Verified Purchase:Yes
TL;DR: Use this more than my oven now.
EXPECTATIONS:
* Cooked frozen leftover pizza, comes out toasty like it was fresh.
* Baked a lasagna in here tastes the same as if baked in oven but preheat was a bit faster.
* Made toasted bread products and toasted up store bought croissants and works great, nice and flaky outside soft and moist inside.

NOT TRIED / CONS:
* Didn't see a self clean option (makes sense), but that stops me from trying to cook bacon and similar messy foods in it.
* Would have liked the red option that's available in lower models.
* Making grilled cheese is still easier on a stove top, I might need to use higher temperature settings though.

NOTE:
* I owned an older model of this before (over 5 years ago). Gave that to a friend when I moved and she loves it...running strong. Added features to the newer model just make it that much nicer.
* Still use my oven to cook large or mass quantity items (e.g. 2 dozen cookies at a time).
* Drip tray is a bit different, but seems to work well. Not sure the change was necessary but so far hasn't been an issue.
