About the Appliance

Thermador Professional combines timeless design, modern technology and premi- um operating convenience.

The classic design of Thermador has made it a symbol of the perfect American kitchen for over 70 years. Our ovens today lead the way in continuing this tradition.

Behind the classic design is modern and perfected technology that ensures a high degree of efficiency. For instance, we have further improved the distribution of heat in the oven by using newly designed elements. The advantage of this results in shorter cooking times, perfect results and lower energy costs.

The oven also includes features that fulfill all of your needs. The rotisserie makes food crisp on all sides. The probe can be used to determine the internal doneness of food, especially meat and poultry. Similarly, the broil pan and grid included with the oven offer the flexibility you need when cooking, since they can be used to hold food, collect fat or provide a supporting surface.

This oven is very convenient and easy to operate, even with the wide variety of op- tions. The cooking mode and temperature can be adjusted with very little effort. The additional functions such as Fast Preheat, Cook Time and Sabbath Mode can be set at the touch of a button in just a few seconds, and the display always pre- sents the most important information while you are cooking.
