5 Best Ovens In The World (Review) In 2020

The GE JB860SJSS Smooth-Top Double Oven is a popular and modern, freestanding double oven. It wasn’t an easy task choosing the Best Choice product on this list because there are so many ovens to choose from. We were looking for something reliable, attractive, full of features, and still affordable enough for our readers. We could make a list of the most expensive ovens on the market but the truth is, you don’t have to spend thousands to get a great oven like the GE JB860SJSS.

One of the reasons this oven is so popular is the fact that it has two ovens. If you’re the main cook for a big family, you’ll know how useful a dual-element heating system is. You can cook at different temperatures and configure the oven racks into six different configurations for a wide variety of cooking needs. The main oven has a large capacity of 4.4 cubic feet and the smaller oven is 2.2 cubic feet.

The oven has a couple of features that really help with even and precise cooking. The first of these is a technology called True European Convection with Precise Air. This cooking technology uses hot air to cook, which reduces any chances of uneven heating. The other feature is Dual-Element Bake, which utilizes the upper broiling element and the lower baking element to provide perfectly even results every time.

If you don’t have the space for the last oven we looked at, the GE JD630SFSS Electric Smooth-Top Range Oven is basically a smaller model. It doesn’t have all of the same impressive features but it’s still pretty tricked out for an oven at this price. Because it’s only got a single oven, it can fit into a much smaller space as well. The oven has a total capacity of 4.4 cubic feet, which is around the average oven size. It’s definitely big enough for a couple living together or even a small family. But, if you often cook large meals, we’d recommend looking for an oven with more capacity.

The oven has the same dual-element baking system that we saw in the larger GE JB860SJSS. It has a broiling element on top and a baking element underneath that work together to provide perfect, even results. There’s space for two oven racks, which can be configured into seven different positions. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have the same True European Convection technology that we saw in the GE JB860SJSS.

The cooktop has four different heating elements – one small 6-inch hob, two larger 8-inch hobs, and a power boil hob that can be either 6-inches or 9-inches. The power boil hob is definitely the one you will use most often. It heats up super quick and provides powerful consistent heating. The variable size makes it much more efficient than a standard hob as well. This is all covered by a beautiful ceramic glass worktop that’s super easy to wipe clean. If you properly maintain it, it should stay looking brand-new for years, if not decades.

If oven space is important to you, you can’t get any better than a double wall oven. The GE JT5500SFSS Electric Double Wall Oven has a total of 10 cubic feet of space, making it twice the size of your average oven. That means you can easily cook a feast for the whole family without having to reheat anything. The only downside to having a wall-mounted oven is that you have to buy a separate hob, which makes the cost of having this oven even higher.

The two ovens are exactly the same size. The main difference is that the upper oven has True European Convection technology. This adds a third heating element to ensure that your cooking results are perfectly even and consistent throughout. This oven has a 10-pass (pass refers to the number of coils in the heating element) baking element and an 8-pass broil element that work in conjunction with the convection fan. The lower oven doesn’t have a convection fan but it still provides even heating. This oven is perfect for anything that doesn’t need baking or roasting.

The GE JT5500SFSS takes self-cleaning technology to the next level. It cleans itself using the same method as the other two GE ovens we’ve featured – it heats up to 500ºC (900ºF) and turns all of the leftover food into ash, which can be easily removed with a brush or vacuum cleaner. However, this oven also features self-cleaning oven racks. On most self-cleaning ovens, you have to remove the racks and clean them separately, but you can leave them in on the GE JT5500SFSS.

If you’re on the hunt for the perfect oven, it’s going to cost you more than a couple of grand. The Thor Kitchen HRD4803U Electric Oven is the oven we’d choose if money was no object – it’s a professional standard dual oven that would look at home in a Michelin-starred restaurant. But this one is designed for serious cooks to have at home.

If you’re serious about cooking, it’s hard to find an oven that can do it all. In an ideal world, you’d have gas hobs because they provide a precise and instant flame. Plus, they can get hotter than a ceramic or induction hob. Then, for precision baking, you need an electric oven to provide and maintain an even temperature. Problem is, it’s easy to find a fully gas or fully electric oven but much harder to find one that can do both. The Thor Kitchen HRD4803U solves the problem.

The cooktop is easily the most impressive we’ve seen. It has a total of six burners – the front three put out 18,000 BTU and the rear three generate 15,000 BTU. That’s around twice the heat output of your average residential cooker. Of course, that amount of power is pretty useless if you can’t control it properly. Fortunately, the Thor Kitchen HRD4803U has a series of fine-tuning metal dials that allow you to find the perfect temperature. Each burner is protected by its own durable cast-iron grate. The other feature on this cooktop is a stainless-steel griddle burner, perfect for cooking fried eggs, bacon, and anything else you’d cook in a frying pan. The only downside to gas hobs is that they use fossil fuel, but that’s the price you have to pay if you want precise cooking.

The last oven on our list is another high-end, professional-spec oven that has been designed for residential use, the Cosmo DFR486G Freestanding Dual Fuel Range Oven. On the face of it, it looks pretty similar to the Thor Kitchen HRD4803U. Both ovens are amazing appliances and deserving of a place on this list. We’ll let you decide which oven you go for.

The cooktop has an amazing range of different Italian burners, perfect for serious chefs that care about precision heating. The two largest burners generate an impressive 18,000 BTU. Then, there’s a 13,000 BTU Rapid Burner for quick cooking, two 8,500 BTU Semi-Rapid Burners, and a 4,200 BTU Auxiliary Burner. In the middle of these is a griddle pan covered in ridges, which makes it ideal for cooking meat. Out of all of the ovens on this list, the Cosmo DFR486G has the most versatile cooktop by far. It’s gonna take you a while to decide which burner you’re going to use.

Underneath the cooktop sits a couple of electric ovens. Like the Thor Kitchen oven, space is split into a larger and smaller oven. The only problem – and this is our only real complaint about this oven – is that there isn’t a whole lot of space. The larger of the two ovens has 3.9 cubic feet of space, which is smaller than your average residential oven. On the plus side, it has True European Convection heating, so you get perfectly consistent results every time. The convection fan works alongside the broiling and baking elements to provide a three heating element system. The smaller oven has a tiny 1.8 cubic meters of space and is just a standard broil/bake oven.
