AEG vs Hisense Cookers

AEG and Hisense both offer double oven cookers, with Hisense focusing on value and air fry. AEG's cookers include the CCX6740ACB 112-litre freestanding double oven with four ceramic hobs at £699 and the CCX1530ACB SurroundCook cooker at the same price. Hisense's models are the HDCEC6C20B double oven cooker with ceramic hob at £449, the HDCEIT6C20B electric double oven with induction hob and air fry at £651, the built-under BID75211XUK double oven at £359 and the BUD714221CX multi system double oven at £379.

The gap is £250 between the AEG CCX6740ACB and the HDCEC6C20B, which offers 50 and 80-litre capacities, a four-zone ceramic hob, pizza mode and catalytic liners. The HDCEIT6C20B is the standout for induction, with an air fry mode, catalytic liners and XL capacities of 80 and 50 litres, at £48 less than the AEG CCX6740ACB. AEG's advantage is in bake-focused features: SteamBake on the CCB6741ACB and CCB6741ACM, and SurroundCook and a dual grill on the CCX6740ACB.

AEG suits keen home bakers and families who want steam baking and consistent results across shelves from a freestanding cooker. Hisense suits families who want a double oven without a premium price, and buyers who want induction and air frying in one appliance. The built-under models fit beneath a worktop, which suits kitchens with fitted units. Induction hobs need magnetic pans, so check your cookware before buying the HDCEIT6C20B. The HDCEC6C20B at £449 is the best-value double oven here, while the BUD714221CX at £379 gives a multi system double oven for under £400.

Bottom line: choose AEG if SteamBake and SurroundCook baking matter most, from £699. Choose Hisense if you want a double oven at a lower price, from £359 for the built-under model, or induction with air fry for £651 with the HDCEIT6C20B.
