Comparison Electrolux SurroundCook EOF 3H40X vs Electrolux SurroundCook EOF 3H50X

Type of guides for installing baking sheets that are used in the oven.

— Frame. Classic guides have the form of slots with protrusions in the side walls of the oven. This design is simple and inexpensive. However, it is not very convenient — when removing baking sheets, you have to pull your hand into a heated oven, which means you will need a mitten or potholder. And the extraction itself may require effort, especially if the guides are dirty and the trays go tight in them.

— Telescopic. Retractable guides on which the baking sheet “leaves” the oven, usually, immediately when the door is opened. Such devices are more convenient than frame ones, but they are more expensive and not suitable for all situations (for example, sometimes to check a dish you only need to open the lid without pulling it out). Therefore, in most models, telescopic guides are only on one level. But telescopic guides on two levels or even three levels already classifies the device as a top segment.

The electrical power consumed by the oven during operation, in other words, the power that must be supplied to the oven so that it can work normally. This parameter determines not only the total energy consumption (and, accordingly, the amount of electricity bills) but also the specifics of the power supply: with a power consumption of several kilowatts, a conventional outlet may not be suitable, and the wiring must be quite reliable.

Note that it is customary to indicate the connection power only for electric models (see "Oven"), as well as for gas devices with electric grills.
