Double Oven Review - Smaller Oven on Top & a Larger Oven on the Bottom |
If You're Thinking About Getting a Double Oven Stove - Here's some Feedback
For years I insisted that once we were in the market for a new stove, we would get a stove with a double oven. We have a large family, and a double oven is necessary to handle the large meals that are required when everyone gets together for a celebration - especially Christmas!
Finally, it happened - a new stove was required - and finally we did in fact get that Double Oven Stove.
I learned a few things about a Double Oven since then, and thought I would share them with those looking for the same type of stove.
What I Like About the Double Oven Stove
- It's extremely handy when you have to prepare a large meal. The second oven is very useful, especially in warming up pre-made dishes
- It looks really impressive and modern
- Love not having to clean stove-top inserts like we had to with the old stove
- We've had it for a few years, and so far there's been no problem with it
- We took the extra step of getting a double oven stove with a convection oven - that's handy once in a while
- It's self clean (which I really appreciate)
- Cooks the food nicely
- Easy to use
What I Don't Like About a Double Oven Stove
- There are two types of Double Oven Stoves I could have selected - One with the smaller oven on
Double Oven with Two Ovens the Same Size - I'm not a fan of a flat-top (so I discovered) - Yes, there are advantages to it (looks good, no grills to clean), however I find it marks up a bit too easy for my liking. We do keep it clean, but it's never perfect like it was when we bought it.
- Our old stove had an electrical outlet built into it, this newer model oven doesn't
- Although the convection oven is handy once in a while, for our family it's a bit of waste of money - so if I had to choose another one, I would select one without a convection oven built-in. We just don't use it enough to justify the added cost.

Two Full Ovens |
The answer to that is yes. The reason I say yes is that it's in an affordable price range for us, and although point number 1 in the 'don't like' column above does bother me, the convenience of having two ovens without doing a major renovation is worth it.
If I were doing a full kitchen reno, then no, I wouldn't get this double oven stove; I would have two separate ovens installed one above the other and get a stand alone stove-top installed on the counter.
