Capacity

Internal volume involved in cooking. The larger the capacity, the more spacious the oven, but do not forget that this parameter also affects the dimensions of the device.

Power

Useful power of the electric oven. The higher the power, the faster the device warms up to operating temperature and the faster food is cooked. However , high power usually means high power consumption.

Max. temperature

The maximum air temperature inside the electric oven during normal operation. The possibility of cooking certain dishes depends on the maximum temperature. And if you are not a gourmet and do not cook anything super-unusual, then models with a high temperature are useless to you. 250 °C will be quite enough.

Number of cooking modes

The number of specific operating modes provided for by the design of the oven (for example, “top grill”, “bottom grill”, “grill + convection”, temperature conditions, etc.). The more modes, the wider the possibilities of the oven.

Features

Grill — a device for cooking food due to thermal radiation. It provides baking to a ruddy crust. Suitable for cooking steaks, casseroles, and dishes with breadcrumbs.

Convection. The convection function enhances the natural circulation of hot air inside the oven, ensuring an even distribution of heat throughout the oven. Especially useful for baking.

Steam cooking. Ability to use the oven for steam cooking. Cooking is carried out in the main chamber of the oven, and the steam comes from a special reservoir into which water is poured in advance. This method is considered more healthy than traditional cooking. In addition, it often turns out to be optimal for people with dietary restrictions. However, models with steam cooking are also more expensive than usual ones.

Defrosting. The ability to use an electric oven for defrosting frozen foods. In this mode, the temperature inside the oven is relatively low since you do not need to bake the product but only bring it to room temperature, keeping it raw.

Rotisserie fork. A device for roasting in the oven dishes (usually meat or fish) in pieces or whole. It is a rotating metal rod (or several rods), usually installed horizontally, on which the prepared product is mounted. Rotation of the rotisserie fork ensures u...niform baking. Usually, it is carried out using a drive from an electric motor.

Timer. A time counter that allows you to more accurately control the cooking process. Some timers automatically turn off the oven after the set time has elapsed, while others simply beep.

Auto switch-off. A safety system that turns off the oven if it has been working for a long time without user intervention or when the heating element reaches a critical temperature.

Child lock. A security system that allows you to lock the oven door. Thus, a curious small child will not be able to open it, which, with the oven running, could be fraught with a burn. Such a lock is unlocked by pressing a few keys on the control panel.

Lighting

Function of illumination of a working chamber. Thanks to its lighting, you can better see the chamber of the oven. This feature is useful to control the cooking process through the glass without opening the door. However, it can also be useful when the door is open, for example, when cleaning the oven.
