Well, I was sceptical about buying this oven given the low price. But bought it based on the large number of positive reviews. Firstly, it does seem pretty well built, the digital display is clear and easy to use, the knobs work smoothly, the door handle is solid, the door closes tightly and it comes with 2 shelves, unlike most ovens in this price bracket. However, the first thing I couldn't fail to notice was the extremely loud cooling fan, which runs while the oven is on, and then for half an hour afterwards. Luckily I have a separate kitchen so can close the door, but this would not be a suitable oven for an open-plan property or kitchen/diner The second issue I'm finding is that it seems to take longer to cook anything than my old oven, though things are cooking more evenly. Overall, I wish I'd spent a bit more and got something more powerful and with a quieter fan. But if you just want a cheap & cheerful oven, this does do the job!
