Stowable countertop cooking system

A cooking system comprising:

• a housing having a front wall, first and second sidewalls, a top wall, a bottom wall, and a rear wall connected together to form an internal heating compartment configured to receive food therein, and an opening formed in the front wall of the housing for accessing the internal heating compartment;
• a door hingedly coupled to the front wall and configured to rotate between an open position and a closed position about a hinge axis extending along a bottom edge of the opening to selectively provide access to the internal heating compartment, wherein the door defines a first portion of the front wall of the housing when the door is in the closed position;
• a user interface located adjacent to a lateral side of the door, wherein the user interface defines a second portion of the front wall of the housing;
• at least one first support foot extending from the rear wall of the housing;
• and
• at least one second support foot extending between the bottom wall and the rear wall of the housing, wherein the at least one second support foot includes an arcuate feature with a rounded contour which facilitates rotation of the housing by a user between an active position in which the bottom surface of the housing is arranged generally parallel to a support surface on which the cooking system is located, with the at least one first foot elevated from the support surface and the at least one second support foot resting on the support surface, and a stowed position in which the rear surface of the housing is arranged generally parallel to the support surface, with the at least one first support foot and the at least of second support foot resting on the support surface.
