I purchased this oven to replace my beloved 32qt toaster/convection/rotisserie oven...which was larger, but no longer available. To say the least I was skeptical at first because I missed my old oven! Needed one ASAP and researched them for about a week and decided on this one. Again this oven has the same features, just smaller and the accessories are lighter in weight, for me, this is part of letting go of the past and just nitpicking. When I used my 5qt enameled cast iron dutch oven to bake bread...the rack permanently bowed. The rotisserie spit is lighter and the forks are shorter. All the accessories are off sized just enough that it's very difficult to replace. Now saying what I didn't like...I'll tell you what I love!!! This oven heats up super fast, really fast and cools down fast too. The outside doesn't get too hot, and will not melt items in the area, even at top temps. I just love the door! It's a double door just like a full sized oven. Plus you can remove the inner glass to clean. And the door has double springs, which is very important for repeated use and heavy wear. So far it has been very easy to clean. I have used multiple setting to make a variety of meals. I baked two 9"x13"x1" pans at the same time on different levels to make a chocolate truffle torte. Surprisingly the cakes turned out well by using the alternating levels and turning the pans method. They were moist, level and had a good crumb. I've baked sticky buns, cookies, cakes and crumb cakes, and multiple types of yeasted breads. Sweet potatoes, baked potatoes, turkey breast, various roasts, tater tots & beer battered cod, whole stuffed trouts, and saurkraut & pork ribs. Used rotisserie for a rib roast twice and several chickens. Roasted every conceivable veggie, except Brussel sprouts, and make zucchini boats (stuffed zucchini) monthly. Kept meals warm, proofed dough and dried fruit. ALL WITH GREAT RESULTS!!! The footprint is rather small because the oven is tall. Yes, it might take a little time to figure out how to use the oven, but it's worth every second. If you want a really good little multiple use oven, this is a great choice at lower price. Read more
This unit seem seems to be the do all of toaster ovens. Air fry, rotisserie, bake.... I don't doubt the hype, but will surely update if disappointed. Read more
I actually got rid of the huge stove in my condo and purchased this a my primary cooking tool until I figure out how I want to remodel my kitchen. So far it works great and everything that I’ve made turned out well. Chicken tenders, French fries, falafels, veggie burgers, and more. I haven’t had it long, or used it a lot, but I look forward to researching it more and trying new things. I would recommend. Read more
I, we like it. It does take a little getting used to. Controls are different, touchy for some settings. Our old one was much simpler, but it died.... As I said, it's a learning process. Some things we'll probably never use, let alone figure out. But, it was very well priced. Packed well with all accessories present. Nice useable size. The one drawback, which others have mentioned is the very low volume of the beeps... To be specific, the end of cooking timer beeps. It quietly beeps 5 times and shuts down. Read more
I love this cooker it does everything and more than my oven can do Read more
First, the product (KIB) cooks very quickly and after you get use to the controls it allows for precise cooking temperatures and cook times. Also, while using caution, I haven't had any problems with the trays falling out when trying to retrieve my food (better than some other products). The KIB is also pretty well insulated compared to other products I've owned (front and sides), that said, it still gets very hot on the exterior bottom and in the back. The top is marked hot and has some vent holes but doesn't seem to get as hot as the back and bottom (not sure how much heat comes out of the holes). I use a silicon pad underneath it and behind it (and above it to protect my cupboards, although I may not need it with the vent I built- discussed next). I also built a directional vent that I attached with high temperature silicone as the vast majority of smoke and heat is forced out a back vent in the middle of the unit, so the easiest way to use this product is if you have an open counter space Infront and and behind it and with some space above it. Another problem is the amount of grease and residue it generates, and that there is not much clearance between the drip tray and the bottom heating elements which can cause some smoke from greasier meats. Overall, I like the oven, but you need the right kitchen layout or need to take proper precautions to avoid issues. You will also need to keep up with the maintenance after cooking greasy food.

What a great little oven! My husband has made a rotisserie whole chicken, wings, pizza, baked potatoes and more! He was bummed when our oven died but has found this to be a great addition to our cooking tools. The size is perfect for our needs! Read more
This air fryer toaster oven combo has been great to use. The extra-large capacity is perfect for family-size meals, and the different cooking modes make it very versatile. Everything from air frying to baking and roasting works well, and the accessories are useful. It heats evenly and feels well built overall. Read more
