Advice – does a cooker with these features actually exist?

[DanNZ]

I’m planning to replace our aging 120cm Smeg cooker this year. I’d like a full induction cooktop and a pyrolytic oven. Does anyone know if such a cooker actually exists? Smeg have their Portofino range in 120cm, it is pyrolytic but it’s mixed gas and induction. There’s also a Falcon Mercury 120cm cooker that has an induction cooktop (no gas like the Portofino) but it’s not pyrolytic. I’m in New Zealand and European cookers are a bit more expensive here than in the UK, but I think we can get most of the same products. Ideally I’d be aiming for a budget of < UK pounds 8000 (sorry no “pounds” key on my NZ keyboard!)

You may struggle with that as induction hobs need a lot of ventilation and active cooling for the electronics so, an oven under one heating up to clean is likely not to be a winning combination for longevity.
