Manufacturers of modern kitchen appliancesThey are trying to make the process of cooking not only fast, but also very exciting. That is why they equip their devices with additional functions and programs. But is it necessary for the real mistress? After all, the simpler the household appliances, the easier it is to use, and all these newfangled chips only distract from the business. We understand together what to look for in the first place when choosing an electric oven for the house.

But at the same time, it is very important to assess the reliability of the wiring. For home use, by the way, ovens with improved energy efficiency (class, A or higher), which retain maximum functionality with relatively low energy consumption, are quite suitable. Today, many models of ovens have additional modes, we understand the main ones. So, for example, an electric oven can be equipped with convection - a ventilation system that ensures uniform baking of the product (due to all-round heating with hot air). Some models are equipped with 3D heating, which allows for more optimal heat distribution and, accordingly, efficient cooking on several levels at once (without mixing odors). Many manufacturers also add a vario grill (it can be large or small), as well as defrosting, drying, heating dishes, maintaining the temperature and other special modes. Electric oven size. This is also a very important point. Designers of household appliances offer, for example, compact models up to 45 cm in height, which are slightly more expensive than conventional items, but they fit very elegantly into almost any kitchen. This aspect will be very relevant to owners of small compact studio apartments. It is often not always possible to fit a standard set of furniture and appliances there, so you have to look for suitable solutions. Additional functions. Modern models sometimes have microwave, steam, core temperature probe, readiness probe, telescopic rails and other features. It all depends on what functions are important to you in the first place. The cleaning process. When choosing a model, pay attention to the possibility of self-cleaning. It can be pyrolytic (the device heats up to a temperature close to 500 ° C, and all contaminants simply melt), catalytic (during cooking, fat gets on a special porous surface with an oxidation catalyst and breaks down), hydrolysis (softening contaminants with steam). Important! Try not to choose an oven with a single glass door. It gets very hot during use and can get burned. It also makes sense to bypass copies without convection and a timer and turn your gaze to more "advanced brothers".
