Basic Toaster Oven
This toaster was relatively easy to use, performed well and has a cute appearance. It does, however, lack in other areas. The features are rather basic, and there are many other toaster ovens on the market that offer more. The tray appeared to be very low quality, which hindered my overall opinion of the toaster oven quality. I would recommend this product as a great little toaster oven for someone looking for something basic and easy to use. If looking for a higher quality oven with more options, this would not be my first choice. I received a sample of this product in order to conduct this review.

    great oven
    This toaster oven is great for the price. I use it daily. It heats up pretty fast and cooks the food fast. I use it to cook chicken nuggets,corn dogs,pizza rolls, Sandwiches,and even fish. It's compact which works for me because my counter space is limited. I no longer have to use the big oven for the snacks for the kiddos. Overall it's a great oven.

      Great for cooking small jobs
      This oven has made things a little easier in my kitchen. We are able to toast our bread to our own tastes without having to constantly adjust the setting. You can see the toast brown as it cooks and take it out at the appropriate time. Also, we eat a lot of fried foods and they reheat much better in the toaster oven than the microwave. There is not soggy, tasteless mess of fried food you normally get when using a microwave. Small snacks can be cooked in just a few minutes instead of waiting 20 minutes for the oven to preheat. However, it would be nice if the oven was a little larger to hold larger portions of food. The oven itself feels sturdy and the knobs feel tight, but the baking pan included feels very flimsy. Since the oven is so small it can make getting things out difficult. We have found the easiest way is to use a small pair of tongs to pull the rack out and then grab the baking pan. Overall, this oven has replaced our toaster and handles a lot of jobs that are just too small for our conventional oven. I received this product free as part of a promo to review it.

        Works well!
        I recieved this toaster oven as a sample, and so far it has worked just fine. It warms up pretty quickly, and it has baked the cookies I made well. (I made some large-sized cookies, and this oven can bake one at a time.) I keep the oven in my drawer, and it's compact enough to fit nicely. My husband makes toast in it and it works well with that also. So far so good!

          Sleek and Easy to Use
          I've had this toaster oven for a few weeks now and have been able to use it for a wide variety of things. I love being able to melt my butter or cheese right onto my bread. The toast function takes a few tries to get the darkness just right and you have to make sure you turn the dial past 10 each time so that it stops at the right time. It's worked great though for the basics like toast and freezer waffles as well as baking small batches of frozen fish sticks and the like. It's been nice to not have to warm up the oven just to cook a few little things. I love the curved housing and the sleek design of the unit and the removable crumb tray makes cleaning and upkeep much easier. It would be awesome if the exterior didn't get so hot just for safety reasons, but that's to be expected with an oven. I received this product as a sample to review, however I feel that it is a good value for the price and would have been happy had I purchased it.

            Great little toaster oven
            this toaster oven is great and we love it so far. Only issue we had was the try is small in the bottom and crumbs fall off it too easily.

              Broiled Great
              The Oster toaster oven is great. It's easy to use, warms up quickly, and is small enough to not overpower my countertop. I've made salmon in it and it was perfect. I strongly recommend it.

                Great all around product!
                I love this toaster oven, it looks great and it performs great. Of course it does toast like a champ and is great for things like reheating leftovers without getting them all soggy or tough like a microwave. It heats up quickly and is very versatile. I would recommend anyone in the market for a toaster oven to buy this product. Disclaimer- I received this product as a free sample.

                      Great Toaster Oven
                      This toaster oven works well and is attractive. It gets hot and cooks food evenly. I like that you can automatically time and stop the baking mode. The only things I would change would be an indicator light letting you know when the oven is preheated, and a better quality baking pan that is dishwasher safe. Disclosure: I received this toaster as a product sample.

                        As good as it gets!
                        I liked it overall. For what it is and the price you really can't go wrong. It overheats things a little too quickly sometimes. Other than that..good product. I received it as a sample to review.

                          good toaster oven
                          This toaster is great. I Iike the features and the different cooking options. However, I was a little confused with the directions for the toast options as you have to turn the knob past 10 and then back to the desired setting. Overall, this is a good toaster.

                            Compact, great features, works great
                            I got this a month ago and love it. It is so much quicker and easier to use than a conventional oven when cooking something small. It has a variety of setting options to use and it has a nice sleek look to it. No issues whatsoever! *Disclaimer-I received this product as a sample to review.

                              Small but efficient toaster
                              Although this toaster is small, it fits plenty of items inside. The small frame is also a plus for tight spaces. The exterior is solidly built, and the interior shelving slides easily. The knobs are made of plastic, but have seemed to hold up well. I received this product as a sample to test and review.

                                  Great Design!
                                  I absolutely love my oster toaster oven! it gets hot so quickly and I love that it had a built in timer. You can hear the timer speed up a bit when is almost done, so I have built a breakfast routine around it. I love the colors and the size of it! Also, absolutely love that Oster built in a "crumb catcher" to make clean up easier. I wish my microwave had that lol. This is a great product.

                                    Lightweight and user friendly!
                                    I really enjoy my Oster 4 slice toaster oven because it is lightweight and compact which is perfect on my countertop under my cupboards. The controls and extremely user friendly and I like the additional tray and the toast/bake rack option. It makes toast exactly the way I like it and is convenient to cook a quick frozen snack for my kids. *I received a sample of this product to test.

                                      Fire hazard!
                                      Ridiculously dumb design makes this a fire hazard. This has the "Stay On" feature to the left of the Off setting. This means that when you grab a piece of toast before the timer goes off, move the timer counterclockwise to the Off position and don't get it exactly on the Off position, there is a good chance it will be on the Stay On position as you hurry out the door. This has happened three times in the short period I have owned this. Luckily I work from home, so was able to smell something was up before it actually caught fire. This toaster is going in the garbage as I wouldn.t want anyone else to burn down their house due to this idiotic design. Dumb, dumb, dumb!

                                          What has happened to toaster ovens
                                          This is the second oster toaster oven of this size and both have had door trouble. The door would not go over 1/2 way down, this the door mechanism got stuck on the black trim and ripped it off. I needed to bend it to open door but now when door is closed it leaves a big gap at the top.

                                            Too slow to toast
                                            Over six minutes for a single piece of medium toast.
