This oven is attractive and has quick buttons that I use frequently. It is not hard to understand or use, minor questions are answered in the user guide. The lighting is very dim (whether the door is open or closed) and needs improvement. It operates fairly quietly and gets the job done. I used the potato setting and had 2 of the microwave potatoes with the plastic on them-I stopped it with a remaining 1.5 minutes because I felt it was cooking a long time--they were done so maybe the plastic throws off the timing I don't know. Melting./softening butter was a snap and this button is a wonderful addition to my kitchen! It seems like sometimes I have to touch the buttons a bit more firmly then what I would call normal--but it might just be me. I've had it about a week and I am still becoming accustomed to the differnces of my previous one. The interior is easy to clean and looks nice. In general it seems likie a nice oven.
