Perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This cooker is a life saver! I purchased it bc my oven went out and I can’t afford a new one at this time. My family has not missed a beat thanks to this. Every meal is cooked just as it would have been in an oven. I absolutely love it!!!

Nice oven
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very nice oven however it was too big for my apartment counter where space is extremely limited. Too bad, it was a good one. Had to return it for something smaller. Amazing deal on sale.

It works...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our initial use of the product came with doubt as the product had a strange "burnt" smell that did not come from the slice of pizza my wife and I warmed up. The next issue was the second use where my wife attempted(but failed) to warm some bread for dinner. The device did not warm up or activate. This was very strange considering that we had JUST opened the product and this was its second use. So far though, the product has been working fine. We see in the next week if this will be a product that stays in our home or if this will need to be returned/replaced.

Best Convection Toaster
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.KitchenAid was known for long since we almost used their product and choice it when buying one. We changed our toaster because of the malfunctioning dials. But so far KitchenAid product (w/ this toaster) never failed me

Awesome oven!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my daughter who wants to bake just like her older sister, so instead of them fighting over the oven they can now bake at the same time and make delicious desserts! Great price and awesome oven, thank you Best Buy!

Nice spacious toaster oven
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't used all of the features this oven has to offer but what i have used so far has been good. Toaster works good although a bit slower to toast than our last cuisinart toaster oven. Overall i am happy with it.

Disappointed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Maybe I got a bad one. Directions say to unplug it when you are not using it. That’s a little scary. The toast uses a timer and that’s your on and off. One time it stayed on so I pulled the plug. My house smelled like electrical burn.. it was strong. The door didn’t shut tight and I could see down inside of the appliance. I saw a complaint online about the same issue someone else had. I returned it. I think it’s discontinued. There’s another kitchen aid model, more expensive, that has a better rating.

Excellent Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this product to replace an older version of the exact product because the toaster option didn't work. The new version I bought is just as good as the old one was when it was newer. Highly recommended.

Great convection toaster
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive had the toaster now for a month or so and I love it. So much quicker for a majority of the items I cook. I have a good oven but it still takes 5-6 minutes to preheat. This was an awesome buy!

Faulty product
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first one was damaged in delivery and Best Buy replaced it. The second one starting having issues after a couple of months of moderate daily use. It seems there must have been a short in the wiring as it wouldn't even turn on half the time we used it no matter what function we used (bake, broil, toast). Then it quick working altogether. We loved the product when it worked, but we're not at all happy that it quit working after the return period.

Good but Bulky
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought it as a gift, but the person considered it too large for their counter space. It seems like a good model, but keep in mind that it's bulky.

awesome
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this product performs perfectly - better than any of the others we have had in the past - convection makes for extreme uniformity and shorter times - it does require some adjustments - not being digital makes it an absolute plus
