Posting it to help any new owners and all those who are frustrated in the other reviews about the pre-heat and timer.
If you are having issues with the pre-heat and timer, make sure to press the "select" function after setting the time.
So choose mode, press select
Choose temp, press select
Choose time, then Select
And THEN press start.
I think a lot of people are selecting the time, and then pressing start (without select in between)
Anyway...need to press a lot of buttons just to activate very basic functions.
I am with the reviewers who long for the simplicity of the analog toaster ovens.
This is the best looking toaster oven at CT in my opinion. Over priced, and too many steps to setup basic operations.
Once past all the button pressing, seems to do a good job so far.
