Wiring instructions and some other comments

The wiring is the only difficult part for most I think. I had to read other reviews and instructions carefully to confirm it. The "white" neutral wire from your wall is not used. The product's wiring has what appears to be a white wire, but is actually more of a gray wire, and your first instinct is to connect your house's white neutral and gray wire together, but don't do it. (Black-Black, Red-Gray, Green-Green-Ground or your switch keeps tripping) This product has been working great since I installed it. I'm not an electrician but I followed all the safety rules and it was easy. Instant heating, child lock is a nice feature and the touch buttons are easy. There's also a timed shut-off feature if you go away for a while and forget you've got the oven on (the shut-off time depends on the temperature setting), as well as an auto-sync feature that you can turn off. I think the timer will work well if you're cooking eggs and want to do something else or need to be away for a while.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • there are problems
