I bought this oven to replace a Cuisinart Brick Oven that I had for nearly 10 years. I often use this instead of my full size oven. It is large enough for 13 x 9 pan. It's a perfect extra oven for holiday meals. This model makes better toast than the Brick Oven model. Another improvement is that the crumb tray pulls out from the front of the oven as opposed to the back.
