I've wanted a side opening oven for years and now I finally have it!  My husband was shocked when he saw the price but I convinced him it would be worth it.  I am thrilled with the side opening doors, I don't know why all ovens don't have this option, they should.  It's just the best thing ever.  I haven't used the oven that much but when I have everything has cooked wonderfully.  My 2nd favorite thing is the gliding rack, another awesome feature.  Only negative thing is I really thought I got one of these racks in each of the ovens, so I was bummed that there was only one.....  That was a let down, especially when you're spending this amount of money.  It looks great in my kitchen.   I would recommend this oven.
