What is the largest lasagna pan you can use inside of this oven? Can you you bake a cake in it? Can you broil a chicken? Thanks! :)

I have baked a cut up whole chicken; root veggies do great baked as well. Obviously a pan of brownies would be perfect--I've not broiled anything as yet but would say there's not much head room so what ever gets broiled would need to be pretty flat. It works great for toast of course. For more than one or two people I'd go with the larger breville. This size is great for me and my counter size--quite handsome!

The bottom of the baking pan is 9 1/2" X 9 1/2", so you could make a small lasagna. You could bake a small cake as well. Chicken parts would probably work better than a whole chicken. It is, after all, a toaster oven. Maybe you want to get the larger one?

10"x10.5" is the largest pan for lasagna. it actually is the size pan that comes with the product. And yes, you can bake a cake and roast a chicken in this. I'm very happy with it. RE: lasagna. the size pan is typically smaller than what you would make lasagna in, but if you did it in batches (I don't think, very practical) it would work.

It comes with a pan you can bake a small lasagna in. It is square. You could use a 9 x 9 square pan. The same capacity oblong pan is too long. You can fit a round cake pan. You can fit a pie dish. I bake pies in it and they turn out great. You can't put a chicken in. It's too large and will hit the top heating element. I broil salmon in it every week and toast with it every day.

I have not used my oven very much. We have yet to move into our cabin. I would not ordinarily bake a lasagna or cake in this oven. I prefer using my regular stove oven. I would try muffins and I do cook fish toaster ovens. We did try toasting four sliced of bread and English muffins and it did a good job. I think we will be happy with our purchase.

I just received my new Mini today and evidently things have changed since 2013. The enclosed pan is 10 in x 10 in, and lasagna is definitely possible in a toaster oven. Google "lazy lasagna Governale" and watch the video.

We haven't used ours to much as we just purchased it, and it is in our vacation home. I think your question might be answered by checking the specs on the info page. It does work very well, and looks great. It would not be suitable for broiling a whole chicken...maybe a half on it's side. I've never baked a cake in any oven! :)

I was told that I need to put this in a cold oven and then preheat the oven. I was told to never put this in a hot oven?I was told it would crack. I find that hard to believe because I know Emile Henry makes glazed pots that you can put in a preheated oven.If you have one of these, can you fix the pizza on this pan, then place the pan directly into a 400degrees oven? or hotter? Thank youSorry I posted this as a response - I meant to post as a new question ...

I just got mine. I have a 9 X 13 that I was hoping to be able to use, but the handles make it entirely too long. Do you know where I could find a 9X13 GLASS pan WITHOUT handles? I need this size for my cake, but I HATE to use the big stove oven.

This oven easily accommodates standard 12" round or square pizzas. the inside dimensions are 13" wide x 13" deep and with the rack in the lower of the two position levels, there is 7" height clearance to the bottom of the upper heat elements (and still a nice clearance above the lower heat elements). I bake bread quite a bit, but haven't in this oven, yet. None of the loaves I bake ever exceed 5 1/2" in height. I would say this oven would do fine, and when I do try it I will use the Convection Mode as I believe it will provide for very even baking. It does pizza, etc, fantastic! Someone said that they thought the fan was loud. I disagree. The bell that rings at the end of timed baking is adequately audible, as well. I hope this helps.

Absolutely :) I have baked Lasagna in it a couple of times (biggest pan I got) and it turned out great, I lined the lower rack with aluminum foil in case the cheese bubbles over, saved a messy clean up. For clean up, let pan cool off, fill with hot tap-water and let soak until water cools off. I used a rubber spatula to scrape bottom and sides, rest cleaned up easily with a sponge or dish cloth. It is not safe to use on stove top :).

Most definitely! This is my favorite oven I have ever had, this is my 5th one i believe. I was afraid it was too big when it arrived, but it's perfect.

Yes, you can. The tray that comes with the oven is slightly larger than 9 x 11 inches and the interior of the oven is pretty spacious. I've only had it for about 2 weeks and have used it several times already. I do find that I have to cook/bake things longer than in a normal oven. I like it a lot. Hope this helps!

No, the dimensions in the oven are just under 12"x11.5"... I really do like this oven... I think the chicken shown is a bit exaggerated... I use it for small stuff and it does this well.

Nancy, I did not get your question, but I have had this oven for over 3 years. I love it! It is the best oven I have ever had. The only thing I have found is when I clean it, the highest cleaning level is too much. I have to use the medium level of cleaning. Other than that this is the perfect oven. When I get a new stove, I will buy electrolux. I hope this helped you. Any other questions, please ask.

I returned mine because the timer does not work, it's stuck and it won't move at all so I bought another one - Sunpentown, super turbo oven, so2000. I bake cake in mine using metal pans. But it's easy to burn it so start with low temp setting and keep watching it until you get the hang of it. Hope this helps.

Yes! You can cook two small to medium size (depending on the diameter) pizzas. You can also cook two pans of cookies or two pans of roasted vegetables, or a whole chicken. This oven is twice the size of most convection ovens-we love it!

no .. i didnt buy the product .. it was too large for my oven .. i bought a SCANPAN large lasagne 'pan' instead, which is a truly excellent 'low-sided' [about 2"-2.5" high] roaster which can also be used on the stove top over eg gas burners, though it does cost a lot .. but it has been worth it

I'm curious about how large a casserole dish I could use in this. I don't bake that many 12" pizzas.

The largest pan I use in the oven is 10 1/2" by 12 3/4" and is shallow. This pan has a little wiggle room in both directions so you should be able to fit your pan. The depth can be handled by lowering the rack. I use a smaller pan that is 2 1/2" deep and it works okay.

I make lasagna in this pan all the time. I typically fit four noodles per layer and have room for three layers. Bake it at 375 for about 45 minutes to an hour (with uncooked noodles). Comes out great every time. And the pan is insanely easy to clean, which was a huge bonus because I have had some bad experiences with stuck on tomato sauce.

I agree, use the baking pan for chicken breast, otherwise you might have a mess to clean up. Love mine.
