    • Makes great toast consistently, but not sure how efficient the bake cycle with baked potatoes.
    • It is great feature for baking but it means you can never get something dense toasted and nothing broils because the coils are off more than on.
    • Have yet to try any of the other features, but am hoping that broiling will work as well as toasting.
    • It works very well - toasts evenly, easy to clean, bakes, reheats well, etc.

    • Within two months the bottom of the toast stopped toasting well, and then we realized that the plug portion of the cord had melted into the back of the oven (the slanted portion of it).
    • n’t toast the top at all (pic)
    • I like it better than my previous Hamilton Beach cheap-o oven, but it’s not perfect
    • It's not quite as shiny as when we bought it, but probably because we don't really give it the scrubbing it deserves; we just clean out the tray at the bottom and wash the glass every now and then.
    • Baked items are equally as good as if there were in a normal sized oven
    • Works as it should.
    • The top gets very warm to hot as there is little or no insulation
    • Must be an electricity savings somewhere here as well as it's so efficient.
    • So if say you have a towel, or plate, or cutting board or really anything on the counter in front of it it will slam closed on your hand burning you as you reach in for your toast
