We've tested both generations of the June Smart Oven at the CNET Smart Home. Impressed by the software, look and feel of the June experience, we recommended it to anyone willing to shell out big bucks for smart oven tech. Now, June is taking preorders for its third-gen model. Prices start at $599 for the new oven, which includes updated software and more cooking functions than the previous-gen cookers. (The June isn't currently available outside the US but $599 converts to about £440 or AU$800)
The third-gen oven will be a 12-in-one appliance. It can air fry, slow cook, grill, dehydrate, broil, bake, proof, stone fire pizza, roast, toast, keep food warm and reheat leftovers. Grilling and the stone-fire pizza mode are new for this model.
Like the June ovens before it, this generation recognizes food for precise cooking. A streamlined touchscreen interface directs you through cooking modes and options, and a camera inside takes a look at your dinner to identify exactly what's on the menu. June says that new software will offer an even better experience than before.
The new June Oven will have a stone fire pizza mode an optional accessories.
JuneThe six heating elements that make up the oven's core cooking power will now be individually controllable. The second-gen model allowed users to control heating elements in three groups. The new control options enable better roasting options like rotisserie-style cooking, and zoned cooking that can zero in on where food has been placed inside the oven.
The new oven comes with material changes as well. A new aluminum handle and guard rails on the top heating elements have been added along with new convection fan motors for quieter operation. A new chip set has also been implemented to improve connectivity with Wi-Fi and the June mobile app.
The third-gen June Oven has upgraded software, hardware and more cooking modes.
