When hungry customers visit a restaurant, café, or other food service establishment, they don’t want to wait too long for their food — and when it arrives, they expect palate-pleasing, quality dishes.
Statistics show that consumers love fast casual dining. The fast casual restaurant sector is projected to reach $337.8 billion by 2032, according to Allied Market Research.
If you’re looking for a quick way to satisfy your patrons’ growling stomachs, tantalize their taste buds, and grow your business, a Prática speed oven ticks all the right boxes.
But what is a speed oven? Let’s discuss how speed ovens work and then cover a roundup of Prática’s best 2024 speed ovens.
What Is a Speed Oven and How Does It Work?
A speed oven combines multiple heat sources inside one space-saving, energy-efficient appliance to deliver an array of delectable snacks, meals, and desserts in lightning-fast time. For example, breakfast sandwiches are ready in 45 seconds – and a whole 16-inch pizza cooks in around three minutes.
A combination of impinged air, microwaves, and infrared radiation power the innovative cooking technology inside our express ovens making them a food service game changer.
Cafés, coffee shops, quick service restaurants, and more can increase traffic, and boost revenue by using a high-speed oven to expand menu options and serve delicious, high-quality food.

Now, here’s a rundown of Prática’s top speed-oven models and some of their unique features
Our newest model, the FIT Express, boasts some notable upgrades. First, it has a larger cavity and a smaller footprint. This means it holds more food and it occupies less physical space.
Plus, two microwave stirrers improve efficiency and provide better distribution of microwaves throughout the cooking chamber. Better airflow maximizes the heating and browning functions.
The FIT Express is perfect for small kitchens, coffee shops, snack bars, fast food restaurants, and hotels. The oven finishes sub sandwiches, bagels, egg bites, chicken wings, and more with the crispy, melty perfection that customers crave.
Impinged air (high-speed air blast) and microwaves work together to deliver scrumptious food in seconds or minutes — which saves your customers and your shop valuable time.
Fit Express Dimensions: (Height x Width x Depth) 25.9 x 15.2 x 27.3 (“) 147.7 lbs.
Fit Express Chamber Dimensions: (Height x Width x Depth) 5.2 x 12.4 x 12.1 (“) 0.45 cu. ft.
The Rocket Express fits just about anywhere and can easily handle larger quantities of food. For instance, you can quickly make two orders of chicken strips or two 12-inch subs at one time.
The larger cavity makes this oven a perfect choice for high-capacity establishments and medium-to-large size businesses. Even though its physical footprint is slightly larger than other models, it’s still compact enough to fit on a countertop.
Rocket Express uses three heat sources — microwaves, impinged air, and an infrared element. Together, these cooking methods deliver consistent, quality, ultra-fast finishes. The ventless oven also enables you to start producing food as soon as the cooking chamber heats up.
This model is perfect for whipping up sub sandwiches, breakfast sandwiches, paninis, chicken wings, and lasagna, to name a few.
Rocket Express Dimensions: (Height x Width x Depth) 25 x 20.9 x 31.7 (“) 194 lbs.
Rocket Express Chamber Dimensions: (Height x Width x Depth) 5.7 x 15.5 x 14.2 (“) 0.74 cu. ft.
There’s nothing better than a crisp pizza crust covered in ooey-gooey cheese — and you can count on Prática’s Forza STi to deliver a savory pie every time. In fact, this model is a superior choice for handling fresh or par-baked dough, and thick or thin crust for pizzas up to 16 inches.
This versatile oven is also the go-to for a wide array of melt-in-your mouth baked goods like chocolate chip cookies, croissants, or pies in minutes. This model uses impinged air and infrared radiation heating sources.
Plus, the Forza STi is stackable. So, you can stack up to two ovens and control each cavity individually. This flexibility allows you to make different dishes in each oven and set their temperatures individually, from 86°F to 626°F. Elegant, lighted glass doors allow you to watch the cooking process.
