I thought this was going to suit me. I wanted the ability to change side opening (which is normal), but had been sold that it was suitable for disabled people. It has touch control and knob control (probably not really the correct term). My OT approved but really not sure at this point. Perhaps I am not used to it at this point (only had for two weeks), so maybe I am not yet experienced enough to judge. Seems slow to heat (even on fan forced). Very quiet. Just loving having an oven after six months without one.
