THE MULTIFUNCTION CONVECTION OVEN
Also known as a fan-assisted oven, a convection oven uses a fan and exhaust
system to circulate hot air evenly around the food, which helps to speed up the
cooking process. “These days, most convection ovens are multifunction ovens,
which offer a number of different functions to choose from to best cook food,”
explains oven expert Colin Jones of Winning Appliances. “Common functions
include baking, grilling, roasting, defrosting and some even offer steam-assisted
functions.” The most popular choice for modern Australian homes, multifunction
ovens come in a huge range of styles, formats and sizes, including compact^
built-in ovens for small spaces, double built-in ovens for keen cooks and striking
freestanding models. Before you buy, Colin suggests thinking about what you’d
change about your current oven, plus what and how you like to cook. “Do you
cook for a small or large household? Do you entertain? Does your kitchen
require a built-in oven or not? What kind of fuel do you prefer? Once you’ve
answered these, you’ll really be able to filter your options down,” he says.

Side-by-side ovens not
only look super slick, but
each one is also easy to
access. In order to create
a coherent kitchen design,
try to tie in other fixtures,
such as tapware – as seen
here in this stylish black
tapware from Phoenix.

“CONSIDER WHAT YOU LIKE TO COOK AS


THIS WILL DICTATE THE functions


TO LOOK FOR IN YOUR OVEN”
