What is a European convection oven?
If you’re considering a convection oven purchase, this is the kind you’re going to want. Also called “true convection” and “third-element convection,” European convection ovens use all three elements: heat from the top, heat from the bottom, and heat from a source located near or around the fan at the back of the oven (conventional ovens, or radiant ovens, use just the first two heating elements). While convection ovens generally cook more evenly, units which lack the third heating element typically cook less evenly than their third-element counterparts. In these ovens, a panel covers the third heating element. For this reason, European convection ovens have made a recent push in popularity. So, if you want to enjoy all of the benefits that convection ovens are designed to provide, we recommend that you look for a European convection oven. With the possibilities of cooking food faster combined with the browning capabilities and even cooking, it’s easy to see the benefits of convection
