Shopping for a new double wall oven can be an exciting, but stressful time. There are so many things to consider and options available that it can be overwhelming to say the least. Generally, most kitchen appliances have a 10 to 15-year lifespan so making a purchase is a big commitment.

We’ve put together a simple guide below with tips on what to consider before shopping and features to look for to help you select the best double wall oven for your kitchen.

The Benefits of Double Wall Ovens

Double wall ovens provide greater flexibility and efficiency in the kitchen. Whether you’re prepping for a big family dinner or baking multiple dishes at once, these ovens make multitasking easier.

Here are a few standout benefits:

Cook at Two Different Temperatures: Prepare a roast in one oven while baking a pie in the other without any temperature conflict.
Keep Food Warm: One oven can be used to keep finished dishes warm while others continue cooking.
Elevated Installation: Wall ovens are often installed higher up for easier access—no more bending down to check your food.
Seamless Kitchen Flow: Double ovens offer a clean, built-in look that blends beautifully into modern kitchen designs.

If you love entertaining or simply enjoy the convenience of advanced cooking options, a double wall oven could be a great addition to your kitchen.

Did you know?

To loosen up the grime inside your oven, you can bake a combination of baking soda, vinegar, and water in an oven-safe bowl on low heat for 40 minutes. Then turn off the oven, and wipe it down once it cools.

Things to Consider Before Shopping

There are a few things to consider before you start shopping to ensure you purchase the right model for your kitchen.

Measure Your Space

Measure the space you have before purchasing and installing a new oven. Knowing the amount of space you have to install your new double wall ovens will make it easier when deciding which one to buy.

Check for Hookups

Make sure that you have the appropriate hookups installed for your oven ahead of time. This will make installation and setup easier and save you stress down the road.

Set a Budget

Determine your budget. This can make a big difference in the size, style, and features available.

Consider Must-Have Features

Are there any specific features you know you want in your oven? Things like Wi-Fi capability, convection cooking settings, and Air Fry settings are great to have and can help you narrow down the options within your price range.

Choose Your Color/Finish

Choose a color and finish that will match the aesthetic of your kitchen. Whether you want your wall oven to seamlessly blend into your kitchen or be a statement piece, Van Vreede’s can pair you with the right model to meet your needs.

We love Viking’s selection of brightly colored double wall ovens if you are looking for a statement piece and Monogram offers the perfect double wall oven from their Minimalist Collection that will seamlessly blend into your kitchen.

Pick a Door Style

Determine which direction you would like your doors to open. Double wall ovens are available with traditional oven doors that swing down, doors that swing to the left or right, and French door options.

The available space and walk paths through your kitchen should be considered in this choice.

Recommended Double Wall Oven Features

There are so many amazing features available in wall ovens that can make your life easier and level up your cooking game. These are just a few of the amazing features we suggest considering in your purchase.

InstaView® from LG

LG’s InstaView® allows you to simply knock twice on the door of your oven to see the oven’s interior. This allows you to quickly check on your food without having to open the door or search for the oven light button on the control panel.

This LG Studio Smart InstaView® Electric Double Oven is one of our favorite models.

Self-Cleaning Mode

Wall ovens with self-cleaning features can be a game-change and make chore time a breeze. Look for models with self-cleaning features or easy-clean finishes to make your life easier.

Convection Cooking

Convection ovens use a fan to blow the heat around the oven cavity leading to more even and accurate temperatures. This is great for foods that you want to crisp like potatoes, veggies, pizza, or roasts.

Air Fry Setting

Similar to a convection oven, air fry settings utilize fans to blow the heat around your food at higher temperatures. Double wall ovens with air fry will help you bake perfectly crisped foods you love without the oil and added calories of traditional frying.

Wi-Fi Capability

With Wi-Fi capability, you can monitor your oven from another room. Smart double wall ovens also allow you to adjust the temperature and shut the oven off when needed. Some apps will also give you diagnostics letting you know when to clean your oven and even when it may need maintenance.

Fingerprint Resistant Finish

A fingerprint-resistant finish will help to prevent fingerprints from appearing on the oven meaning you can spend less time cleaning your oven's exterior. This is perfect for high-trafficked kitchens or homes with children.

Maintenance and Care for Double Wall Ovens

A double wall oven is a big investment, so keeping it in top shape will help extend its lifespan and maintain cooking performance. Regular care also makes your oven safer and more efficient.

Clean Spills Quickly: Wipe up spills as soon as the oven has cooled. This prevents food from burning onto surfaces during future cooking sessions.
Check and Clean Door Seals: The rubber gasket around the oven door ensures proper insulation. Inspect it regularly and clean it with mild soap and water to keep heat from escaping.
Wash Racks Separately: Remove racks during self-clean cycles and wash them with warm, soapy water to prevent discoloration or warping.
Inspect Vents and Fans: Make sure airflow isn’t blocked and that fans are free of debris. Proper ventilation helps maintain consistent cooking temperatures.
Schedule Professional Maintenance: Every few years, consider having your oven inspected by a technician to ensure electrical components, fans, and sensors are working properly.
