OPERA COOKERS: TRUE TIMELESS CLASSICS

Modern in design thanks to its clean and elegant styling, ergonomic lever shaped controls and robust handles, Opera is a truly aspirational range of cookers for serious cooks. Crafted with real attention to detail and using 18/10 Stainless Steel, the range is robust and built to last.

SMEG'S LARGEST COOKER

The biggest model in the range with a  150cm width, the A5, Smeg’s flagship cooker, features eclipse black door glass which appears black when switched off but when lit during cooking, becomes translucent ensuring perfect visibility of the interior, two programmable clock displays with touch controls and an energy rating of AA.

With its undoubtably large presence in the kitchen, the A5-81 highly impressive stature quickly becomes the focal point of the room whilst providing the perfect platform to show off your culinary skills to family and friends! 

With a huge selection of gas burners including a large fish burner and electric griddle, perfect for searing steak, it is possible to cook several dishes at once with ease. Add to that the enormous 131 litres (net)/160 litres (gross), combined oven capacity, the A5-81 has all the space you could ever need for your Christmas turkey and trimmings! Finally, store away all the pots and pans after cooking in the large convenient storage drawer.

Cast iron grid supports

Heavy duty cast iron pan stands offer maximum stability and safety.
Seamlessly glide your pan across from one burner to the next, thanks to their flat design.

Storage drawer

All Opera cookers come with a full width pull out storage drawer, perfect for housing trays, racks, plates and more.

Eclipse black glass

This innovative, premium material appears jet black when the oven is off, yet transparent when the oven is turned on, offering enhanced visibility into the cavity to check on cooking progress with ease. 

CLOSED DOOR GRILLING

Closed door grilling allows you to grill with the door closed, keeping cooking smells inside the oven and out of the kitchen to ensure a safe cooking environment and reduced energy consumption.

Easy clean enamel interior

The enamel finish of the oven cavity has a special antacid lining which helps to reduce the amount of dirt adhering to the surface.

No flavour transfer

The Circulaire function provides quick, multi layered cooking with excellent browning results. Due to the effective circulation of hot air, there is no flavour transfer between foods. Delicate and strongly fragranced foods can be cooked at the same time.

Programs / Functions

Traditional cooking functions
  • Upper and lower element only: a traditional cooking method best suited for single items located in the centre of the oven. the top pf the oven will always be hottest. Ideal for roast, fruit cakes, bread etc. Static
  • Fan with upper and lower elements: The elements combined with the fan aim to provide more uniform heat, a similar method to conventional cooking, so pre-heat is required. Most suitable for items requiring slow cooking methods. Fan assisted
  • Circulaire:  The combination of the fan and circular element around it gives a hot air cooking method. This provides many benefits including no preheat if cook time is more than 20 minutes, no flavour transfer when cooking different foods at the same time, less energy, and shorter cook times. Good for all types of food. Circulaire
  • Circulaire with upper and lower elements: The use of the fan with both elements allows food to be cooked quickly and effectively, ideal for large joints that require thorough cooking. It offers a similar result to rotisserie, moving the heat around the food, instead of moving the food itself, enabling any size or shape to be cooked. Turbo (circulaire + bottom + upper + fan)
  • ECO: The combination of the grill, fan and lower element is particularly suitable for cooking small quantities of food. ECO
  • Grill element: Using of grill gives excellent results when cooking meat of medium and small portions, especially when combined with a rotisserie (where possible). Also ideal for cooking sausages and bacon. Large grill
  • Fan with grill element: The fan reduces the fierce heat from the grill, providing an excellent method of grilling various foods, chops, steaks, sausages etc. giving even browning and heat distribution, without drying out the food. The top two levels recommended for use, and the lower part of the oven can be used to keep items warm at the same time, an excellent facility when cooking a grilled breakfast. Half grill (centre portion only) is ideal for small quantities of food. Fan grill (large)
  • Circogas: In gas ovens the fan distributes the heat quickly and evenly throughout the oven cavity, avoiding flavour transfer when cooking a number of different dishes at the same time. In electric ovens this combination completes cooking more quickly of foods that are ready on the surface, but that require more cooking inside, without further browning. Fan assisted base
