this is one of the best wall microwaves ever. it has so many features and it is very easy to navigate. I can start it from the app on my phone or end it as well. this microwave also has such a satisfying noise when the cycle ends. the color is also quite beautiful
This oven has lots of things you can do with it—except most of them I’d never use, like some “precision cooking” of certain foods most of which I’d never cook: The fact you can’t select your own temperature for the oven makes NO sense. You can only select from their menu which is set every 25 degrees (300, 325, 350 etc). Also you HAVE to be connected to the app for all functions to work. Again, nonsensical. It works but not sure it’s worth the extra cost.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello there,
We’re thrilled that you’ve been impressed by your beautiful new oven; the stylish stainless-steel finish is sure to look fabulous in your kitchen, and we’re so happy that you’ve been enjoying the many fantastic features this model offers. The convenience offered with the SmartHQ app is pushed to the next level with the in-oven camera, and air fry is an excellent way to cook countless crispy creations. We truly appreciate you making Café Appliances part of your home and please know we are here should you need any assistance. -MichaelB@Café
My review is focused 100% on internet connectivity, not on performance. BUYER BEWARE: this model (or at least the model I purchased) requires that you install the SmartHQ app on your phone, and that you then interface with the appliance and the Cloud IN ORDER TO ACCESS ALL OF THE COOKING FUNCTIONS. If you purchase this oven new, and you do not have internet service, or you prefer not to install the SmartHQ app on your phone and interface with the oven, you will be blocked from using some of the cooking modes, for example Air Fry, or Convection Roast until you connect the appliance to the appropriate web site. The Users Manual does not warn you about this - it simply encourages you to install the app on your phone and interface with the appliance.

This wall oven is great. We love all the features and different cooking methods that can be used baking, convection, air fry and more. We love that the shelves slide out easily, it is one of our favorite features. Looks great in out remodeled kitchen and matching appliances.

Congratulations on your kitchen remodeling! We're so glad you're enjoying the oven, and it's a pleasure having you in the Cafe family. Baking and cooking options are pretty important when considering a new oven, and we're happy to hear this one has everything you need. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing features and beautiful looking. Only complaint is the app and connecting to Wi-Fi. Eventually figured that it didn’t like the lengthy Wi-Fi network name. Simplified the name and, voila!
