Stoves ovens reviews
In the Which? lab we test ovens on a wide range of criteria, and have found a significant difference between the best and worst. Stoves ovens have achieved varying success in our tough tests, highlighting the importance of checking the performance of each model, rather than choosing an oven by brand.
In our tough tests, Stoves ovens typically score well for preheating speed and ease of cleaning, and have achieved average to excellent scores for ease of use.
However, while several models score excellently for oven heat distribution, others do very badly. Scores for accuracy of controls vary from excellent to poor, and a couple of models score poorly for evenness of grilling.
None of the Stoves ovens we’ve tested are childproof and none have a self-cleaning system, but two do come with a meat probe.
If you’re considering buying a Stoves oven, check how well it scores on a variety of criteria, by visiting our ovens test results. Here you will also find our compare ovens tool which can help you find an oven that best suits your needs.
As well as testing ovens in our lab, we also survey thousands of oven owners on the reliability of the model they have. Which? subscribers can see Stoves’ reliability rating in the table below, or visit the reliability page in our ovens review to see reliability data for all oven brands.
