I was looking for a replacement for our old toaster oven. We mainly makes toast, I found that this oven has the tendency to make the toast dry and it takes twice as long to toast then our old toaster.. We only eat home made bread. But when I came to cooking other food items such as Quecie and chicken I would not go back to using our regular oven, I found that it cooked each dish evenly.  I do like the two racks that are provided giving us enough room for our cooking need.
