Wonder Oven Review: Our Place’s Mini Oven, Tested in the Pro Version

My review of Our Place’s Wonder Oven is a real love story. I tested the Wonder Oven Pro, the large 8-in-1 version of the mini oven, with an air fryer and built-in steam. It finally let me bake cookies that work, and cakes, a pizza, roasted vegetables and croissants too. The Wonder Oven comes in two models: the standard 6-in-1 at $185 and the Pro at $325, or $149 and $275 during Black Friday 2026. I will explain what I thought of the Pro and which one to choose.

Some kitchen appliances get tested and end up at the back of a cupboard… and then there are the ones you quickly can’t do without. Our Place’s Wonder Oven is clearly in the second group. I adore it!

At first I was a little worried it would take up too much room in my small kitchen. In the end it found its place on my countertop without any trouble. With its pretty design and cream color, it is as good-looking as it is practical. And above all, it can do everything!

Cookies, roasted vegetables, pizza, cakes, banana bread, baked camembert, croissants… I made quite a few recipes with it in a few days and I am won over. Let me tell you why!

The prices and specifications below were checked on the official Wonder Oven and Wonder Oven Pro pages on Our Place’s US site on November 9, 2026.

Wonder Oven or Wonder Oven Pro: the two models

Our Place sells two versions: the standard Wonder Oven, smaller and cheaper, and the Wonder Oven Pro I tested. Both share the essentials: built-in steam, a stainless steel interior, accessories made without PFAS and the same design. Here is how they differ, according to the brand’s product pages.

My advice: for one person or a couple who mostly want a versatile air fryer, the standard Wonder Oven is enough. To replace a real oven, bake big cakes, cook 12-inch pizzas or a family dish, the Pro is worth the price difference. The low temperatures and the long timer also open the door to proving dough and dehydrating.

My test is of the Pro. The design, the steam function and the materials are the same on the standard Wonder Oven. I did not test the standard model though: its smaller capacity (12 L) and knob controls will not necessarily give the same results on cakes or big pizzas.

Wonder Oven Pro: price and specifications

Preheating is said to be 60% faster than a traditional oven, according to Our Place’s tests at 375°F (190°C).

A beautiful design, but a real countertop oven

Let’s start with what won me over immediately: the look! The Wonder Oven Pro is really pretty. Its soft, elegant cream color fits perfectly in my kitchen. With its large window, its dial and its discreet screen, it has a modern, premium feel that I love.

What surprised me most was how well it fits in. I have a small kitchen and I was afraid an extra appliance would clutter my countertop. In the end it is much less imposing than I imagined.

Let’s be honest though: at 16.75 inches wide and 18 lb, this is not a small air fryer you put away in a cupboard. You need to give it a permanent spot. If your countertop is really tiny, the standard Wonder Oven (11.5 inches wide, 11.6 lb) will be easier to fit in.

It is the kind of appliance you can leave out on show without wanting to hide it. And that is just as well, because I use it so often that I prefer to keep it within reach!

An 8-in-1 appliance that really can do everything

The big advantage of the Wonder Oven Pro is its versatility. It brings together eight cooking modes, which you pick directly on the touchscreen:

• Air fry: for golden, crispy results.
• Bake: for cakes, cookies and all sorts of recipes.
• Roast: ideal for vegetables, meat and other oven dishes.
• Broil: to brown the top of a dish.
• Toast: to toast up to six slices of bread at once.
• Reheat: to bring dishes back to a pleasant heat.
• Dehydrate: to dry fruit, herbs or vegetables gently.
• Proof: for bread or pizza dough.

One small detail: my unit’s screen shows temperatures in °C, so I give °F equivalents in this review. Our Place’s US model shows °F by default and has a °F/°C toggle. After picking a mode, you just set the temperature and the time.

I did not test dehydrating or proving dough during this test: I concentrated on cooking my everyday recipes.

I really like the idea of replacing several appliances with a single one. Less clutter, fewer things to get out and, above all, many more possibilities every day!

My first tests: cookies that finally work!

This is probably one of my favorite tests! I love making cookies, but with my traditional oven it was always complicated. It tended to heat far too strongly from underneath and I regularly ruined the bake.

With the Wonder Oven Pro, first attempt and… flawless! My cookies finally worked, with an even bake and an absolutely delicious result. Needless to say, I was delighted!

Setting the temperature and the time was very easy, and I could finally follow the recipe instructions to the letter. The bake is perfect, whereas before I always had to experiment or adapt.

A mini oven that delivers both savory and sweet

Next I moved on to roasted vegetables and a pizza. Once again, the results were there. It is really pleasant to be able to prepare different recipes without juggling with a big traditional oven.

For the pizza, the large 28 L interior is a real asset: it fits flat on the rack, with no need to cut it.

Moist cakes you will want to make again the next day

Another very nice surprise: baking cakes! I started with a first cake and the result was so good that I wanted to do it again the very next day. My parents were coming for lunch, so I took the chance to make two new treats.

On the menu: an apple and cinnamon cake and a banana bread. Two absolutely delicious cakes!

I particularly enjoyed the result. The cakes were moist and well baked. That is exactly what I expect from a mini oven: being able to make everyday small bakes as well as proper homemade desserts.

And frankly, when an appliance makes me want to redo recipes the next day, that is a good sign!

From appetizers to breakfast

I also tried a much more indulgent recipe: a baked camembert with porcini mushrooms. A real treat! It is exactly the kind of small dish I love being able to make easily, without having to switch on my big oven for a single recipe.

The Wonder Oven Pro is really well suited to this kind of use: a dish to share for drinks, a small gratin, vegetables or an improvised dinner.

I also tried baking frozen croissants and the result was really impressive! They came out nicely golden on the outside and deliciously soft on the inside. What a pleasure to be able to make good hot croissants so easily for breakfast.

Built-in steam: a real little extra

Steam cooking is one of the features that set the Wonder Oven Pro apart from many mini ovens and standard air fryers. You pour a little water into the small reservoir on top, and the appliance creates steam while cooking. The aim is to keep food moist and stop it drying out.

It is also handy for reheating some dishes or bringing back softness to things that have lost their freshness, like yesterday’s baguette. I find it particularly interesting to have so many possibilities in a countertop appliance.

Stainless steel and PFAS-free: what I really appreciate

Another detail I particularly appreciate: how it is made. Unlike many air fryers that use non-stick coatings, sometimes based on PTFE (the family of coatings commonly known as Teflon), the Wonder Oven Pro relies on a stainless steel interior.

To be precise, the supplied baking tray is not stainless steel: it is aluminum, with a ceramic non-stick coating made without PFAS, according to Our Place. The air fryer basket, the rack and the crumb tray are steel. That is a real plus in my eyes, as I prefer to limit classic non-stick coatings in my cooking appliances.

Wonder Oven Pro, air fryer or full-size oven?

For a small flat without an oven, a student studio or a kitchen where the oven heats badly, like mine, the Wonder Oven Pro really bridges the gap between the two.

How much does the Wonder Oven Pro cost?

The Wonder Oven Pro is sold at $325 regular price on Our Place’s US site. During Black Friday 2026 it drops to $275, with the large bake pan and the large air fryer basket. Our Place also offers bundles with accessories:

• Wonder Oven Pro + Baker’s Kit: from $339 instead of $414, with a square pan, a round pan and a 12-cup muffin pan.
• Wonder Oven Pro + Chef’s Kit: from $349 instead of $424, with a roast pan and rack, a pizza pan and a deep air fryer basket.

Shipping is free on orders of $135 or more, and the brand offers a 100-day trial: a way to test the appliance at home without risk. The warranty is only one year, which is short for an appliance at this price.

My verdict on Our Place’s Wonder Oven

As you will have gathered, it is a huge favorite! I am really won over by this multifunction oven.

I love its design, its cream color and above all its versatility. It found its place in my small kitchen and lets me make a multitude of recipes.

But what definitely convinced me is the cooking results. My cookies finally working, my vegetables, my pizza and my cakes perfectly cooked… I even wanted to make more cakes the next day for my parents!

I find it so practical that I would almost like to recommend it to everyone. It is particularly interesting for people with a small kitchen, but also for students and young people moving into their first apartment. It is a versatile appliance that lets you cook a lot of things without multiplying equipment.

The strengths

• An elegant design and a lovely cream color.
• Eight cooking modes in one appliance.
• Even cooking: cookies, cakes and croissants that worked first time.
• Built-in steam cooking.
• A stainless steel interior and PFAS-free accessories.
• A large 28 L interior with three rack positions.

The weaknesses

• A high price outside promotions: $325.
• An appliance 16.75 inches wide and 18 lb that needs a dedicated spot.
• Two modes I did not test: dehydrate and proof.
• A warranty limited to one year.

Is the Wonder Oven worth it?

Yes, especially if you cook often and your current oven is small, temperamental or missing. At $275 during Black Friday it becomes a real bargain for an appliance that replaces an oven, an air fryer and a toaster. At the $325 regular price it is still an investment, but one that its versatility, design and results justify if you use it regularly.

The standard Wonder Oven, at $185 ($149 during Black Friday), is the right choice for one person or a couple if you mostly want a versatile and pretty air fryer. The Pro is worth the price difference if you want to replace a real oven. And if you only want to make fries and reheat leftovers, a basket air fryer will cost much less.

The Wonder Oven Pro has definitely found its place in my kitchen and I can tell it is going to be used a lot. A lovely discovery that I recommend without hesitation! ❤️
