Review 1 for Oster Designed For Life Extra-Large Convection Countertop Oven

I opted for a countertop model because I live alone and don't want to use my (large) conventional oven for cooking small items. I have used it for fixing toast to baking chicken breasts and roasting vegetables. I love it. I was afraid the exterior casing would get too hot, ie., throw off too much heat, but this doesn't happen. It is wide enough to accommodate a 13"x 9" in pan WITH handles. I haven't attempted baking cakes or pastries so cannot comment on this. It runs so quietly (especially on Toast setting) that at first I was afraid it wasn't working. My only complaint is that the user guide gave no info on converting recipes developed for conventional ovens. However, there is plenty of this information on-line. I am well pleased.

I have not had it long, but it does cook things quickly, and evenly as far as I have experienced.
I like not having to heat up my larger oven to just brown something, or do a frozen pizza etc.

This oven is perfect for cooking while keeping the house cool. The size is just smaller than a cookie sheet but it fits a 9x13 cake pan just fine. I absolutely love it!

I bought this as a 2nd oven to use when my main oven is being used for cooking a main meal. Around holiday time or family gatherings it's nice to have a 2nd oven to bake/cook on. It's real easy to use cleaning is nice and easy. Highly recommend if you do a lot of cooking/baking.

I like it but would change 2 things

This oven Is very spacious and allows you to cook several items at once due to the depth and size of the racks. It looks great and is a great value for the money. However nothing is perfect. There are no springs in the glass door to prevent it from.slamming on the counter so.I had to stick.2 rubber guards from the bottom.of furniture legs to each side of the door to prevent it from breaking everytime I open it. In addition since its digital but doesnt have a number pad to key in time or temperature you have to move it with the up and down arrows from.the preset ones. The timer is set to 30 mins and so far everything ive cooked in it has been 15-18mins. The temp in bake is set to 350 degrees and all the things ive cooked have been upwards of 400 degrees. The broil is set to 450 which is perfect. Along with the pizza button also set right. Over all I give it 4 stars .

Review 10 for Oster Designed For Life Extra-Large Convection Countertop Oven

fabulous toaster/oven with convection cooking

05/17/2013
By ,

5 out of 5
5 out of 5
after "reviewing" the many reviews on this toaster/oven, I decided to go for this one (I had previously considered smaller ones) especially since you can fit a full-size pizza in it.
I had never used convection cooking before, but love it! Another reviewer mentioned a conversion chart which I accessed on the internet and it's great ~ makes it so easy to convert the cooking times/temperatures to convection.
I also had concerns about no interior light in the oven ~~~ not a problem at all! The clear glass on the oven door makes it very easy to see into the oven and check on what you are cooking.
One reviewer mentioned that the oven door "falls down" on the counter when you open the oven. Well, there is a "stop spring" on the door when you partially open it (just like a regular oven) and the door, I found, doesn't just flop down on the counter.
I do agree that you should get an oven thermometer to get the true oven temperature when you are baking and not using the convection feature.
As mentioned in other reviews, the exterior of the oven does get hot, and you should not touch the top, sides, or door. However, on my full-sized regular oven, when I would run the oven, some of the burners on the top would also get warm. And of course, I would never touch the oven door ~~ just common sense.
Overall, I, a senior citizen, with arthritis in my hands, and shoulders (75 yrs) am totally thrilled with this oven. I don't have to lean over to get items into the oven, I am able to easily slide items out of the oven (with oven mitts on, of course). I am not dealing with a heavy, hot large oven door which always made me afraid of burning myself.
This oven is very quiet, and I am not heating up my kitchen when using it. The crumb tray for removing and cleaning the oven is wonderful ~~ vs. running my full-size oven cleaning feature for 3 (yes 3) hours ~ untold amounts of electricity running up my electric bill!!
All I can say is ~ buy one, you'll love it! VOODEBAH!

Review 11 for Oster Designed For Life Extra-Large Convection Countertop Oven

Very Nice Countertop Oven

I bought this Convection Countertop Oven to replace my stove/oven that stopped working. I can still use my stove top to cook with, but to have the oven repaired would have cost over $200 and to buy a new one would have cost at least $500. So, I chose to buy this countertop oven. Since I don't use the oven everyday, I can move this about to store when not in use. It is large and takes up a lot of space, but with the weight being under 30 pounds, that is not a problem for me. It does have the two shelves and I have used two round 9 inch bakeware and they fit with plenty of room. I have only used this to cook biscuits and cornbread and to reheat things, like chicken, and also to toast bread. So far, very pleased with the results. It beeps when it is finished cooking. Does not have an interior light, but that is okay. The oven does get hot on top because there are vents on the top right and on both sides, but that is to be expected. I am very happy with my purchase and thankful that it cooks very well so that I didn't have to go out and buy an expensive stove/oven. And, I ordered this online and it was shipped quickly and arrived safely to my door. I love shopping online at WalMart.

I bought this item because its only hubby and I at home and I did not want to always heat up big stove oven. We were at my son and daughter in laws one weekend and she has one and that was all it took. I love this oven. It is big enough to place a 9x13 pan in and since I make a lot of sheet cakes that size this is perfect. Very happy with item, now I also save by not heating up large oven,especially now that summer has come. Well worth the price.

I really enjoy the convection on this oven. I read in a review that it will hold a family size pizza from Papa Murphys. It actually holds a large size, not the family size. So far I am really pleased with it. I notice that you have to keep pushing the buttons a few times, and then it works. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase.

Purchased the Oster Designed for Life Extra Large Convection Countertop oven for our office kitchenette to replace the old toaster oven that finally bit the dust. The new unit is used several times a days and works perfectly. I highly recommend the oven. Everyone is very satisfied with the ease of use and functionality.

I'm not a fan of the appearance of stainless steel and purchased this one for its size. I've only used it twice so far. I agree with other reviews that Oster needs using instructions for temp. and time. I looked up conversion on internet. It recommends 25 degrees lower and one third less cooking time than used for conventional oven. The request for a review comes way too soon. I would have liked to have used it more first to give a better opinion.

This oven is perfect... It saves time in not having to fire up the big gas oven on the stove when cooking for just the two of us, but it fills in as a much needed second oven when cooking for a large group of dinner guests. I bake a lot of bread from scratch....it bakes the loaves and buns beautifully and browns them to perfection. It saves time because there is no waiting for it to pre-heat and it cools down quickly which will be a real plus during the summer months.
My only complaints are, I wish, the controls were dials instead of push button; they have to be pressed 'dead center'. Plus, the exterior of the oven gets fairly warm and the oven door is too hot to touch when the oven is in use. Other than that, I'd recommend this oven to anybody. It is nice to be able to warm the plates by just setting them on top of the oven #not on the vents, though#.

This was a gift from my gf and i was excited to try it, the convection function is great, I have made chicken drums and chicken thighs with the convection at 350 and it seems to be perfect every time, the skin turns out golden brown and this chicken just melts in your mouth everything seems to cook very fast so keep your eye on your food,not to many people even know what a convection oven is, this oven heats up to temperature while a fan circulates the air even through the food making everything cook perfect.
