Often pondered on this. Is the large fan oven more economic at 180 on fan, or the little top oven with no fan at 200C . Mrs Bouquet

It depends on what you're putting in it. The smaller oven should be more economic as you're heating a much smaller area, but both shouldn't use up much leccy keeping them up to temperature. I wouldn't try cooking a turkey in the smaller one though!

Turkey got cooked at Christmas, outside on the bbq !!
Now its just me heating a pre-cooked quiche or pie, that sort of thing. Just pastry really which cannot go in the Micro-wave. Thanks, Mrs Bouquet

Difficult to say, but if you have a smart meter you can measure the power consumption from both.

Agree with GG - fan ovens distribute the heat more efficiently but I reckon that would be more than offset by the much larger oven size.
