At first I couldn't decide if I should purchase this compact BOV650XL or the more expensive BOV800XL, at the end I picked the 650XL.
This is a well made toaster oven although the outside does get very hot when in use and that is a big minus therefore 4-star.

When I toast fresh bread I use 6 on the dial and the oven does get some moisture afterward and I was told by Breville Company that it is normal. Toasts get crisp and even on top and grill marks on bottom due to the rack. Haven't tried to bake cookies yet. All in all I am happy with the purchase.

If I were to purchase a toast oven again I would choose the Breville BOV800XL, because this one can accommodate 13 pizza pan(comes with the oven), magnetic auto reject rack(very helpful), back lit easy-read LCD panel(can be seen even in dark area) plus the convection feature. These extra features really worth the extra $70 over the BOV650XL.
