It is sleek, compact and does what I need it to do, which is to reheat leftovers and make toast. I wiped it clean before first use, so it didn't smoke or smell bad, no problem. I haven't tried baking or broiling yet, so I can't vouch for how safe or efficient it is on those counts. Most likely I will continue to use my kitchen oven for anything longer than 15 minutes or so. Time will tell. I've only had the thing for a week, so maybe I'll add a star in the future.
