I was searching for an oven that would give me more space when my "big" oven was full, or to make smaller portions in. This oven does a great job.

I have baked chicken, potatoes, pizzas(homemade and frozen), muffins, cookie bars, pot pies, melted cheese on bread, quick breads, and whole wheat bread. This thing is great. You can actually cook on two tiers, and both get done--unlike one oven I tried that cooked the top level, and left the bottom one undone.

It has plenty of room inside to fit 2 standard size loaf pans, and a 9x13 will barely squeak in. Pans that come with it are very nice, and I use them all the time. My husband cut two old 12 cup muffin tins down to 9 cups, and they fit perfectly.

I use this as much as I can--and if you had a small family--it may be all the oven you would ever need. We have 6 children, so I can't use it for everything, but I'm constantly amazed at what I can fit in.

I bought mine reconditioned from Overstock.com, and haven't had any problems with it. Just make sure to check your prices. I've seen this oven as low as $160 and as high as $299.

I think that you'll be very pleased with the performance of this product.

This oven is NOT easy to clean! I have the AD 1079 Model which is TOP of the line. They say the interior is Dura-stone... what they DON'T tell you that's ONLY the sides and the pans. The top of the interior is RAW METAL... impossible to clean! The metal absorbs all splatters and turns them black so you look like you have a peppered oven. One use of the rotisserie and the interior is shot. You can NOT use scouring pads or oven cleaners. The oven functions fine so far but with the grease build up on the top I can only assume it's performance will deteriorate. I would never purchase a Delonghi product again. I called them and they said "well, we didn't specifically say the top was Dura-stone!".For the price I feel "ripped off"! And the exterior is NOT "cool touch". It produces more heat than my oven does. I am VERY disappointed. Look at the other less expensive brands. You will get NO satisfaction from Delonghi.

My oven arrived well packed and in great condition. I don't understand the negative feedback of others. It was a snap to figure out and the chicken came out fabulous.

I got this for $115 delivered ( $140 sales price minus $25 off for daily special with free shipping ).

The oven is well made and it cooks great. Made in Italy. Nice design.

If you want a great tabletop oven this is it.

This oven does cook well but mine has a serious flaw. If you are cooking on the middle shelf and pull it out to check or remove, the tray will fall to the side and spill the pan contents and possibly burn the cook in the process. The interior of the unit is wider than the tray when it is pulled out. With the tray completely recessed it does stay in the track. just don't pull it out! This is hazardous and a significant flaw in the ergonomic design.
