It seems to work fairly well, overall. It does have some unusual issues. It takes longer to heat up than our previous toaster over, though perhaps that's because it's bigger. It maybe takes twice as long, however. It also doesn't have a light in the oven. So nothing says "it is working." Also, the control panel stays on and blinks for several minutes after it shuts off. It's just strange. There doesn't seem to be a way to turn this off. Lastly, the bake temp doesn't go above 400. If you want 450 or more you have to use roast.
