Died after 3 months.
I have only had this toaster oven for about 3 months. During this time it worked great! The toast setting was nice, it seemed to make toast evenly and to an acceptable doneness without burning. The convection feature was nice, it cut cooking time on most things. The curved back was perfect for putting pizza in. However, the electronics just died on me. I had it set for 450 fahrenheit and after just a few minutes, the display went dark and it is no longer responsive. I have no doubt that it should be covered by warranty, but I bet that Miallegro will want me to pay for shipping to have it sent to their repair warehouse.
UPDATE:
Customer service was really easy to deal with and they provided a replacement toaster oven free of charge. I did not even have to pay the return shipping on the defective unit.
Great convection toaster oven
I have been using this oven for over a month now. I am very please with its performance as I have used almost all of its function. The only thing that I have yet to try is to dehydrate fruits. I had a toaster oven in the past that took a long time to toast, so I was pleasantly surprised that this unit toasted so quickly and well. The pizza that I have baked in this oven comes out great as well. I purchased this unit because I don't like to turn on the big oven to cook just for myself. I find that this oven works well, fast, keeps my kitchen cooler and saves energy.
I was concerned about the comment about the temperature setting being in Celcius, but I am glad I purchased the oven because the one I received comes with the correct Farenheit temperature setting. So, I called the customer service office and was told that all models are set for Farenheit temperature.
I hope you will enjoy your Miallegro toaster oven as much as I am enjoying mine.
flimsy and poorly thought out. don't be fooled by its sleek lines!
got this @ costco.com and was shocked to see the cheesy build. apart from the insubstantial fabrication, the most glaring deficits include the user having to manually press "off" when the cooking/toasting function ends, otherwise the machine stays "on" and the ringer keeps beeping until you press "off.". this is insane! it means that each and every time your toast is done, you must remember to press that idiotic " off" keypad. how hard would it have been to design an oven that turns off automatically?
however, the most serious flaw involves the fact that the inner side walls (where the tray rests during the cooking) have a 5 inch break in the mid section so that when you slide the tray out, the break causes the tray to fall forward and unless you are super diligent, you will be wearing your oven contents or cleaning the mess off your counter/floor. i certainly would suggest you look around for an oven whose designers/engineers have actually used the oven before...
