Type
Dual fuel models have an electric oven and gas cooktop. Electric models have an electric oven and electric (ceramic, induction or solid hotplate) cooktop.
Cooktop
The cooktop can be gas, ceramic, induction or solid hotplate.
Width
Oven width measured in centimeters (cm).
Number of cooking zones
Cooktop performance
We assess how well the cooktops can cook a white sauce (and melt chocolate for electric and gas cooktops, and induction cooktops without a simmer zone) on a low heat setting, their control responsiveness and turn-down ability by cooking rice using the absorption method, and their high heat setting by cooking a vegetable and beef stir-fry.
enter value/s in increments of i between 71 and 99
Oven performance
We assess oven performance through multi-shelf cooking (scones), low temperature cooking (meringues), roasting (a whole chicken), base cooking (pizza) and grilling (toast).
enter value/s in increments of i between 67 and 94
Oven running costs over 10 years
Based on using the oven at 170°C for one hour, three times per week for 10 years at 40c/kWh. Where available, the fan-forced function is used to calculate; if not, the fan-assist is used.

Shop Ethical rating
Oven ease of use score
We compare the ease of use of the controls, their location, clarity of the labels, using and cleaning the grill as well as the interior and exterior surfaces of the oven.
enter value/s in increments of i between 54 and 78
Roasting score
We roast a whole chicken to assess baking performance on a non-uniform food at a moderate to high temperature over a long period, while retaining moisture and crisping the skin.
enter value/s in increments of i between 70 and 100
Grilling score
Toast is made under the grill to assess the grill area for how quickly it toasts bread and how evenly the heat is distributed.
enter value/s in increments of i between 10 and 100
High temperature base cooking score
A freshly prepared pizza is cooked at a very high temperature for a short period to assess the ability to crisp and brown the base and evenly cook the toppings.
enter value/s in increments of i between 65 and 100
Low temperature baking score
Meringues are baked to assess cooking ability at a low temperature for a long period.
enter value/s in increments of i between 60 and 100
Low temperature cooking score
We make a white sauce to test the cooktop's ability to work on the low heat setting.
enter value/s in increments of i between 70 and 100
Melting chocolate score
We also melt chocolate to assess how well the cooktop works on the low heat setting. This test is conducted on all electric and gas cooktops, as well as induction cooktops that don't have a simmer cooking zone. For induction cooktop that have a simmer zone, they receive an automatic 100% for melting chocolate.

Self-cleaning surfaces (catalytic liners)
Often referred to as 'self-cleaning' surfaces, catalytic liners work by absorbing fat splatters. You need to regularly heat the oven to 250°C for an hour to burn off the splatters and wipe them with a damp cloth when cool.
Storage drawer
This is a drawer underneath the oven, ideal for storing baking trays and accessories.
Fan forced
This setting works well for multi-shelf cooking, reheating, pastries and roasts. It uses the fan with heat coming from the element surrounding it and generally heats up more quickly, evenly and efficiently.
Fan grill
This setting uses the grill element and the fan. It's ideal for large cuts of meat like roasts, or meats that require longer cooking times like chicken legs and sausages. It's also great for baked vegetables and for browning and crisping the top of pasta/potato bakes.
Grill only
This uses heat from the grill element and is ideal for smaller, tender cuts of meat. Check the instructions to see whether you can grill with the door opened or closed.
Smokeless grill tray
Clock
Timer
Pizza mode
Models that have bottom plus fan mode, bottom plus fan-forced mode, or a specific pizza mode.
Self-cleaning function (pyrolytic)
True self-cleaning ovens are pyrolytic. Set on the cleaning mode, the oven locks itself and heats up to around 500°C, converting food residues into ash, which you wipe away when it cools.
Cooktop material
Measured internal oven volume (L)
Measured internal volume is calculated from measurements of the deepest tray or shelf in the lowest position to the grill element, side wall to side wall, and the rear wall to the door.

Availability
A Similar model is identical in most aspects except for a few. This means that a majority of its test results are identical so you can reasonably expect to get the same results from the model we tested, but for those aspects which aren't identical, we'll note these as "Not Tested" in the Compare tables.
A Tested model refers to a model that is still current and available in the Australian market. You should be able to order this model through your local retailer, or find it online.
These models can't be found in retailers or online or are no longer manufactured. You may still find these models on second hand websites, or in second hand dealers. Test methods may change over time, so criteria which can't be directly compared will contain an N/A.
An Identical model is exactly that. Performance characteristics will be identical and the only difference will be something trivial such as colour, which won't have an impact on performance.
These are models we haven't yet tested but that are available.
