![]() I also don’t like that the analog knob, doesn’t have temperature marks below 250 degrees. I don’t like that there’s not a digital display to precisely set the temperature. It was hard to see into the oven at night with the lights that I have in our kitchen. Our microwave has a light that comes on when cooking, which is nice, so should this little oven. There’s no interior light to flip on to see things cooking, even though the oven is slightly larger than a microwave and about as shallow. It’s supposed to do that, but it doesn’t seem normal. It will smoke and crackle, but manual says it’s normal. What don’t I like about the Oster Convection Oven with Pizza Drawer? You have to run a cooking cycle for the first time before you actually get to use the thing to break it in sort of speak. I like the fold away front pizza drawer handle. It looks great with the stainless steel design. The size is decent, perfect for counter tops. The pizza oven cooks faster than our larger oven. What do I like about our Oster Convection Oven with Pizza Drawer? Our kids love the Pizza Drawer Oven because it reminds them of an “Easy Bake Oven.” It’s as fun for them to watch us use it as it was to actually use it. The cheese on top of the pizza from the conventional oven was overcooked, while the crust wasn’t crispy enough. The pizza in our conventional oven browned the pizza all over. The crust of the pizza, baked in the Pizza Oven, came out crispy and cheese melted just right for me with browned edges. I also baked a pizza at the same time in our conventional oven to compare the final pizza product. I baked cookies in both ovens to compare the outcome of the final product. The cookies were a bit fluffier and softer. I baked cookies in the oven which turned out better than our conventional oven. When the time is up, the oven dings when the food is done cooking. That would be good to slow roast something like meat. The timer has a range of 0-60 minutes, but there’s also a setting to “Stay On”. ![]() The third round knob is the timer, labeled “Time”. I baked our cookies with “Toast/Bake.” I broiled a simple 4-ounce salmon fillet. I baked our pizza in the pizza drawer, so have to have set for “Pizza” to do that. You have a choice of Pizza, Turbo bake, Toast/Bake, Warm, Broil or Off. The second round knob is for choosing what or how to cook your item, called “Function”. You have a range of 250-450 degrees, but the lower setting of the knob isn’t labeled with temperature ranges from 0-250, it just says “Warm,” so that part of it a guess. The top round knob, you set the temperature, labeled “Temp.” I wish there was a digital display so that when you turn the knob, you can be more precise with the temperature. It does a great job baking just about anything. I love the Oster Convection Oven with Pizza Drawer I love the Oster Stainless Steel Convection Oven with Pizza Drawer.
