Good points:: Very efficient and easy to use.
Bad points:: The only difficulty I have is working out the oven temperature as it is not divided up in lots of 10 degrees and I have to guess which is 190 etc.

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: Having not had a fan oven before I find this much more economical as it heats up more quickly and cooks at a lower temperature.
I was worried about cleaning the ceramic top but if you do it regularly with a recommended cleaner it is no problem and looks sparkling.
Bad points:: So far I haven't discovered the re setting of the clock to a 12 hour clock instead of a 24 hour one but it doesn't matter much and it's probably my stupidity.

Main heating type	Convection
Conventional ovens heat from the bottom so the top of the oven will be slightly hotter than the bottom. This is useful when you’re cooking lots of different dishes at a time. However, they do take a little longer than fan ovens to heat up. Convection (or fan) ovens circulate the air so that you get an even temperature throughout the oven. They are quicker to heat up which means they save on energy and time. Multifunction (convection or conventional) ovens give you the flexibility to use different methods of cooking. They usually have both fan and conventional settings as well as pizza settings that will only cook from the bottom, giving you a crispy pizza, or top-only cooking that is very useful for browning.
Type of self cleaning	Catalytic
Self-cleaning ovens can come with catalytic liners or pyrolytic programmes. Calalytic liners are the bumpy surfaces which line the inside walls of the oven. They absorb the food and grease and break it down so that the oven is easier to clean. Pyrolytic programmes run for a couple of hours and burn off all the grime in your oven at temperatures up to 500°C. As it gets so hot, the oven door usually locks so that all you need to do is sweep up the ash that’s left over at the end.
