Amana 30-Inch Electric Double Oven with Upper Convection AEW4630DD

Date Published: 8/14/06

The Amana Double Oven AEW4630DD is a solid performer that can save you a few dollars over some of the better selling brands. If you're looking for outstanding value, don't pass by this affordable option. With many of the same features as Jenn-Air and KitchenAid models, this unit can often be found at a savings of about $200.

Although only the upper oven offers convection, most users don't find this to be too terribly inconvenient. Simply use the upper oven for more sensitive and longer cooking foods such as baked goods and roasted meats. Save the lower unit for simpler dishes such as casseroles, vegetables, and baked potatoes. It may take a bit of planning, but opting for convection in only the upper oven is a practical way to save some money when making such a large investment. Well-engineered, the AEW4630DD's upper oven utilizes a third element-style convection system, which adds an additional electric heater to the oven. Other models may opt to simply add a fan to the simpler two-element unit. Converting recipes to use in this convection cycle is quite easy thanks to an automatic time and temperature conversion setting. Simply enter the usual cooking time and temp, and the oven computes the new convection settings.

Easy to keep clean, this model offers three variable self-cleaning cycles in both the upper and lower cavities. The days are over when choosing the wrong oven for preparing a dish left you with a sticky, messy lower oven, while the self-cleaning upper oven stayed clean and shiny. Additional features of interest include an electronic temperature system that preheats to exact temperature (not simply for a pre-set time period) and an upper oven cook-and-hold setting. Eye appealing as well as functional, the Amana 30-Inch Electric Double Oven with Upper Convection AEW4630DD is available in a finish to enhance any color scheme. Choose from black, white, or stainless steel.

Pros: can be a money saving option, offers 2 self-clean ovens, has convection
Cons: convection is offered in only one cavity
