Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've only used this three times since purchasing it a little over a week ago, but works much faster and better than my previous toaster oven. I've only used the 'convection' setting (which is my preferred cooking method), but found the oven heated up quickly and everything I've cooked so far in it cooked evenly, to the doneness anticipated, and within the expected timeframe. I opted for this brand and model because, in reading the owners manuals on a few other convection toaster ovens, they warned against using the ovens beneath cabinets (due to danger of starting a fire due to heat being generated during use) and also cautioned about potential BURNS if making physical contact with the oven exterior. I've found this exterior does get pretty warm, but so far (even when cooking at 400 deg F) it hasn't been nearly hot enough to burn anyone if physically touching it (excepting the glass door, of course -- on which I did not experiment) and unlike the others, there is no warning given about potential for burns if touched. However, the manual DOES say to keep the oven at least 5-6 inches away from any other flammable materials such as cabinets, towels, drywall, etc. If you're searching for a convection toaster/oven, I would suggest you search online for the manufacturer's manual and review it for precautions or other important details before making your final decision. Good luck, and may your meals be fabulous!
