The first decision you'll have to make when choosing an oven is whether you want a gas or electric oven. Both have their pros and cons, so here is a list of the main differences:

 

Gas ovens:

Heat up more quickly than electric ovens.
Are cheaper to operate than electric ovens.
Can provide a smoky and crispy flavor to food.
Require a gas installation, which can be expensive.

Electric ovens:

Are easier to install than gas ovens.
Provide even cooking thanks to their heat distribution.
Do not require a gas source, which is convenient for some people.
Are more expensive to operate than gas ovens.

How to choose the best oven for your needs:

To choose the best oven for your needs, you should consider the following factors:

Your budget
The available space in your kitchen
The type of food you plan to cook
Your frequency of use
Your skill level in the kitchen
Once you have considered these factors, you can decide whether a gas or electric oven is better for you. You should also consider the brand and model of the oven, as some have special features such as self-cleaning or pre-set cooking programs.

How to use an oven correctly:

To use an oven correctly, it is important to follow these instructions:

Read the manufacturer's instructions before using the oven for the first time.
Preheat the oven before cooking to ensure even cooking.
Use the correct accessories for cooking (trays, grills, etc.).
Do not open the oven door too frequently during cooking.
Clean the oven regularly to avoid the buildup of residues.
