This oven bakes well although the temperature for bakes has to be reduced by 25 degrees and the top of the bake will start to burn unless I rotate the pan half way through the bake cycle. It's so much better than my RV oven which goes from one heat extreme to the other and takes forever to produce decent muffins or quick bread.
This compact oven comes with two racks and I purchased two small baking sheets in order to bake small batches of cookies. Once again I lowered the temperature 25 degrees less and rotated the pans half way through the baking process and ended up with nice little cookies!
Aside from pleasing me with the baking, the overall size, weight and outside finish is just perfect. Saw this model in person so knew the outside had a nice finish and that the overall quality of the unit and inside were very good for the cost then ordered it from Amazon which had the best price.
The broil feature works well. I don't use the timer because from what I read in the instructions, when the timer goes off so does the oven and sometimes things need a longer bake after being tested for doneness.
Bottom line: this is well made, easy and lightweight enough to move and bakes so much better than the propane gas stove in my RV!
Update 06/29/2018. I contacted Kitchen Aid and they replaced it immediately. Hope this one is okay because I really do love this oven.

cooks food fast and perfectly done
solo hay dos cosas que no me agradaron:
-En Costco estaba en 2500
- Tengo menos de mes y medio con el y sin darle mucho uso pues vivo solo y se le comienza a notar unas manchas cafés en algunas partes como si fuese una especie de oxido
Having worked in a professional kitchen for years I have a tendency to leave ovens on at 450, always. This little beauty compensates for my ignorance and turns itself off without having to set the 1-hour timer.
Will try to keep an eye on it next time to see if the auto-off is based on a 1-hour time period or longer.
Easy to keep clean, great heat dispersement, fast pre-heat time (5ish mins to 450) and has an indicator light when machine is warm. No bs settings.
Los probamos y al parecer funcionan bien, aún no he horneado y no se si afecte la puerta mal cerrada.
