Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Ovens

1. What’s the difference between built-in and built-under ovens?
Built-in ovens fit into tall cabinets at eye level, while built-under models fit beneath worktops.

2. Is a double oven better than a single?
If you often cook multiple dishes at different temperatures, a double oven is worth it.

3. Are electric ovens better than gas ovens?
Electric ovens generally offer more consistent and even cooking. Gas ovens heat up faster and are preferred by some for traditional baking.

4. What is pyrolytic cleaning?
A high-temperature cleaning cycle that turns food residue into ash for easy wiping.

5. How do I choose the right oven size?
Measure your kitchen cavity and match it with the oven’s dimensions; check capacity in litres for cooking needs.

Freestanding electric models may be DIY-friendly, but built-in and gas ovens require professional installation.

Most do, but always check the product specification before buying.

Yes—especially if you like remote control, guided cooking, and voice assistant features.

10. How long should an oven last?
A good-quality oven should last 10–15 years with proper care.

Yes, but avoid covering the base to prevent heat reflection issues.

12. Do your ovens come with a warranty?
Yes—most include a 1–5 year manufacturer’s warranty.

13. How do steam ovens work?
They inject steam during cooking, keeping food moist and enhancing flavour.

14. Are all ovens the same size?
