has been a revelation - it has 5 microwave wattage settings varying from 90 up to 1000 watts. The only downside being that if you are doing microwave meals they are typically cooked at around 800 watts - most counter top microwaves are around this wattage. The closest this microwave gets to the 800 watt mark is 650. The highest wattage of 1000 is only suitable for heating up liquids and not food. Having said that, the flexibility that this machine offers is amazing - it operates as an oven and a grill in its own right. However, where it comes into its own is the ability to combine microwave cooking with the oven facility... Read review

Advantages: Space & Quality
Disadvantages: None

...What a find! There aren't many really large integrated fridges on the market but extensive research kept bringing this one up as the best and my experience so far confirms my research. It doesn't fail on the main reason for buying it - space. It has excellent capacity with superb door storage. The vegetable drawers are large and keep everything amazingly fresh. The split shelf is an ingenious idea and the tube holder (for garlic puree/tomato puree etc.) a nice extra touch. There are 2 egg holders for 6 eggs each but because the door shelves/storage are curved you wont fit both on one shelf. (Not really a problem though as ample room for everything anyway) Its extremely quiet,well made and with the Neff reputation for quality, its perfect. Although quite expensive its well worth the money. I've put this review on to save you going insane... Read review

Advantages: nil
Disadvantages: were do you want me to start

...I'll make this short as I can, because this is a really dull subject but NEFF customer services need a kick up the a***. I have three NEFF products the usual ensemble, hob/oven/hood. I recently had a problem with poor quality production that caused the stainless steel facia on the hood to detach. OK these things happen that's life etc so what? When I approached Neff for a replacement (or fix) I was asked for my appliance ENR AND FD number, all well and good but I work (which is why I can afford the products) and the numbers weren't handy. No problems I thought I registered my appliances for the extended 2 year warranty so Neff already have the numbers so with my address they will be able to cross reference and problem solved. How wrong could I be? The warranty database is NOT connected, crossed referenced or copied across... Read review

Advantages: energy and water efficient, washes the dishes so you dont have to
Disadvantages: the end of cycle beeping goes on a bit

...I first encountered Neff when I kitted out the kitchen in my old house in 2006. when I moved house I had to leave them behind, so I needed a new dishwasher. I did not hesitate in going back to Neff as I really like their products. Neff combines, function, form and design. Features This is Neff's mid-range dishwasher and has the following features: * Light to show cycle in progress * five washing programmes and half load cycle * salt and rinse aid indicator * lower cutlery basket * upper knife rack * spray facility * digital timer display Rather than me going through all the standard features, you can check out www.neff.co.uk. If you are anything like me, then you will put everything in the dishwasher, from pots and pans to plastics. My view is if an item does not survive the dishwasher it was never very... Read review

Advantages: Big, looks good and works well
Disadvantages: Big and pricey

...Neff K3990 American Style Fridge Freezer One of my abiding memories of watching American TV in the seventies and eighties was when the Mom (sic) would go into the kitchen and open this gi-normous fridge, packed to gills with all manner of loveliness. In those far off days fridges of that scale were nought but a dream for us under privileged limeys and we could merely stare in wonder and accept that only a country that could put a man on the moon was capable of producing appliances of that grandeur. But now our time has come, American style fridge freezers (strangely called side-by-sides by the Yanks) are now freely available over here and are quickly becoming the appliance of choice for any kitchen renovator with enough space and cash. So it was when we came to extend and replace our kitchen that one of these monsters would be top... Read review

Advantages: Quality, reliability, durability, brand name
Disadvantages: none so far

...Death of an oven We bought our first built-in Neff oven and hob when moving into our first house, moved it with us to our present abode, and until last week it had been in constant use with few problems. Odd things needed fixing, the door seal went, bulbs blew, the fan motor packed in eventually but we continued to use it as a conventional oven. I broke the little catches that release the door for cleaning and, as it gracefully declined without drama or fuss we decided it was well past the time to replace it and began to look around. I won’t bore you with the details of the ‘looking around process: it took nearly two years and during that time other bits and pieces stopped working. The hob control knobs broke, auto ignition clogged up so it became increasingly difficult to light the gas and finally the light behind the glass... Read review

Advantages: Efficient and economic - has worked perfectly for 3 years
Disadvantages: none

...Well that’s my excuse anyway. OK I admit it – I’m a bit of a lazy cow but I just couldn’t live without a dishwasher and I have had one sort or another for about 20 years. At the moment I own a Neff S4340 dishwasher which I believe has been replaced now by the S5453. I have had it for three years and it has worked perfectly at all times with absolutely no problems. My first dishwasher (s) were my kids. Being an evil sort of parent I bribed them into doing the dishes for pocket money. I probably wouldn’t get away with it today with Childline and kids rights and things like that but those were the good old days. To be honest though children aren’t very good dishwashers – they are much too noisy, they are unkind to crockery, they use too much water and detergent and they don’t get the stuff... Read review

Advantages: Quiet, great results, packs a lot in, great for a quickie.
Disadvantages: The beeping, length of wash.

...****Description**** This dishwasher looks pretty ugly when you see it standing alone. When disguised behind a maple cupboard door, which is what we chose for our kitchen units, it looks absolutely brilliant! (If you like maple doors that is - you cannot see the dishwasher most of the time)! The Neff model S5443 not forgetting the X1GB addendum, is a stainless steel appliance specifically designed to be built into a unit. Neff is a German company. Our previous dishwasher was a white AEG stand alone model. It was great but the kitchen design company we chose, only worked with Neff so we had to have a model from their range. The AEG although 7 years old went to a new home and is still going strong. I would have happily chosen another AEG model. When you open the cupboard door, a black edged panel greets you with the controls... Read review

Advantages: Stylish, modern, led screen, simple!!
Disadvantages: Too expensive!!

..., which is great, as it can be put at any level and doesnt have to stand on the side. ----AVAILABLE---- In white, black or stainless steel. I'm reviewing the black model, however the other versions have the same functions as well. I'd say the silver and black are more attractive as most modern kitchens use this. And to top it off and be fancy you have the matching oven as well. ---BUY FROM--- Local household item stores: Comet at around £344 Kitchen Science online at £488 Must admit the most highly priced model is the stainless steel one, these are probably more popular and suit modern kitchens so. The Neff manufacturer who we got ours from gives a two year warranty. They obviously trust their products. ---EXPENSE---- Quite expensive ranging from £299-£488 - but it does the job and has many more functions than... Read review
