Oven heat distribution
We measure how evenly heat is distributed around the oven cavity.

Accuracy of oven controls
We measure the difference between the set oven temperatures, and the temperatures the ovens actually reached in our tests.

Grill
We use toast to show how evenly heat spreads across the grill.

Oven and grill convenience
How easy the oven and grill are to use. This includes the controls, visibility, doors, how easy it is to adjust shelves and to load and unload food in both oven and grill.

Cleaning
How easy the oven is to clean by hand and how effective any self cleaning functions are.

Flexibility of space
We test the flexibility of space inside ovens with joints of beef, chickens and turkeys on roasting trays to see whether the space provided, and the shelf arrangement, allow them to fit in. We then check whether the ovens are flexible enough to allow another roasting tray to be fitted in above. We carry out this test on both top and main ovens.

Reliability
How reliable this brand of oven is.

Top oven usable volume (l)
This is the actual space that you can use to cook with in the top oven. It's the space available above the lowest shelf in its lowest position up to 3cm below the top of the oven.

Main oven usuable volume (l)
This is the actual space that you can use to cook with in the main oven. It's the space available above the lowest shelf in its lowest position, up to 3cm below the top of the oven.

Child proof
Built-in ovens sometimes come with child locks to stop children from opening the door or turning the oven on.

Self cleaning
Built-in ovens can come with catayltic liners that absorb splashes, pyrolytic programs that burn of food spills at very high temperatures or conventional linings that need to be cleaned manually
