AEG SteamBake Cooker with Ceramic Hobs - Black vs SurroundCook Electric Cooker with Ceramic Hob - Black — Comparison
CCB6741ACB SteamBake Cooker with Ceramic Hobs in black is priced at £759, while the CCX1530ACB SurroundCook Electric Cooker with Ceramic Hob in black costs £699. Both are AEG electric cookers with four-zone ceramic hobs, catalytic cleaning, multilevel cooking and A energy ratings, but the CCB6741ACB sits slightly higher thanks to its SteamBake and baking-specific features.
The CCB6741ACB lists a pizza setting, four ceramic hobs, Moist Fan Baking, SteamBake, multilevel cooking and catalytic cleaning. The CCX1530ACB lists SurroundCook, a four-zone ceramic hob, catalytic cleaning, a multilevel cooking main oven and a dual grill. Supplied details do not state oven capacities, wattage, full dimensions or hob-zone power for either model, so the key differences are cooking modes rather than size. The CCB6741ACB is stronger for moisture-assisted baking and pizza, while the CCX1530ACB highlights even SurroundCook performance and a dual grill at a lower price.
The CCB6741ACB suits keen bakers, pizza fans and cooks who want extra help keeping bread, cakes or roasts moist. The £60 premium is modest if SteamBake and Moist Fan Baking will be used regularly rather than treated as occasional extras. The CCX1530ACB is better for buyers who want a capable AEG ceramic cooker but do not need steam-assisted cooking. It still includes catalytic cleaning, multilevel cooking and a dual grill, so it covers everyday family meals well while keeping the price below £700. For many households, the decision is whether baking performance is worth the extra spend.
Bottom line: "choose CCB6741ACB if you want SteamBake, Moist Fan Baking and a pizza setting / opt for CCX1530ACB if you want a cheaper AEG SurroundCook model with catalytic cleaning, multilevel cooking and a dual grill."
