Black & Decker Toast-R-Oven

When our GE 2 Slice Bagel Toaster stopped toasting on one side and now became useless to me, my husband came home with a Black & Decker Toast-R-Oven. I wasn't all that thrilled as I like to be a minimalist as far as appliances sitting out on my counter and unlike the small toaster, this wasn't an appliance that could be put away daily.

Despite the space the Black & Decker Toast-R-Oven takes up on my counter, I have come to appreciate some advantages of housing this toaster oven on my counter.

-I can heat a variety of breads on both sides. It works well for small crustinis or thick sandwich breads that are nightmares in a traditional pop up toaster.

-For some reason, maybe because it is eye level and has the added advantage fo making the ticking sound, I seem less likely to forget about and burn bread.

-It has a 9 inch pizza capacity which I haven't tested because a 9 inch pizza at my house would be a snack but it does work very well for heating up left...

RoobyBegonia says "Most versatile and often-used appliance in my kitchen" about Cuisinart TOB-195 Toaster Oven

RoobyBegonia — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 02:48:13 GMT

My grandmother turned me on to toaster ovens years ago - she and my grandfather trekked all over the country in a camper and then a small trailer after Grampa retired. She was a marvelous cook, and relied on her toaster oven for most of her baking and cooking on the road.

Toaster ovens have come a long way since then! I've had three over the years, and this is the best one I've had so far. Seriously, not a day goes by that we don't use it for SOMETHING. Of course there is the morning English muffin, but this appliance does SO much more.

Interior size: with a roomy 12" x 12" interior, you can even heat frozen pizzas in it. My favorite 9" x 9" Le Creuset baking dish (also reviewed) fits perfectly and I can bake cornbread, chicken breasts, and fish portions without heating up the whole kitchen. Want a quick tray of nachos? Your oven-proof dinner plates will fit right in.

Crumb tray: NEVER, and I mean it, never buy a toaster oven without a removable crumb tray. This...

pm0722 says "Europro T0289 is a good toaster oven, but not high class." about Euro-Pro T0289

pm0722 — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 02:27:07 GMT

This toaster oven is a good oven but far from the best. There is nothing digital, only 3 knobs. The setting are abundant but the knob does not align correctly so it is hard to tell what setting it is on. For the most part food cooks evenly, but when cooking things like biscuits, the bottom tends to cook too quick so you have to put the rack on the highest level to avoid burning the bottom. The back is a semi circle so you can cook a 12 inch pizza and there is added depth that you would not imagine by looking at it. It comes with to racks and one pan, but the pan sticks up in the middle which causes things to slide down to the outside....

cassiepoints says "I love the Toastation!" about Hamilton Beach Toaster - Toastation

cassiepoints — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 18:10:49 GMT

I love having the Hamilton Beach Toastation. It fits great on my small apartment kitchen counter. It comes in several colors to match your other appliances which is great. It is fast at toasting and cooking. I have made several meals and side dishes to meals with this handy machine. The Hamilton Beach Toastation makes great hot dogs; up to seven Ball Park Franks to be exact. You can put a piece of buttered bread in the toastation with cheese and garlic on top and make fast and delicious homemade garlic bread. The Hamilton Beach Toastation is safe and easy for kids to use. My brother uses it to make his pizza rolls for a snack after school. If your into the Panini craze the Hamilton Beach Toastation is a great tool for you. Simply make you sandwich and put both slices of bread (with meat and cheese on top) onto the rack and turn the oven on to 400, your sandwich will be done in 2 minute's. Enjoy!

hamster says "The best Toaster Oven I've Ever Owned!" about DeLonghi DeLonghi DO1279 6-Slice Toaster Oven

DeLonghi DO1274 6-Slice Toaster Oven

The Best Toaster Oven I'm ever owned - by far!!!

I have gone through 3 or 4 toaster ovens over the years and this is the ONE. My roomate loves it too, which is all that really matters.

The fan bake is the best, food gets done quick and the food is actually properly browned and crispy. I love the light inside the unit and the digital readout ensures the temp. is correct and the timer keeps me from over cooking the food (or forgetting about it - Ha!).

Something that is neat about this unit is that it has a quick function guide that pulls out from the bottom so you don't have to keep the user guide around in case you want to figure out what the pizza settings means, etc.

My only complaint is that the display doesn't seem centered (the top and side has a white border, the bottom and right side doesn't). In addition it is pretty bright. A good night light I guess.

I would recommend this unit to any and everyone, especially for people who like their...

pattibeto says "Best 19.99 I've spent in while" about Cooks Essentials QVC Cooks Pink Toaster Oven 9" (Jcpennys)

pattibeto — Wed, 27 May 2009 06:21:44 GMT

I am a college student so when I buy any kind of appliance I look for 3 things: Low cost, long-lasting, and useful. This adorable little pink toaster oven is all those things and much much more. I found this toaster oven before I started college in the summer of 2007. I saw it on the JCpennys website for 19.99. I debated between this and a hello kitty toaster I found on amazon. Two years later, I couldn't be happier that I bought this. Not only has this lasted the past two years, but it is conveniently compact AND available in many cute colors. This is the perfect size for my lifestyle and it is a very sturdy product. I can do things from toast my bagels to bake cookies with this thing. (Though unless you have a small pan I don't really recommend baking with it. Honestly this little toaster oven is cute, affordable, and amazing quality. I love everything about it and hope that it lasts at least another two years.

jwl10965 says "really like this appliance" about Hamilton Beach convection oven & toaster

jwl10965 — Tue, 19 May 2009 04:41:44 GMT

I bought this Hamilton Beach convection toaster oven because my range oven broke down and it's so old I didn't want to pay the expense of a repairman coming in the door with a $80 bill before he even looked at it. And at m y age I didn't see the sense in purchasing a new range. so I bought this convection oven & I love it. It peforms wonderfully and I use it year round. Only setback is baking Christmas cookies. i DO A LOT OF THEM & IT DOES TAKE LONGER. bAKING IN THE SUMMER Iwith this oven keeps the kitchen so much cooler than my old range. Also it was on clearence at our local SAMS CLUB for only $35.00. What a BARGAIN!!

iluvmonk says "love the convection and rotisserie, less love for toaster" about Euro-Pro convection oven & toaster

iluvmonk — Tue, 12 May 2009 21:49:12 GMT

review for euro-pro rotisserie convection oven. model TO241R, 1500 watt

bought at walmart april 2009 for $59.

overall, i am very happy that i chose this toaster oven. the convection works very well for even cooking and speed. the design is easy to keep clean since you can reach every corner. the controls are simple and user friendly. and i have a newfound love for rotisserie cooking since i have now experimented with a pork loin and a chicken.

the only annoying thing i have found, and it is a really very minor annoyance, is the toasting control is too imprecise. most of the time it doesn't "ding" when finished, and you can't really know if you are going to get pale or over-tanned bagels unless you keep an eye on it.

however, my history with toaster ovens are that they never live very long in my house no matter how cheap and simple or fancy and expensive. so i will not spend a whole lot on them anymore, and i have found this one to be a very good buy so far. that is if...

JMiller09 says "Awesome" about Black & Decker Toaster Oven

JMiller09 — Fri, 08 May 2009 17:31:01 GMT

Just don't feel like dealing with the oven? Is the oven taking too long to heat up?

A toaster oven is all you need!

A toaster oven is amazing for meals where you just don't feel like dealing with the oven. The conventional oven takes forever, but the toaster oven is quick! It's great for meals for one, two, three or the entire family. Plus, it's eco friendly! It uses less energy then the traditional oven and given that it's less space to heat up, and therefore less time, it's saves you money! Who doesn't want to do that?

Not only that, but it's better than using the microwave. The heat from the microwave deprives us of useful nutrients in our food! Which no one wants to lose! Plus we can use foil in the toaster oven!

I love my toaster oven and I have even taught my husband to use it. It's less intimidating for the men in our lives!

Best purchase ever! Well acutally it was a wedding gift! But still....

PURECOMEDIAN says "OVENS ARE THE WAY OF THE FUTURE!" about Mr. Coffee Toast-R-Oven

MR.COFFEE OVENS IS THE BEST WHEN YOUR NOT USEING THE DAM THING BUT WHEN YOU START TO USE THIS OVEN IT GET REALLY HOT AND IF YOUR NOT CAREFUL YOU WILL BURN YOUR LEFT AND RIGHT HAND BUT I THINK I WAS USING THIS PRODUCT IN A Different WAY THEN YOUR SPOUSE TO. I WAS MELTING ARMY MAN AND RUBBER CONDOMS DON'T ASK ME WHY I JUST THOUGHT IF I DID THIS IT WOULD COOK MY TOAST FASTER THEN IT USE TO. WELL FOR ONE THING THERE WAS PLASTIC ALL INSIDE OF IT SO WHO WOULD EVEN WANT TO PUT TOAST INTO THE TOASTER AGAIN . SO I LEFT IT SET FOR A WHILE THEN ONE DAY SOMEONE WANTED TO COOK TOAST AND I SMELT THE PLASTIC BURNING BUT IT WAS TO LATE THEY HAD ALREADY MADE TOAST AND HAD EATEN IT SO THINKS TO MR.COFFEE IT'S NOW CALLED MR.TRASHY....

rklobstr says "Indispensible." about Sunbeam toaster oven 6201

rklobstr — Tue, 05 May 2009 15:02:41 GMT

I use my Sunbeam Toaster Oven 6201 for everything. Every morning I make toast and it always comes out exactly perfect. The heat is very consistant and reliable. The timer and heat controls are accurate every time. I use it for broiling bruschetta, for baking potatoes, for baking french bread pizza and for warming up garlic bread. After making some dishes in the microwave, I often put them into the Sunbeam toaster oven for a little browning under the broiler, especially a dish topped with cheese. I know I can rely on it to perform as expected. The exterior finish is white so it blends in with the rest of my kitchen. This surface is easy to keep clean. The inside of the glass door, however, does get dirty and this stuff is not easily removed. I like the crumb tray but it would be better with fewer nooks and crannies where crumbs fall. I can never get all the crumbs out. Grease is especially hard to clean out of the nooks and crannies, and off the inside of the glass...

airj says "Great for everyday use like toasting, baking nuggets and more!" about Black & Decker TR0964

airj — Mon, 04 May 2009 22:10:33 GMT

I was looking for a small toaster oven for everyday small uses like toasting bread, baking nuggets, fish sticks and stuff. I had bought another one for a similar price but it didn't bake and the the toast burned on one side while the other side didn't even brown, so I returned it.

I bought this one for $30 and it does well for the price. Bakes well, toasts evenly, is small and does not take much space on my counter. Others had complained about how loud the timer is but I don't think it's loud enough to be bothersome. I don't plan on baking muffins or anything similar, so I can't say how does in that area but I am highly satisfied with it.

luckydee33 says "I am actually afraid to use this Hamilton Beach Toaster oven" about Hamilton Beach Toaster - Toastation

luckydee33 — Mon, 04 May 2009 19:38:09 GMT

I purchased the Hamilton Beach Toaster Over - Toastastion about 5 months ago and it does not toast evenly. I would have to sit and watch it until toast was done because when it was done it would pop out of toaster onto floor unless i caught it in time.

Called Hamilton Beach and they told me to cut plug off and send it to them with check for $6.00 and they would send me another one. I did that and did receive another toaster oven and still had the same problem with it. It does not toast evenly.

And anytime you use the oven you have to sit and watch it for fear of fire.

Do not leave the plug in the wall if not using it because it gets hot. I would not recomment this apliance.

Heather234 says "The Black and Decker Convection Oven works great" about Black & Decker Covection Oven

Heather234 — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 16:47:02 GMT

I just love my Convection Oven because I can do everything in there that a regular oven can cook. Making dinner or any kind of sweets is faster and does not heat up the house which is important. Just baked a whole chicken in it the other night and it came out very good not dry very moist, also I bake muffins, cakes,pizza etc. I can just set the correct temp and set the timer and forget about it until the meal is done comes out perfect all the time. Everyone needs a Convection oven like this one. Love it!

zipknitter says "better then the stove for quick jobs" about Hamilton Beach Toaster Over #31507

zipknitter — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 00:30:18 GMT

I bought the Hamilton Beach Toaster Oven because I was tired of heating up the stove just to cook pizza or biscuits and don't enjoy the way it stays hot to just run up the electric bill. The toaster oven does a great job and is a major saving on light bills. We use it for just about everything but turkeys for the holidays now it's just the two of us at home. It gets a bit too hot on the outside but I just set it on tiles and now the counter is fine. The food we cook in it is done just right and we like cinnamon broiler toast a lot so it is much easier to fix it this way then trying to do it under the big broiler. It is high enough that I don't have to bend when trying to take things out and I can keep a good watch on the food to make sure it isn't overcooked. Don't think we want to be without this oven as it is used so often these days.

suzzz says "My Munsey is a nice oven, its light and great for a small space." about Munsey M-88

suzzz — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 05:07:22 GMT

I have the Munsey M-88 toaster oven. It is small, for my small space and its very light to move around. It comes in White, which is another reason that I chose it over the others. It has a timer for toasting or cooking short times under 5 minutes, that when set, goes off when it reaches the time I set. This is very handy for reheating foods or toasting bread.. It also can be set like a regular oven, with any degree of temperature needed, but there is not a timer, so you so have to watch the time yourself. It also has a broiler and can be set to different temperatures.

It comes with a crumb tray and a cooking tray. It has a dark colored glass on the front so you can see in, but it is also dark enough so you don't have to worry about someone seeing how dirty it may be inside. The glass and the metal outer shell are both very easily cleanable. It has a red light on the front when it is in a heating mode, so you know that's its on.

tinkerbell423 says "OK for the price but I wouldn't buy it again" about Euro-Pro TO140L Toaster Oven

tinkerbell423 — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 19:06:02 GMT

Our toaster of 15 years broke and we needed to replace it. Needless to say we had not looked around at toasters much before purchasing this one. We found the Euro-toaster model number TO140L for $30. It toasts, broils, and can be used on oven setting with temperature controll. You then turn the bottom knob and the timer ticks away while it toasts. It ticks even when it is not plugged in. This really confused us. We would think we were toasting something and it wasn't plugged in but it was ticking away. Once we figured out how to work it we found that the dial was not a good gage of "toastedness" it either came out not toasted enough or burnt. You basically need to stand by the toaster and grab it when it looks done. I find this annoying and often burn the toast. My other issue with the toaster is it takes up a great deal of room on the counter. Overall the toaster does what it needs to do and then price is OK however it is not overly convenient or easy to use.

kiwi713 says "Black & Decker not only makes good tools put one in your kitchen" about Black & Decker Toast-R-Oven

kiwi713 — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 00:36:06 GMT

I have had two toaster ovens in 20 years. Yes, only two. Black and Decker toaster ovens are very reliable and sturdy. I have had an under the counter one and currently use one that sits on the counter. I will never buy any other brand. The original one still works - I gave it to my daughter when she moved out and got myself another one.

The one I have currently is called the Black & Decker Toast-R-Oven. It has a self cleaning tool that really works like a real oven.. It cleans up very easily and is very user friendly. My daughter uses the 20 year old under the counter one as an on the counter. She is very happy with the used one I gave her.

So, there you have it. Black and Decker means quality in the kitchen as well as in the mens tools department. I hope I have helped you in some way to make your decision. I guarantee you will not be sorry if you buy a Toaster Oven with the name of Black and Decker on it.

Bygons13 says "Small & Powerful" about Black & Decker Countertop Convection Oven

Bygons13 — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:47:22 GMT

With 2 kids, I was looking for a convenient way of making frozen (snack) items without having to heat up the entire house with the stove. We purchased the Black & Decker Countertop Convection oven and love it. This oven has 10 different items that are already preset with timing and temperature for best cooking. Some items are pizza, frozen snacks, baked potato, bagel, etc. The stainless steal outer material was perfect for matching the other stainless steal appliances in my house. The convection item uses electricity rather than gas from my stove, which also saves on money. It heats up in about 1/4 the time it takes to heat the regular stove to the same temperature. Be careful when removing the item, as the outer part of the oven (glass and handle) become very hot. I highly recommend this item and the price point was very reasonable at $70 from a warehouse club. About $90 from a retail store.
