My original oven was 23 years old and was not baking correctly, plus I was having trouble with the oven door, etc.  My cookies never did seem to turn out right so my sons decided to help us buy a new oven, and after doing some research, I chose this LG oven.  I am still learning all the functions, but so far, it has far exceeded my expectations.  After having an oven that I had to adjust baking times all the time, this has been a breeze to work, but have to constantly remind myself that this oven works, and not like my other one.This oven fits perfectly in my kitchen and has added a bit of charm to it as well. A win win for me.  PS--the cookies turn out wonderful and my grandson sneaked almost a whole batch telling me after he ate them all that they were the best he has had!!!  Another win, win for g'ma!!
