We bought this because it looked great and would hold two small pizzas which our grandchildren eat constantly.  However, for toasting bread it's slow and uneven.  We noted the crumb tray was NOT on the top of the bottom heat coil, which we thought would lead to even toasting.  It does not.  Toast only works on Dark.  Warming food, baking food work fine, although we don't do anything other than warm up left overs so we really can't judge.  Again--it looks great!  We appreciate the knob having a texture so they can be turned when you're hands have food on them.
