Overview
The Hamilton Beach 31156 pairs a 2-slice long-slot toaster on top with a separate toaster oven below, in a stainless steel body with a 60 minute timer and automatic shutoff. The oven side holds a 9 inch pizza or a 9 by 13 inch pan and covers bake, broil, toast and keep warm, while the toaster has 5 shade settings and a slot long enough for a full slice of deli rye.
The trade-offs owners flag are practical ones: the exterior runs hot during use, and the oven is sized for small to medium jobs rather than a full roast.
- 60 minute timer with automatic shutoff
- 5 toast shade settings on a long single slot
- 4 cooking modes: bake, broil, toast, keep warm
- Oven side fits a 9 inch pizza or 3/4 pound of fries
Who it's for
Fits kitchens that want one countertop unit handling both toast and small oven tasks instead of two separate appliances, including households where one person wants upright toast and another wants a flat oven. Not suited to anyone needing to roast a whole chicken or wanting a cool-to-the-touch exterior.
Pros and cons
- Replaces two countertop appliances in one footprint
- Long slot fits a full oversized slice of bread
- Automatic shutoff timer adds a safety backstop
- Simple enough for an elderly user to operate
- Exterior gets very hot to the touch during use
- Oven side isn't large enough for a whole roast chicken
- Toast can come out overdone right after the oven has been running
