The Miele Dialog oven is the biggest innovation leap in cooking technology since the introduction of induction cooktops. It is a truly revolutionary new appliance which can achieve the seemingly impossible, for example, cook fish embedded in the centre of a block of ice – without the ice melting.

  • Miele's designers were tasked to think outside the square and to essentially re-invent the cooking process in an oven. A key objective was to develop an oven which would cook much faster than conventional ovens, whilst at the same time maintaining a very gentle cooking process to achieve superior results, without the shortcomings and disadvantages of other fast cooking methods, such as microwave ovens. At the same time, the product had to be not only very easy to use, but also visually be a perfect match with other products in Miele's latest Generation 7000 of built-in cooking appliances.

  • The Dialog oven emits electromagnetic waves at changing frequencies which respond intelligently to the texture of the food. Throughout the cooking process, the oven is effectively in a dialogue with the food, measures how much of this energy has actually been absorbed and keeps adjusting the frequencies and intensity accordingly. As the waves of the Dialog oven penetrate much deeper into the food than microwaves, the food is being cooked very gently and uniformly. With M Chef technology, this process can be combined with conventional oven functions, achieving excellent cooking results with time savings of up to 70%.

  • In commercial terms, the Miele Dialog oven has the potential to make a significant positive impact on Miele's overall business performance. The substantial investment in R&D and design has resulted in a truly unique product which can deliver revolutionary, previously impossible and unknown cooking experiences, combined with an unprecedented degree of user convenience. With the Dialog oven, Miele has effectively created a whole new appliance category and is perfectly positioned to benefit disproportionately in the context of the construction of new residential dwellings and kitchen refurbishments.

  • The Miele Dialog oven is a groundbreaking and sophisticated new product development. In a Miele world first, M Chef technology is being deployed where conventional oven functions are being combined with electromagnetic waves in a range of frequencies which respond to the texture of the food in an intelligent manner. Apart from innovative dishes such as cooking fish in a block of ice without the ice melting, or cooking a fillet of veal in a jacket of beeswax without the wax melting, the true benefits and advantages of the Miele Dialog oven become evident in everyday household use. It is, for example, possible to combine dissimilar fresh ingredients for an entire meal (such as a leg of lamb, green asparagus and potato wedges) on an oven tray at the same time, and cook them together, done to perfection, at exactly the same time, and up to 70% faster than using conventional cooking methods. There simply is no other cooking appliance on the market which is able to achieve comparable results.
