Countertop Convection Oven in Kenya

The Bakewave 5-Tray Countertop Convection Oven is built for Kenyan bakers  who want quality in a compact footprint.

With five 55×45 cm trays, dual high-flow fans, and top-and-bottom heating elements, it delivers uniform colour, reliable lift, and repeatable results without constant pan rotation. The mirror-polished  stainless interior and rounded corners make end-of-shift cleaning fast, while the panoramic double-glazed door and bright side lights let you monitor product without dumping heat.

Why the convection heating matters

Convection ovens move hot air across product for more even heat transfer. In practice, many recipes bake at about 25 °F (≈14 °C) lower than conventional settings, often with shorter bake times, which helps protect delicate lamination and reduces energy per cycle.

Dual fans behind perforated baffles keep air distribution consistent across all five rack levels, so your first-tray and last-tray colour match.

The fan system for the countertop convection oven

Build quality of the countertop convection oven.

The Bakewave 5-tray uses robust sheathed tubular elements above and behind  the cavity for quick preheat and recovery when you open the door. Mechanical front-panel controls (thermostat, timer, and function) are simple for staff to use and easy to service in the field. A high-temperature silicone gasket and beefy hinges maintain a reliable seal, supporting steady chamber temps. The  side racks provide five shelf positions, and the stainless stand (optional) keeps the unit stable while adding storage.

What you can produce with:

Breads & rolls: sandwich loaves, French rolls, burger buns

Pastries & cookies: croissants, danish, pie shells, cookies

Hot kitchen: samosas, sausage rolls, roast vegetables

Each 55×45 cm tray offers generous surface area for small items; the five-tray stack lets you stage mixed loads (e.g., buns up top for colour, cookies mid-deck). 

Because the countertop convection oven typically bakes at a slightly shorter time than deck ovens, you will be able to produce more while spending less on power costs.

The Bakewave cavity’s smooth welds and protected lamp lenses reduce snag points and breakage. Daily wipe-downs while warm keep the mirror-polished steel looking new. For best results, run a 30-minute burn-in before first use, verify thermostat offset with a probe, and perform a simple “cookie test” on all five levels to map your ideal rack positions for breads vs pastries.

Who it’s for

Small to mid-size bakeries, hotel pastry teams, cafés, school canteens, and cloud kitchens that need reliable, even bakes without a large three-phase deck or rotary oven. It’s also a smart second oven for prep kitchens that want to move delicate pastry off the main hot line.

Conclusion:

The Bakewave 5-Tray Countertop Convection Oven combines even airflow, fast recovery, and rugged simplicity in a compact, Kenya-ready package. With five trays, dual fans, and easy-service controls, it helps you turn out consistent bread and pastry all day — while the nature of convection  keeps operating costs in check.

If you’re looking to bake more products at a larger capacity, we would recommend the 6 tray convection oven that is a high end commercial oven, but it still consumes less on power.
