Which would suit your kitchen?
Choose the BOV860 for an everyday second oven
If toast, smaller tray meals and air frying cover most of your week, start by measuring the BOV860. Its smaller cabinet can be a better use of a crowded counter. Check your actual pan and its handles before assuming the smaller oven is enough.
Choose the BOV900 when the extra room has a job
Larger pans, bread proofing or dehydrating make the Pro’s differences relevant. If you would not use those capabilities, a bigger feature list is a weak reason to surrender more counter space. Both ovens need the ventilation and access specified in their manuals.
The deciding check
Put your normal cookware on the shortlist beside the oven. Usable rack space, dish height and cooking routines are more useful than counting eleven versus thirteen functions. We have not measured a head-to-head difference in cooking speed, energy use or crisping.
