REVIEW OF NEW OSTER OVEN

doglover3 — Tue, 28 Mar 2017 07:42:34 GMT

I got this in black. So far I made lasagna and a pie. I did heat pizza and a leftover casserole.

I am happy with how every thing turned out. I like the light in it plus the size, great size. When I made the lasagna I put garlic rolls in to heat the last 20 minutes, plenty of room.

Oh, almost forgot, I also picked up a rotisserie chicken at the grocery store and reheated it at dinner time. My last counter top oven wouldn't hold a rotisserie chicken, wasn't

high enough but this one seems great so far, glad I got it. It holds a lot more than my last one I paid more for.

Is this oven quiet when in convection mode? My current one is really noisy and hubby hates it.

Also, has anybody checked the temperature consistency? I know that was often mentioned as an issue with the previous model (the French door with the knobs).

no, didn't check the temp but things get done when they are suppose to. I don't notice any noise in the convection mode but then I am in another room usually watching TV or on the computer when I am making something but didn't notice any noise but maybe someone else can be more helpful with that part. I do know I love mine.

Mine is a low hum. Convection cooking is about a fan that blows around the food, unlike, baking that cooks stuff from the top and bottom.

convection blows hot air around the whole object. Therefore, the fan, like all fans, are gonna hum.

Believe it was TX Blond and I that both tested our ovens with a oven thermometer I set the oven for 400` and checked on it every few minutes when it reached 400 it remained.

My other walmart Oster would always climb another 25 degrees I had to set it down to 375 sometimes. It didn't have the light and the color and the fancy French doors. LOL

My advice is to do what we did and test it. Each unit may be calibrated different. If you find it's off then pull it back in 25 degree inclements.

Time & practice will guide you.

I tested my oven at 350 degrees with an oven thermometer, and it was right on the money!

Loving my oven also.

@SharkE - your red one is very pretty.

Yeah, I know there's going to be some noise, but I'm hoping for something that isn't any louder than, say, the microwave. I have an old Bravetti convection oven and it's noisy as heck. Hubby hates that about it.

As far as temp goes, I was just asking because that seemed to be a consistent complaint about the previous model.

Guess this one is new and improved LOL

Hey, that's a good thing. It seems rare that any company actually fixes a problem instead of just coming out with a "new and improved" model that has the same problems as before. Singer sewing machines should take note.

I listened this last time and really don't notice much of any noise but than as I said, I am not in the same room with it while it is on. I love it, works great, temp is great, no complaints about it at all, love it.
