GOOD QUALITY & FEATURES FOR A GREAT PRICE! SOME TEMPS AREN'T ACCURATE THOUGH...
Rating by : Rashid Riggins,
I've had this little convection oven for about ten days now, and for the 49 dollar price point that I purchased it at, it was a steal. In terms of toasting, it does well as long as you follow the directions in the manual (for 2 slices) and place the toast in the middle of the rack and place the rack in the middle position. It doesn't take up a lot of space on your counter, while still being large enough to fit a 12 inch pizza or a 12 X 9 in. pan. I purchased it so I would be able to cook real dishes in it (ex. chicken/steak), and it is not exactly perfect temp wise, but it's close enough for me. I decided to test the temperature dial against my digital maverick thermometer and my basic oven thermometer. Both of my thermometers were in sync. Here are the results:
Convection/Bottom Rack
1. 450 = locks in at 475-478 degrees (I actually like that it's 25 degrees hotter here, a lot of toaster ovens don't reach their max temps (too hot can be regulated, not hot enough is an un-fixable issue).
2. 350 = locks in at 350-352 degrees
3. 250 = locks in at 248-250
Bake/Bottom Rack
1. 450 = 450 degrees quickly and holds for a while then drops down as low as 425! Ugh!
2. 350 = 323-325 degrees for about 15 min., then it locks in at 350 degrees!
3. 250 = 248-250
Broil/Bottom Rack
1. 450 = 448-450 degrees

TIP!!!!!!
IF YOU HAVE AN OVEN THIS SIZE AND YOU WANT TO FIND A BAKING PAN THAT MAXIMIZES THE 12 x 9 INCH SPACE, BUY THE DISPOSABLE ALUMINUM PANS (I BUY MINE FROM SAM'S CLUB, IT'S LIKE A PACK OF 20) THAT MEASURE 12 X 9 WITHOUT INCLUDING THE LIPS ON THE SIDES, 13 X 10 OR SO WITH THE LIP. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GRAB YOUR KITCHEN SHEARS, AND CUT OFF THE 2 LIPS ON THE SHORT SIDES (meaning the lips on the 12 inch length sides), AND IT FITS PERFECTLY. THE LIPS CUT OFF VERY EASILY WITH GOOD SHEARS. LEAVE THE LIPS ON THE LONG SIDES SO YOU CAN STILL GRAB YOUR PAN... YOU DON'T NEED TO CUT OFF THE LIPS ON THE WIDTH SIDES BC THIS OVEN HAS A PIZZA BUMP THAT MAKES IT A BIT LARGER THAN 9 INCHES IN WIDTH...

So if you are heating up things like frozen foods or toasting bread, this oven is perfect. If you like to make homemade pizza, or even store bought, this oven would be a great option for that as well, because on the convection setting at 450 degrees, this little oven gets REALLY HOT! And if you want a counter top convection oven to cook raw meats like chickens, steaks, and roasts on those hot summer days, then this oven will do that well too. I would recommend this to others.
Nicest Toaster Oven Yet
Rating by : Ol' FL Guy,
Arrived in 2 days with Prime. Packaging in perfect shape. Stainless steel and full glass door look great on my counter. Fit and finish was fine. Put in an oven thermometer and found all the marked temperatures to be spot-on. The convection setting really speeds up the cook time and browns and crisps nicely. Timer bell was loud enough to hear from the living-room. It's the nicest budget priced toaster we've had yet. Have no problem reading and setting dials and the raised indicator has a nice feel and contrast. People need to look to the front of the dial and forget about the black ring that has ridges to help turn the dial. You set with the front indicator - NOT the turning ridges! We're in our late 60's and do not find the need to paint the raised indicator at all!
Highly recommend.
Best toaster oven!
Rating by : Melissa,
This oven is great. It heats foods very quickly and thoroughly, and when using convection works even faster! I love how it looks and the fact that it has a bumpout in the back to accomodate a pizza that is not visible from looking at it (other than behind) is a great feature. You wouldn't know by looking at it that it would hold a 12" pizza! The crumb tray is easy to use and the knobs are easy to turn, allthough the bottom timer knob is a little tighter to turn. Nothing major though. it also doesn't give off too much heat, but does get hot to the touch of course cause it is an oven afterall. I would definatley recommend this toaster oven, it has cooked everything wonderfully so far, toasts breads great and cooks everything I've made pretty evenly and quickly. Very happy with my purchase!
