We let this run almost all day 10am-8pm. Does a nice job for toasting sandwiches and light baking.

I absolutely love mine and I’ve had it for just over a year. I’ve been working in kitchens for the last 20 years. I chose this oven because I’ve used it in many restaurants and it always does a good job and is super affordable. I now use it at home doing about 50 sheet pans of baking each week and it always does a good job. My only complaint is the time doesn’t work, but it’s never worked on any commercial ovens I’ve used so i don’t really care.

Cooks two 12” pizzas in a pan to perfection , (no rotating halfway through) , nice and even ! Baked goods like muffin tops and cookies brown up a little more on the right rear side of the oven but doesn’t overcook just a little more crispy on the edges .The oven will be used approximately 4 hours a day , 3 days a week , if I get a year usage out of it I’ll be happy .

Works excellent to toast subs up rather than putting them on a griddle. Definitely recommend to buy this for your kitchen or deli.

For several months, I have been researching countertop convection ovens, and have seen how expensive they can be. I originally thought about purchasing This half size Avantco 120v, but hesitated based on reviews and my own opinion about wanting an oven with an interior light feature. I bit the bullet since I didn’t have 2k to cough up on my dream oven... I purchased the Avantco CO-16 half size countertop convection oven, and boy was this a great buy! The oven itself is bigger than I had anticipated, it is also very quiet. I am learning how to use my new oven since I have never owned a convection and it is indeed a learning curve. When you first plug it in, insure that is has its OWN dedicated outlet, this is important in preventing the unit from overheating. The unit comes oiled or greased from the manufacturer so it will slightly smoke in the back ventilation system, this must occur in order for the unit to complete its first time usage cycles, the more you use it the quicker the unit adjusts itself to the temperatures that you need for your baking. I tested my unit 5 times back to back for 5 days. I plugged it in, placed my oven thermometer inside, put the temperature to 350, I noticed the unit heating up gradually,I noticed the slight smoke, assured my unit was 12inches away from my walls, noticed the temperature light shutting off when the unit reached my desired temperature. By days 3,4, and 5. Zero smoke from the oiled fans, and the unit reached temperature in about 3-5 minutes! This oven is quiet and absolutely a bargain for the price. I am still learning how to use my convection oven since the degrees on my internal oven thermometer read differently than my oven temperature control knob, an exact 50 degrees difference. This is normal for convections, although depending on the brand this may differ. Overall, I am loving this oven, it is absolutely beautiful and a wonderful addition to our kitchen. This is your sign to get yours, if you are patient and willing to learn how to use your oven and understand that all ovens are not made the same, then go ahead, for the price you really can't beat it, it is a great oven and we love ours. ??

This little guy has been an absolute legend. We turn him on in the morning for pastries and then again for lunch time hot foods. Quick to heat up, never been a problem in the nine months we've been running. For the price, you really cant go wrong. And we work him pretty hard!. We do have to rotate trays mid way through baking to get the best result which is not that unusual for most ovens.

It's a great little oven. Will hold multiple half sheet baking pans. We use it to cook our oven baked potatoes.
