Works well.
Size: Medium Capacity
Air fryer and toaster work very well (Thats all I tried so far.). About 2 medium potatoes sliced into wedges fit in tray. The top and bottom get very hot. Will burn if you touch them.

Testing it out
Size: Medium Capacity
ORIGINAL REVIEW, OCT 2025: So far this little oven is doing great. Right now it's 4 stars but has the potential to change as I use it more often, right now I've only used it a handful of times. Heats up quickly so there's no growing old while waiting for preheating, a definite plus. The air fry option is super quiet, way more quiet than any air fryer I've ever had. Downside is there is no way to adjust temp for this setting so you really have to keep an eye on the food to see when it's done. DO NOT USE PARCHMENT PAPER IN THIS OVEN! I made that mistake because I use it in my regular full size oven as well as my old air fryer, but it's not compatible with this oven! I almost started a fire! Good thing I didn't walk away from it. I like that there's a timer feature so it will shut off, very helpful in times you are in the middle of something else at the same time and this avoids your food getting burnt. There's also a stay on feature in case you prefer that. For the timer you have to make sure you pass the 10 minute mark and then set it to the time you want. The oven is smaller than I expected. I don't know yet if a pizza will actually fit, I'll update when I attempt it. I've only made English muffin pizzas and French bread pizzas so far. One thing I really like about this oven is that it tends to cook food evenly. I've had toaster ovens that cook more on one side than the other and more on top than the bottom and it's frustrating! The stuff I've made in this oven were nice and crispy both on top and the bottom and it's so nice to not have pizza that's burnt on top and mushy on the bottom! I'm glad finally a manufacturer figured this out. This toasts really nice too. Watch the time with this. My bread got toasted way faster than with my old one! Overall I'm happy with this. I'll update as necessary.
