I am loving this oven, best toast I've made in years. Broiler works great, and the oven temp is spot on temp per a good thermometer. Some people comment that it is confusing to use, but so far so good here. Just pay attention to the blue light options and hit start. I do sometimes grab the booklet to see where the oven rack should be positioned. I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars because: the oven is not very tall, and it's kinda dicey to stick hands in to grab toast, especially as there is a lip on the front of the rack. (The toast needs to be "lifted" instead of just sliding forward and out.) I use small tongs to pull the rack out and grab the toast. Secondly, it needs a light! (I keep a small flashlight nearby, and use it often)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not as big as I thought it would be, but for a smaller kitchen it's just the right size. Easy to program, heats up quickly, and lets you know when the desired temp has been reached. Biggest plus for me is how quiet it is - this oven is replacing one made by another company that was frankly so loud one had to raise their voice to be heard over it.

The coffee pot drips. The plastic snap-on top is a bad design. Send it back to the test engineer. The top is not suppose to retain coffee after the brew cycle. Coffee must be in the pot, not in the snap-on top. It drips as you pour making a mess.

This is a nice- looking, mostly good 12 cup coffee brewer. On the good side, it has a sleek modern exterior design, and very easy to use controls. It’s fast and makes a more than decent cup of coffee. On the negative side, I dislike the carafe that comes with it. It opens only after you pry it open from the back hinge which is awkward and impossible if your hands are wet. Second, it does not empty completely when you turn it over for washing. Residual water stays in the carafe no matter how hard you try to remove it. You have to towel it dry each time or you get stale water in your newly brewed coffee. Sound like small potatoes? No. The carafe is just not well designed. But I still give this a very good rating for its other good attributes.

This appliance was purchased as a replacement for an earlier model but quality has eroded. Labels on buttons quickly wiped off so memorize their purposes because the labels disappear. The tray is lighter weight than previous model and I suspect I’ll soon need to again replace this toaster-oven.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
