I love the look of the CAFE' oven. However, there are a couple of things I wish were improved. For instance, the temperature controls only let you choose preset temperatures. It does not give you the choice of choosing the temperature in 25 degree increments. You get 300,325,350 etc. I like to be able to choose my own temps. Also, the timer isn't very loud. When the cooking time is up, you really have to listen to hear it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Oven temperature is defaulted to scroll in 25° deg increments. To set a specific temperature, press and hold on the temperature and a number pad will come up to enter a specific value. Then press Start to enter. This specific information can be found on page 7 of the Owner's Manual - https://images.salsify.com/image/upload/s--GSdtwv7l--/23be88bd14be6db37324f91154fdf9b7b65fb3c8.pdf. The instructions for adjusting the sound can be found on page 9.
If I didn't have wifi, I would not be able to use all the cooking modes. This is not disclosed during the sale process.

I love everything about this oven!! The only thing that I regret, is not getting the french door model that was my first choice. Wonderful oven with super good features.. Easy to control, Convection is great and it distributes temperature good

This model features an in-oven camera that allows you to check status from anywhere without opening the oven door. We're glad to hear you're enjoying your new oven, and we're confident it'll continue to impress for many years.
This is my third Cafe convection oven. It performs well, but functionality is limited by the vertical space taken up by the slide out shelves. Effectively, only one shelf at at time is useful for anything but cookie sheets or dishes limited to 2inches in height. Most casserole lids have a raised handle on top which prevents them from use. I preferred the former configuration with one "glide" shelf and two standard shelves. For seniors with dexterity and fingertip sensitivity limitations, the touch controls are a challenge. However, so are knobs for different reasons and the smooth front is great for aesthetic and safety reasons.
This multifunctional oven is a dream !!!! this was a great upgrade to our kitchen. The controls are user friendly , convection, air fryer, and bake all work wonderfully.
