Product Description
The Smart Oven's Element IQ puts the power where it's needed most. For each of the 9 pre-set programs, Element IQ delivers the right power at the right time and when adjusted to taste, it even remembers. Element IQ works much like the dimmer in your light switch-it can turn the power up or down. Instead of the 5 heating elements having a fixed wattage, Element IQ automatically puts the power where it is needed most for the specific cooking task. Not only does the Smart Oven heat up faster than a conventional wall oven, it's also more energy efficient than its predecessor, making it a kitchen tool you will use every day.Similar Products

Bought this when I moved into an apartment so that I could toast breads in the morning and avoid turning on the oven (in usually HOT east Texas) in the evenings. Overall, this product is delivering what I wanted. Satisfies a wide range of heating requirements (I even smear Sweet Baby Rays on baby backs and "BBQ" them in the this).
Two observations after using this for 4 months. The toasting element is inconsistant across the interior surface by at least 1 setting. If you put 3 pieces of toast\bagels across the interior rack, the center section of the unit will toast the bagel\bread to a crispy brown while 80% of the surface of the toast on each side will be warm\hot but at least a setting behind in browning. Second observation. The unit is larger than most toaster ovens and multiple task ovens that I have had in the past -- so it seems to eat up counter space. After 20 years in my home with lots of counter space, this is just a little larger than I would like in this apartment, and it basically consumes all the horizontal contertop between the frig and oven.
But I love the design and looks of the unit, and the crumb\drippings tray on the bottom it top drawer when it comes to easy cleaning\use, and with 450% baking plus a higher setting for broil it satisfies all of my baking needs. Plus that additional size I wish wasn't there means it can fully handles a 13' Papa Murphy's pie with no scrunching. And a full rack (sliced in half) of baby backs.

This is an awesome oven. I use it for all my oven needs. It is really nice to use it in the summer. The oven heats quickly and cools off quickly keeping my kitchen much cooler than my regular oven.

In the short time I have had this oven it has been used for roasting Cornish Hens, baking cheesecake, toasting bread,bagels,baking rolls, corn muffins, etc, and baking cookies. Everything has turned out beautifully. It is also easy to clean. I bought it to avoid using my large more commercial type of oven but wanted something more upscale than most toaster ovens and it fits the bill. It is the best toaster oven (has convection, too) I have ever used.

Have had this for almost two months now and love it. Could not find anything similar in my local stores for the price. Well constructed and easy to use. Nice not to have to use my large oven for small meals.

My rickety little cheap toaster oven died recently and I decided to get something smart, solid, attractive, and easy to use. I read the reviews by other amazon customers and also noted it was rated number one by Consumer Reports. I was not disappointed. In fact, I'm thrilled! This oven is like a professional piece of equipment. The designers have thought of everything to make cooking automatic and fool proof. Hit the pizza button and it makes beautiful pizza. Give it a quick wipe and it's clean. And it's so roomy inside that a 5-pound chicken would fit in easily. After I've used it a while I might find some shortcomings, but for now it's exactly what I need to completely ignore my big regular oven. Good riddance!
