When my wall oven died, I was in need of something to cook for my toddler on a budget. I went with the KitchenAid oven because it is spacious and chemical-free. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. It IS a countertop oven ,i have not had to adjust any of my recipes, from breads, muffins, cassaroles, seafood etc... I am not even going to replace my wall oven, this is all i need! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
