THIS OVEN HAS ALL MY LOVIN’
So I bought this oven during the winter when the gas company decided to hike prices while raking in record profits. They do it every year, but this year, it was especially bad. After a $300 gas bill without even turning the heat on, I decided to buy this oven to replace my full-size gas oven (yay, solar panels). After buying this, my gas bill was more than cut in half, and now that prices have come back down, it’s only $20 / month. This oven literally paid for itself.This was hands-down the best purchase of 2023 so far. Are the controls non-intuitive? Absolutely. I mess up and don’t actually start the preheating or don’t actually start the timer at least once a week despite having it for a few months now.Is it difficult to clean? Ehhh. I tried baking a cake I normally do in two layers in 3 smaller layers, and the cake pans overflowed all over the heating elements and bottom tray. It turned into birthday pudding. But the baked-on bits of char came right off once the oven had cooled down, and now there’s not even the lingering smell of failure.Does it cook food so evenly and efficiently that you’ll wonder how you ever cooked before you had it? YOU BET. Having such a small cavity means you use less energy overall compared to a much more voluminous gas oven. When you open the door to put food in, there’s always a temperature drop, but a smaller oven reaches cooking temperature again more quickly because there is less air to heat up inside of it.In fact, when baking muffins and cakes, I’ve actually had to knock about 25F off the cooking temperature (thanks to the fan) and also turn off the top heating element to prevent premature caramelization and burning. OH, did I mention you can control the heating elements independently on a scale from 0 – 100%!?The only downside is that BECAUSE it’s a smaller oven, I’ve had to either buy new pans or accept the fact that I can’t use certain cooking methods. Most 12-cup muffin pans won’t fit. It’s got a maximum clearance of about 14 inches (~35.56 cm) from side to side and a depth (front to back) of about 10 inches (~25.4 cm). The muffin pans with the curved sides won’t fit. You need a straight, rectangular one (which you can find right here on Amazon!) I can actually fit my cast iron skillet in there turned diagonally, though just barely, and there isn’t enough vertical clearance for a Dutch oven of any size.The bottom line: this oven is quality, and you will not regret purchasing it. Whether you’re baking, toasting, roasting, broiling, or just reheating food, everything comes out perfectly.

Great replacement appliance for my oven
My oven broke so I opted to try and find a convection oven/air fryer/toaster to replace it. After doing extensive research I chose this one for the reviews, size, functionality, etc. I am very happy with the purchase! I have baked a whole chicken, cookies, pie, pizza, toast, etc. I am keeping my small basket air fryer to use since I am not sure this works great as an air fryer, maybe it was because I was using parchment paper. I recommend this if you are looking for a toaster/oven combo.

Love the grill!
What I like the best about this oven is that food cooks faster and better than in a conventional oven. After work I have time to make dinner, walk the dog AND work out. This is the ONLY way I cook chicken now. It takes some time to figure out but directions are good. A good rule of thumb is if you’re following a recipe, you have to cut the minutes that you would cook in a conventional oven because the air frier cooks faster. The meat probe I checked against a traditional meat probe and it is always accurate. It has a pull out crumb tray, so it’s easy to clean. As well as, all the trays being dishwasher safe. Though the probe is not.

Cooks the food evenly
Can cook a small turkey quite big actually. Awesome for pizza. It does heat up fast. It has soo many modes also so you can defrost and everything. It does light up when you itâs on!

The All Purpose Mini Oven
It takes some reading and some getting used to but once you start cooking you will be pleased. The good news is, it has multiple functions. The bad news is, it has so many functions it will make your head spin just trying to learn how to use it. The best thing to do is start with one function, get the hang of it, and then try another. Otherwise, you will be so overwhelmed you won’t remember how to turn it on. It comes with a starter cookbook which is a great way to learn how to use it. It also comes with a quick guide and a more comprehensive booklet for those who want to know every detail. It truly is easy to clean. I was amazed at how easy it is to clean the griddle. The griddle makes amazing grilled sandwiches, by the way. And French fries cooked in the air fryer are magnificent! One of the reasons I chose this oven is because the oven door opens down, instead of up, like some do. I don’t have to worry about the door hitting my cabinets above when it is opened. Overall, a great oven and the best alternative to using a standard oven.

The toaster temperature is set at 450 and unchangeable. The oven gets very hot too quickly. When I first turned it on it worked for a few minutes and then when off. Very disappointed.
