Most singles are 30 inches wide with 4.0-5.0 cu ft—enough for a 12-lb turkey. Measure cutouts: 27", 30", or 36" widths. Doubles stack for high-volume baking.
Convection models (like Café and Thermador) use fans for 25-30% faster, more even cooking. Look for true European convection with multiple elements.
WiFi connectivity (Bosch, GE) lets you preheat via app. Air fry modes expand versatility without extra appliances.
Pyrolytic or high-heat cycles score highest, locking in 900°F+ temps. Predicted reliability favors Bosch and Miele (4/5 stars from owner data).
Requires 240V outlet and precise cabinet framing (28.5" min width for 30" ovens). Professional install recommended ($200-400).
