Hamilton Beach 22708 Toastation 2-Slice Toaster and Mini Oven, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When our beloved 30 year old (from dorm days!) toaster oven died, we thought we'd go buy one just like it -- basic, small, good at toasting, yet usable as a small oven. Alas, nobody seemed to make anything like it. They tended to be larger, and didn't do a good job toasting bread.
After reading lost of discouraging reviews and trying a couple of toaster ovens, we had just about given up, when we saw the Toastation. What a great little unit! Makes great toast, nice and fast like a toaster should (through a slot in the top). Then flip a switch, and the top slot closes and it turns into a nice little oven.
It doesn't hog the whole counter (outside dimensions: 15" wide, 7 1/2 deep, and 8 high). The inside of the oven is small (6 1/2" deep by 10 1/2" wide by 2" high), so don't plan on baking pizza in it.

Save on counter space with this two-in-one appliance. The unit functions as both a traditional toaster and as a toaster oven. As a toaster, it provides a 1-1/2-inch-wide toasting slot that can fit up to two slices of bread, two frozen waffles, or two halves of a bagel or English muffin. Simply drop in the item to be toasted, adjust the shade setting by turning the control knob, and push down the lever on the side. A convenient "cancel" button stops the toasting at any time. Easily switch from the toaster function to the oven by sliding the function lever on the front of the unit. This will seal the toaster slot and trap in the heat. The oven provides a temperature-control knob for just the right amount of heat, and its spacious interior will accommodate chicken nuggets, French fries, two 16-inch pizza slices, or two 5-inch single-serve pizzas. Other thoughtful details include automatic shutoff for safety, a removable crumb tray for quick cleanup, and a sleek, stylish look in a compact design. The two-slice toaster and oven combination unit measures approximately 17 by 9 by 9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.Product is model number 22708, but may be listed as 22708H.

Hamilton Beach 22709 Toastation II Toaster & Oven Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After having an expensive toaster that I loved go bad on me (a Braun) and finding out that Braun no longer will be selling them so they could not replace it, I had to find one that would do the job as well.
The Toastation had the same size single slot as the Braun, so I figured I would try it.
While it does not toast quite as evenly as the Braun did, it is reasonably close. The toast operation is just as speedy as that was, and the added benefit is that for bigger things, or the occasional grilled cheese, I don't have to heat up the big oven, nor do I have to use up counter space for a separate toaster oven.
This version has a "cancel" button in the center of the bottom dial, so when you want to pop up your toast early, it's really easy to do, unlike the earlier model. In addition, there is insulating covering on the handle for the door, so it is much less likely to burn you after using the oven part. Another bonus is that the top is smooth on this one, so there are no seams on the top for crumbs to get caught in. It also has a crumb tray that is easily removable on the bottom of the oven.
Overall, this product definitely works for me. If it is still working in a few months (the Braun broke at 4 months!), I'll post an update.
