I have had conventional toaster ovens before, but this is the first time I purchased a convection model.  I like it.  The convection oven has a more consistent temperature in the oven.  No hot or cold spots.  As with the convection stoves, cooking time is less.  My only complaint was that it did not come with an owner's manual, and I could not locate one on the manufacturer's website.  However, the controls were easy to figure out without it.
