Rating: - Nice but ...
I received my oven and after a few days I noticed that the top heating element would not stay in place, and that it would drop down towards the food being cooked. The oven is a nice looking appliance, quite big on the counter. It also does not have a toaster setting so you have to use broil and then flip the toast, etc over. [...]

Rating: - Great product, very happy
Have had this for several weeks. Almost stopped using my stove. Being a bachelor, somewhere I forgot how much better food tastes broiled or on the spit. Have done whole chickens a couple of times, really moist and tender. This is easy to use, and it is a good looking unit. Cooking times are consistent. No problems so far. I have not found the fan to be noisy, perhaps that individual just has a bad unit. My folks sent me some of those big elastic bands to use when you are using the spit. Those work well too.

Rating: - Much more than a toaster oven!
We've been using the Delonghi Retro for a few weeks now, and it works great! So far have only used it for cake baking with the air-bake feature, and they come out perfectly! We had another Delonghi toaster oven for maybe 15 years, and it was still working except that it was getting a little rusty looking inside. The new Retro oven is a large unit, which you should be aware of if you have limited counter space. The instructions suggest that you keep a space of about 4 inches between it and other things on your countertop because it does get hot on the outside.
I recommend the Delonghi very highly based on long term use of their products. Also, the Italian design is gorgeous.
