Excellent oven!
This is my 3rd different mini oven in 7 years, and by far the best and most efficient. The temperature control actually seems accurate and unlike my last one, you don’t just have to cook everything flat out as it leaked so much heat.This operates and cooks like a full size oven, albeit much smaller. The internal fan is probably partially responsible for this. Love the oven light too. Only one slight niggle, the timer control is only marked 30-60-90-120 minutes and is difficult to judge the sometimes unusual timing of ready meals. I would have preferred more granular markings. However, I am getting used to this.All in all a very well built oven, and I expect it to last much longer than the others. I think, being such a prestigious brand, that spares will be more available if required. Something which has proved impossible with its predecessors.I’m very happy with my purchase.

A stylish, well-made and efficient addition to your kitchen
I have had this for six months or so now. I wanted something quicker and more convenient than my full-size oven which takes a long time to heat up. I have previously had cheap compact ovens but these had all-or-nothing temperature settings and weren't even as big as this is. This, however, is big enough for one person, heats up in a jiffy, cooks evenly and looks good into the bargain - the timeless Dualit style looks good in any kitchen. On the expensive side but I can't fault the quality; the whole thing has a solid, well-built feel to it and should last years. The markings on the dials aren't very big and there are no minute or even five-minute gradations on the timer. Recommended.

Excellent oven, shame about the utensils!
The oven itself is quite frankly awesome, it looks quality and feels quality, because it is quality!Sure you can buy something similar for a lot less money and, to be honest, it would probably do the job every bit as well, but would it last?Ours is on display in our kitchen, it in not simply functional but enhances the look of our kitchen when placed amongst our other stainless steel appliances.My one complaint would be the accessories, they are non stick coated, alas the coating is quite thin and whilst initially aesthetically pleasing they are functionally practically useless the coating wearing off after only a couple of wipes with a green pad!It comes with only one shelf, however due to the shortage of internal height this is probably just as well. We are a couple living on our own with no kids and a wonky main oven which takes nearly 40 minutes to pre heat, which for a couple of pies costs more than the product.I have worked out that this oven will pay for itself in 13 months, as the thing is guaranteed for twelve I thought it worth the punt - did I mention it looks super cool in our kitchen?

Glad I bought it
I was unable to make cheese on toast because the grill on my main cooker packed up and that is why I bought this. So as soon as I unpacked it I gave it a quick clean and oh yeah I had a cheese on toast frenzy. I've also cooked pizza,oven chips, fish, pies and roasties and it has been excellent. I use it more than I expected to and it's good as a second oven. This is so handy because now I can make meals that require different temperatures at the same time, which makes the Sunday roast much simpler to do. I was a bit concerned about it's power consumption but when set to max temperature and the fan running it uses about the same amount of power as my kettle. Most things don't require that much power so it's not too expensive to run. I found it easy to operate and the controls are clear. It is as easy to clean as they claim so happy with that too. The accessories and the build quality feel good so it's definitely a thumbs up from me

OK for roasting, poor for grilling
This is the second unit I've used. The first one lasted about 5 years with regular use and was satisfactory in every way. In view of this I replaced it with another. Sadly, the new unit is not as good as the old one in one major respect for me: the grill never gets hot enough to grill rare steaks which need the outside well done before the interior cooks. The grill element of the first unit glowed noticeably red, whereas the present unit I can see it just glowing.The oven gets hot for roasting, but the temperature gauge is not accurate for roasting. Temperature regulation is very poor, so much so that I was driven to testing it with an oven thermometer. In fact, I used two different makes to iron out inconsistencies with the readings. The results were as follows: (first figure oven setting)100C = 160120C = 175140C = 180160C = 190180C = 210205C = 220230C = 235Figures not shown on the temperature setting are guesstimated.You will see that the largest discrepancies are at the lower end of the scale nad having a practical lower limit of 160C is really not acceptable.I'm now of the opinion that this item is design flare over practicality and as such is overpriced for what it offers (or does not).

A brilliant substitute for smaller needs!
Brilliant - I've been using mine since september '17 - one of the best things I've bought for the kitchen!My main oven takes an age to reach temperature and normally takes more time than any stated time to cook something.The acid test for this dualit oven was a humble frozen pie - if the oven didn't do as it was meant to, it was goig back.Oven preheated as instructed at the required temperature (it took about 4 minutes), pie in for 30 minutes. I could tell by the colour and smell that it was cooked spot on - no skewering to check the centre was hot - jod done :-)Yes the controls seem a bit basic, but this is good, simple, reliable british design. It doesn't take much to get used to the relatively uncalibrated thermostat and timer. The oven size isn't huge but it will fit a medium chicken and cook it perfectly.
