Great looking oven but.

Everything was packed well, no damage. Adding to my existing ChefIQ app was easy. Have not used it yet as everything is being cleaned first. HOWEVER my first complaint is that it does not have an Atlantic time zone (AST) which is the region where i live. There is no way to trick it and no way that I can find to manually set the time to override it either . So the clock will always be wrong!?! For such an expensive oven one would think that you would at least include all the time zones for the countries that it is sold in, or a manual setting.

I bought it because

I bought my sister one in March for her birthday, she’s used it almost everyday since for home meals. She loved it so much I had to finally buy one for myself. Used it tonight for chicken tenders and checkers fries was awesome.

Much better than my previous oven

The Chefiq Mini-Oven was a Christmas gift to myself. My OMNI Oven had seen many years of use. I had used my ChefiQ Temperature probes for several years and when I saw the Min-Oven available, with software that could be used with my Temperature Probes and Smartphone, I knew what I needed to purchase. The price was too much for my retiree budget. Eventually the price was lowered to what I could afford. There's no "manual" for how to use the smartphone software, but the Support Team has been excellent via email to address my "problems" with using the oven.

Solid, Reliable, and Constantly Used!

I’ve put this little oven to work pretty much every day since I got it, and it hasn’t let me down once. It heats fast, cooks evenly, and doesn’t make a big production out of anything. I’ve used it for quick breakfasts, reheating leftovers, roasting veggies, and plenty of “I’m not firing up the big oven for this” meals. It handles all of it without fuss. The size is perfect, the controls make sense, and the results are consistent. It’s become the appliance I reach for first because it just works and saves me time. If you want something dependable that actually earns its spot on the counter, this is it!

Unprecedented!

The CHEF iQ mini oven is an absolute versatile tool to use in the kitchen for any truck regardless of your level of experience. as an experienced Cook with semi formal training, this is a must have in the kitchen. You have a tremendous versatility and utilization of many different cooking techniques and it’s smart technology. It tells you when your food is done if you add your CHEF iQ cooking probes you’ve got a fail safe system based on heating temperatures of Meats versus time. Perfect meals every time. ***** start rating!

Multi purpose oven does it all

We bought this to replace a tired Breville and we're so happy with our decision. Not only is the oven fast heating and accurate temperature settings it looks great doing it. Features like high broil, airfry and proofing makes our big oven almost obsolete. The handy app provides everything for cooking new recipes to toast.

It's slick

I love this Chef IQ oven and I think you will too. I haven't bought the dedicated thermometer that goes with it for cooking meat. I have primarily used it for many kinds of toast and for cooking stew on the slow cooker setting. I look forward to other uses. I have an air fryer that I love so I don't know that I'll use it for that but as a very versatile oven with convenient presets, I think it's fabulous.

Newbie unboxing

Unboxing was a breeze. The only problem(?) was where some of the accessories packed. When the person who was helping me went to lift the oven out of the box the acessory popped out and he thought he had done something wrong. That was a small hiccup; otherwise everything went swimmingly.

Unboxing With One Glitch

Unboxing the mini oven and pairing it with Bluetooth was easy. Activating the warranty was impossible. The warranty activation requires a model number, but it will not let you enter your model number. Instead, it inserts a number that doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the appliance.

Works well but pulls a lot of power

The air fry and toast functions work really well. I love the baking trays also. But this unit pulls so much power to operate that it makes the lights in my refrigerator flicker, as well as the ceiling fan lights. It’s almost too powerful. No other air fryer ever did that. Also, the app seems kind of useless if you don’t buy the (sold separately) thermometers.
