New Oven?

We received this beast yesterday and baked our dinner (almond crusted salmon) in it last night. Unfortunately we are both sick so can't really say how the food turned out. It was cooked all the way, which I guess is what matters. It preheated quickly in convection mode. The fan is a little loud but quieter than a microwave.

We had, of course, measured the space where we plan to put it (several times) and we know it will fit but man it looks huge sitting on the kitchen counter. The cavity (? is that the correct term, that sounds bad) is as large as the current oven, if not larger. So thanksgiving turkey feasts should be no problem! Though our boat neighbors were cooking chicken breast in their microwave convection oven and seemed to be having a hell of a time producing a cooked product. I think there may be a bit of a learning curve with this new fangled technology. Interestingly, it came with a cookbook written 19 years ago. Guess we're just behind the times.
