This oven is not what we originally planned on buying, but it ended up being exactly what we needed! My wife hated our old oven, which came with our house that we bought 8 years ago, but it worked so we never did anything about it. Well, it finally kicked the bucket recently. I am the type of person who does a lot of research before buying anything, so I had our choices narrowed down to only a couple ovens. When we went to purchase one my choices were not available, but the salesman directed me to this oven, and I'm glad he did. It has been a great addition to our kitchen, and my wife and I are enjoying it very much.
