BEST COUNTERTOP MINI OVENS TO SUIT YOUR KITCHEN SPACE

Energy efficiency has become the number one consideration when buying new
household appliances.

Higher living costs mean we’re looking to make savings where we can, no matter
how small. Microwaves and air fryers are enjoying a boom in sales as they use
less energy to cook meals and snacks than the hob and oven.

These machine marvels are great, but often only offer one function. If you’re
looking for a countertop device that can do more, a mini oven ticks most boxes.



Perfect for small flats, tiny caravan kitchens or for having as a secondary oven
to use when you’re whipping up dishes for big events like Christmas, mini ovens
heat up rapidly meaning they can reach the desired temperature and cook
ingredients far more efficiently than a traditional oven. Most options offer
functions in addition to reheating, like roasting, grilling and baking - and
some even come with an air-frying option too.

Whether you’re making mini pizzas or want the heavenly scent of freshly baked
pain au chocolat filling your home on a weekend morning, a compact mini oven can
make it happen, and at the snip of the pre-heating time of regular ovens.

They won’t burn a hole in your wallet either; most range from the £40 mark to a
couple of hundred pounds depending on the make and the functions offered.

NINJA FOODI 10-IN-1 MULTIFUNCTION OVEN DT200UK

Ninja

Best: overall

Offering a whopping 10 functions in a device that measures just 50.5 x 43.5 x
33.5cm, Ninja’s mini oven is as impressive as the rest of its kitchen
appliances. This compact machine can cook pizza, grill, roast, bake, toast and
crisp bagels perfectly across three racks. Oh, and it can air fry too, allowing
you to enjoy previously guilty pleasures for a fraction of the oil.

The mini oven can make mains and sides simultaneously saving you from having to
clean extra appliances and it can do it up to 40 per cent faster than a
conventional fan oven. It’s perfect for big-family homes and small kitchens to
replace a conventional oven.

SAMSUNG EASY VIEW™ CONVECTION MICROWAVE OVEN WITH HOTBLAST™ TECHNOLOGY, 28L

Samsung

Best for: programming gold

Using convection technology to cook food more efficiently, Samsung’s countertop
oven is practically indistinguishable from a regular microwave. The stealthy
helper offers six power levels and a whopping 39 programs to help you cook
whatever is on the table.

One of its biggest draws is HotBlast Technology which zaps your foodstuffs with
heat from multiple air holes so it cooks nice and evenly. There’s also SLIM FRY
which is essentially an air frying function and ECO Mode to save money on bills
when the unit is on standby.

OUR PLACE WONDER OVEN

Our Place

Best for: aesthetics

The six-in-one appliance from Our Place comes with an air frying function, but
it can also bake, roast, toast, reheat, and broil, making it an invaluable piece
of kitchen tech.

The compact dimensions make it ideal for small households or spaces - for
instance, you could feasibly use it in a caravan as long as you have mains
power. Steam infusion ensures food comes out crispy on the outside and juicy
inside: the best combination for everything from fries and wings to cookies.

Comes with a one-year warranty and a 100-day trial period.

using convection cooking to get deliciously crispy results with practically zero
oil. The Element iQ® System directs heat to where it’s needed so there are no
cold or raw spots when the timer pings. Monitor things through the window and
adjust where needed on the clear LCD display.

Like all electricals sold by John Lewis, it comes with a two-year guarantee
included.

Igenix

Best for: party catering

Whether you've got a roaring appetite or you just fancy a little snack, this
mini oven from Igenix can help satisfy your stomach. The 30L capacity is
generous enough to use as your main cooking appliance if you're in a small home
while keen hosts might also appreciate the gadget to help when they're throwing
a dinner party. It's loaded with four functions and runs on 1500W, while taking
up about the same countertop room as a standard microwave.

Verdict

Hand a P45 to the rest of your kitchen appliances; they'll be out of work the
moment you unwrap your new Ninja mini oven. What bowled us over the most was the
number of cooking functions, followed by the double tray that let you do more in
the same amount of space.

That said, it is quite expensive. If you're looking for a souped-up microwave,
Samsung's version takes it to the next level and offers an air fryer-like
function that you'll find yourself using more than you think.
