Please Read Before Buying This Oven
I was captivated by the many glowing reviews about this oven and thought when purchasing it that surely this would be a winner. Caveat Emptor, this can be a LEMON. I often depend on reviews in determining what to buy online and most of the time they are quite accurate. I thought that perhaps something might be wrong with the way I was using it until, wading through all the reviews, I found other people whose complaints mirrored my own.
For example when toasting, no matter where the rack is located, or at what setting, the bread gets burned--charcoaled--in the same places, at the back and on the top. Uneatable.
When baking macaroni and cheese at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, half the dish was done properly, and half was absolutely cold.
When broiling, the food gets burned so rapidly, even while being watched, it is ruined.
I know that most people are raving about this oven, but you too could be the unwitting buyer like me, and others whose reviews are buried farther down, and get one that behaves as ruinously as ours. The point is, there are too many instances of poor performance recorded here to ignore.
