Space-Saving Design
Single ovens come with a single cooking compartment. They are ideal for families or individuals who cook small meals regularly. It can be set up at eye level or in a specialty cabinet beneath the counter. A double oven is typically installed in the wall at eye level and can be used for cooking large meals or hosting.
Both models are available in different sizes and styles that can be customized to fit different kitchen layouts. Some models also come with distinctive features that help them distinct from other models. For example, some offer self-cleaning options that significantly improve the cleaning process and eliminate the need to manually scrub. Certain appliances have catalytic stay clean lines that automatically clean the interior of the appliance each time you use it.
Another alternative is to combine an oven in the wall with a separate cooktop appliance to create a functional cooking zone in your kitchen. This design can enhance your cooking appliances while maintaining a coordinated layout and reduces the space needed to store your counter. You can also switch between electric and gas cooking if you prefer.
You can also put your oven perpendicularly to the counter top, which can help define this area and reduce traffic congestion. However, be sure to leave drop off counter space adjacent to the oven to make it easier when opening and closing the door.

Self-Cleaning Options
For the busy homeowner having an oven with self-cleaning capabilities can be a huge time saver. Self-cleaning cycles can use steam or high temperatures to eliminate food residues and soil. The steam cycle is designed for light soil "between" cleanings, while the high-temperature cycle helps remove even the most stubborn foods and smoke. Certain models require that the oven be preheated prior to starting a self cleaning cycle. Others will automatically heat the oven while cleaning.
When you use the self-cleaning feature, it's important to carefully adhere to the instructions of the manufacturer. The oven's heating elements as well as the oven's door will become extremely hot during the self-cleaning process, and both can be damaged due to the extreme heat. Certain models require that the grid for brokers, the brokers pan or any other cookware be removed before running the self-cleaning cycle.
Steam ovens and high-heat ovens emit unpleasant odors that can remain for a prolonged period of time in the kitchen. The fumes that these ovens emit could cause irritation to pets and children, as well as people with respiratory problems. It is best to run this cycle before the grime has accumulated in large quantities. Also, ventilate the room as the oven is working.
Although it's not recommended to use the self-cleaning option regularly, most people do find that having an oven with this feature makes life much easier. The biggest disadvantage is that the models with this feature are more expensive than models that do not have self-cleaning. If you're on an extremely tight budget but still want the convenience of an oven with this feature, think about buying one that allows you to end the self-cleaning cycle after it has begun. You can save money and shield your oven from damage by purchasing one that allows you to end the self-cleaning cycle after it has started.
