Overview
A small apartment kitchen or office break room gets a compact toaster oven with knob controls for toasting, baking, broiling, bagels and holding food warm. A drop down door opens onto a rack set in one of two positions, and a slide out crumb tray catches debris.
Heating a smaller cavity for leftovers and frozen snacks saves warming up a full oven, and the bagel mode toasts the cut side while warming the crust. Temperature and time are set by dial, and convection is not among the listed functions.
Who it's for
Couples, singles and office kitchens reheating meals and toasting breakfast get a simple dial operated oven. Cooks who roast whole chickens or want air fried food need a larger, more capable unit.
Pros and cons
- Bagel mode toasts the cut side only
- Stay on setting for longer bakes
- Removable crumb tray for cleanup
- Bake pan and rack included
- No convection or air fry function
- Warranty length not listed
- Fits small pizzas only
- Painted exterior, not stainless
Performance notes
Results depend on rack position, since food set closer to the heating elements browns faster and the two positions set that distance. No convection fan is listed, so turning food partway through helps larger items brown evenly. The stay on setting matters for bakes that run past the timer.
