My dude, you are never going to have a heat pump oven.
But the neat thing is they STILL work together. The heat cast off by a fridge/freezer can be picked up by a stand-alone heat pump hot water heater. When you need cooling, both that hot water heater and the heat pump will work to cool the house. And in the winter, the heat the hot water needs will be first bought in by the heat pump.
The best part about my heat pump water heater is I have a massive “refrigerator” in my house. It keeps the room it’s in about 45°F year round, which is great for storing wine and root vegetables, and storing beverages in there means they get cold in the fridge a lot faster.
Great for those on the south. Not as great for those of us that have to heat our homes, meaning a furnace or another heat pump needs to make up that heat.
Not that they are bad, mind you, they are quite good, just another part of the economic equation. Makes it more of a home run where you are cooling most of the year anyway.
