I am new to the world of steam ovens and have found two specific models that I am comparing/debating against.

Miele DGC6800-1SS and Fisher&Paykal OS30NPX1 F

Both units are older demo units at pretty good savings, 60% and 80% off respectively.

Price aside, which one would you prefer and feel more confident with regards to performance, quality and reliability?

I do like the Miele for its larger capacity oven and what seems to be a more modern UI when comparted to that generation of F&P.

Does the Miele's motorized door, present a future potential issue down the road?

Looking at 48" luxury ranges:

A) Viking all gas series 7 (new, but highly discounted, not far off from the wolf below)

b) Wolf all gas (used, but still has the latest knobs and door design)

What started as a quest to get a dual fuel, is now leaning towards all gas and freeing up the 240 line for another component, like a speed or steam oven. The impression I am getting is that regardless of brand, a duel fuel will eventually present a control board problem and no brand is necessarily immune from that (Thermador taking top honors here).

Thoughts? What would you be more comfortable with?
