Ive bought two ovens from appliance direct...025374264

They do not have a store unless they are having a sale.  Their CS is really good and all english speaking so they can explain everything to you.

First one was Sauter (not sure how it's spelled) was a regular good oven

Second one I bought was a stainless steel Bosch...its much nicer look but more expensive.

I didnt pay for both of them...Bal dira paid...

Most standard ovens in Israel apartments are smaller then Ameican ovens...if you want to buy full sized...its around double the price...I dont think its worth it.

Why do you prefer a double?

I could be very wrong but IIRC some double ovens are questionable if can be used both at same time (Halachicly)

For me a double happened to be inconvenient...just because I have a Milchig toaster and whenever I needed the oven for Milchigs there are different ways that can happen.

i had a double sauter that i LOVED (was 3500 nis) they dont make it anymore- and sauter is an awful company now. (happens to be u cant use the ovens at the same time, which i didnt mind) I would say go to the store and look around at things you like and than call around. There are many many bad companies (i hated the beller oven), and look into second hand, i sold an awesome oven in amazing condition for half the price. Im sure you can find things like that... good luck.

KIng is a good one. What color, Stainless (should be 2750 -2850 NIS) or white (2650-2750NIS)?
