Very pleased with this unit after 6 weeks of use. It does three racks of cookies perfectly, unlike my conventional oven that does best one sheet at a time on the center rack. A pan of chicken parts took 30 min. @ 325. It has plenty of room for Pizza stones and Pampered Chef stone ware sheets. Also, if you are disgusted with the "China Syndrom" that permeates most retail products, this is manufactured in Italy. The price was better in January, glad that I made a decision to buy it then.
MORE : after a year, this is a BEST purchase, bakes bread great, would buy it again!!

Bought this to replace an over range second oven, entire unit had to go.
First week did several old favorites including a banana cake, most even cooking cake I have done. Turned down temp 25 to 325 and kept time at 30m. Next time I will reduce time a little as well.

Pros: even cooking, glass doors, cool touch glass door, plenty of room, broiler, 110v, timer or infinite control, nice controls, well packaged.

Cons: hot top surface, exhaust straight out back, no interior light

Be sure to clean interior carefully before burn in procedure, we found styrofoam behind the metal surface covering the fan.

Would recommend, hopefully will not need to buy again.

I cannot say enough good things about this product. Originally purchased to augment my traditional single-oven unit, the Broil King has become my primary oven. True to convection oven form, it cooks evenly and quickly. And because I can "load it up" (unlike a regular oven), I complete tasks quicker than with my "big" oven. Try to bake 3 racks of cookies at the same time in a traditional oven...

Don't be fooled by the "half size" moniker. The cookie sheets are the same size as traditional sheets! It takes up a large footprint - much larger than the quarter-sized unit. I purchased a professional cart at comforthouse.com that is made specifically for the POV-35.

Buy this oven...you will love it!

the fan is so strong it makes everything that raises above the pan lean the way the fan is blowing..no control for fan speed...make muffins they all look like they have a nose on them
