Toastmaster 1740 Immersion 2-Speed Hand Blender, White Review

(More customer reviews)
I cannot believe the low price of this blender. It compares very well to other offerings from Cuisinart and Braun (and even feels more powerful on the high-speed setting). The cord is long and flexible (very handy in a crowded kitchen environment) and the motor is unusually quiet. This was such an incredible deal, I ordered another one as a gift.

Calphalon HE650CO XL 1400-Watt 0.7-Cubic-Foot 6-Slice Convection Oven Review

Calphalon HE650CO XL 1400-Watt 0.7-Cubic-Foot 6-Slice Convection Oven
Average Reviews:

I had very high hopes for this oven. It has the Calphalon name on it. Their PR write up sounds so promising. The warranty is good. The oven is handsome. Too bad it fails as an oven though. I tested this oven thoroughly upon receipt. I knew I had to make sure this was a keeper given the price. Save your money and buy a $60 toaster oven. It is important to share that I never use a 'big' oven. Normal ovens pull 3500 watts. They cost a fortune and the overwhelming majority of people don't need such a cavernous appliance. So I bake a lot and everything in countertop ovens. This oven suffers from bad design flaws. You can only use the middle rack position or you will burn the top or bottom of your food. There is almost no internal clearance for anything but the shallowest casserole dish. If you use the rack in the inverted position facing downwards (it has a 'dip' design to - not flat) and pull the rack out to safely remove the dish, the dish slides at a fast clip right out of the oven - almost lost a dish as it rapidly headed for the floor. This is happening because the rack tips down once you pull it forward enough to safely grasp the hot pan. Now I had to flip the rack and use it in that position due to the excessively low clearance - my small casserole dish wouldn't fit and I couldn't move the rack down lest I burn the food - you see where this circle never ends. This occurred regardless of using a casserole dish or a bake sheet. And the back left quadrant cooks much faster than the rest of the oven. I had to watch the food and rotate the pan - talk about aggravating. The back of the oven is actually angled forward presenting a really strange limitation on what it can really hold. I tested many different types of items in the oven to be as thorough and fair as I possibly could especially since it came in such a large packing box. It is going to be a pain to return but return I must unless I feel like cursing everytime I attempt to use it. I am wondering if the people who designed this ever actually used it? A few design changes and this product wouldn't be such a beast.
Clarification: There is an 'edge' to the rack that, when used with the invert facing upwards will stop any dish from sliding out. But the loss of clear space above means only pans or very shallow dishes can be used. Tried using it in this position in the lowest slots but that was still so close to the lower elements that the bottom of the cinnamon rolls burned. Just want to be specific about the issues faced. I am looking for a counter top oven that does more than just pizza, biscuits, etc.. I believe the enclosed user guide mentioned you could use this oven to cook a chicken. It had better be either a cut up one or a miniature one.

Attractively housed in stainless steel, this convection oven not only looks great on the countertop, it also provides an array of convenient features. The appliance bakes, broils, and toasts, and its large 0.7-cubic-foot capacity can accommodate a 9-by-13-inch pan, a 12-inch pizza, or six slices of bread, bagel halves, or English muffin halves. To toast, simply press the "toast" button and select from "light", "medium", or "dark" shade settings. For baking, turn the temperature control knob to the desired heat setting, ranging from 250 to 450 degrees F, then set the timer up to 60 minutes or choose the "always on" setting for continuous operation. For convection baking, simply push the button and the convection fan circulates warm air around food during the baking cycle for superior browning and even baking or roasting. Or, turn the control knob to "broil" and set the timer; the unit's upper heating element will quickly sear meats or melt cheese on garlic bread. A chime will sound once the timer ticks down to zero, or with the "always on" setting, the unit will shut off automatically after two hours. Other highlights include an Opti-Heat system for premium heating, a glass door for checking on the cooking progress at a glance, a high-performance bronze nonstick interior, and a removable crumb tray for quick cleanup. Accessories include a nonstick heavy-gauge 9-by-13-inch baking pan/broil rack and an easy-to-follow instruction book. With its sleek, contoured shape, the 1400-watt convection oven measures 16 by 17-2/3 by 10-2/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

I recently owned two Toastmaster products and both are now in the local landfill. One broke after 4 months, 4-slice toaster,
and is not covered under any warranty. One of the darkness knobs popped out and the darkness is uncontrollable??? Toastmaster ignored all emails sent to them about this one.
Their griddle product is horrible. After approxiamately 6 uses,
the griddle began cooking uneven. They acknowledged one of my emails but never followed through. It took 60 days of my time, for nothing.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. THIER LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTIES ARE JUST PROMISES.

It toasts, broils, and bakes. There's room for four slices of toast and the rack conveniently slides forward when you open the door. A non-stick interior and drop down crumb tray facilitate cleaning and the large viewing window lets you see what's going on inside. All in all a very serviceable unit for a very reasonable price.

Proctor Silex 4-Slice Toaster Oven/Broiler - Black (31955) Review

I wanted a simple toaster oven to make toast and heat up open sandwiches - nothing fancy- nothing expensive It was hard to find because everything has a convection oven (which I didnt' need) which drives the price up into a range I didn't want to pay. This oven meets my needs - it toasts well and quickly - fits 4 slices very tightly (is a little smaller/shorter height inside than I expected.) Easy to see the toast due to rounded door design - I think it was worth the money.

West Bend 6112 Panini Press and Sandwich Maker Review

West Bend 6112 Panini Press and Sandwich Maker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Firstly let me tell you why all the others suck : I had a fancy Cuisinart for 2 months with the removable heating plates and ended up throwing it way. They are made into "sandwhich shapes" for whatever reason and are supposedly dishwasher safe - NONSENSE . The problem here is that they are impossible to clean. I think the "crinkle cut" ones are also going to be super hard to keep clean. Everything sticks to them - so you have to be very aggressive when you remove your sandwich especially since everything is unbelievably hot and you have starving kids plucking at you. FRUSTRATING.
The West Bend on the other hand is flat. Just use a spatula and the sandwhich pops off. No need to use butter or Pam. Wait for it to cool and then wipe with a damp paper towel. I think the big thing is to not scratch the non stick surface - and the fact that this one is flat makes a big difference. It also has plenty of heat to warm everything up all the way through without having to burn the bread. No temp controls - really don't miss them.There is an indicator to tell you when the press is at temperature. All you need.
Very nice product - very nice price. I was prepared to spend up to $300 and I just got this. Very very happy! If all you want is a really good (small - or should that be compact ) toasted sandwich maker (2 max ) - stop here and just buy it.
Yes it won't do nice grill marks on chicken or on your sandwiches - but who cares.
It also has ridges all round the bottom - so the fat/chess etc doesn't run out and onto the counter - most of the others just let it ooze out the front .. (if you are lucky )

With a two sided cooking surface for even grilling and toasting and a floating hinge that automatically adjusts to accommodate any size sandwich, toast or snack, this Panini Press sandwich maker does the job. The non-stick cooking surface makes for easy cleanup and the power on and ready light makes this easy to operate.. Storage space is minimal since this unit stands upright when not in use.

I purchased this product and think it is great!. We had a delonghi toaster for a short while, and it never failed to burn toast , bagels or anything else we put in it. It could never regulate the temperature. Would NEVER buy another Delonghi product. This product toasts evenly and perfect, bakes to perfection and rotisseries a small chicken or game hen evenly. .It has a little handle pull for the racks and trays which make removing a pizza or larger items easy, and a full size bottom crumb rack . The rotisserie attachment is easy to insert or remove. Makes toast in a reasonable amount of time. The best part is: it is self-cleaning. I'm happy with it.

Cuisinart CPT-140 Toaster, 4 Slice Review

Cuisinart CPT-140 Toaster, 4 Slice
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When we started looking for a new toaster after the death of our last, we realized we needed to upgrade to a 4 slot with our growing family. We live in a small apartment however and lots of counter space was out of the question. So first we got a Dualit, after reading all the reviews. Well, it needs to be prewarmed for best results and it gets incredibly hot to the touch, not too great for little fingers. So back it went and more reviews to read. We ended up getting the Cuisinart Cool Touch and although we worried about the reviews that mentioned an uneven warming problem, it hasn't happened for us. The toaster toasts quickly and well and yes, evenly on both sides--so far both toast and bagels have been great. It's easy to use and clean, has a great "lift the toast higher" feature and doesn't get hot on the outside. Oh and yes, it doesn't take up much room on the counter. So far, the best toaster we've ever had.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Cuisinart CPT-140 Toaster, 4 Slice

Enjoy the efficient convenience of two toasters in one with this four-slice toaster by Cuisinart. The unit features two independent LED touchpad controls that make it possible to toast two separate orders simultaneously. Choose the "bagel" function to toast just the cut side of bagels while gently warming the outside, "defrost" for items like frozen waffles, "reheat" for heating previously toasted items, and "cancel" for ending the toasting cycle at any time. Furthermore, its nine-setting LED backlit browning dials allow for adjusting the shade setting from light to dark. The toaster's 1-1/2-inch-wide toasting slots easily accommodate anything from cinnamon-raisin bagels and sourdough English muffins to thick slices of homemade rosemary bread, hamburger buns, and more. Smaller items can be safely removed thanks to the extra-lift carriage levers, and the toaster's handy slide-out crumb tray makes cleanup a snap. Other highlights include curved edges for a sleek look, cord wrap to keep countertops looking tidy, and an instruction book. The compact four-slice toaster measures approximately 12-4/5 by 11-2/7 by 8-2/7 inches and carries a three-year limited warranty.

Waring Pro WTO150 4-Slice Toaster Oven with Built-In 2-Slice Toaster Review

Waring Pro WTO150 4-Slice Toaster Oven with Built-In 2-Slice Toaster
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've done a ridiculous amount of research on toaster ovens, trying to find a better quality one that does not have a nonstick coating (which releases poisonous gas when heated) on the interior of the oven or on the bake pans. I was very happy to find that the Waring model is nonstick-free. (For those who care, the interior is aluminized steel.) I've had the toaster oven for only a week, but so far it works very well. It has a nice solid, industrial feel to it - nothing feels cheap. The dimensions are actually 19" wide,11" deep, 9" tall - the measurements given in the description are way wrong. My husband and I really like the separate toaster slots on top and use them all the time. The interior of the oven is roomy - enough to fit 4 or 5 baked potatoes or 4 slices of traditional-size bread or 2 slices of oversize sandwich bread. I've used it to bake potatoes, broil bacon, brown a chicken and make toast - everything came out fine. The only complaints I have are really just annoyances. First, you can't use the oven without setting the timer, which I guess is a safety feature, because when the timer goes off the power shuts off. But this means if you want to cook something for a couple hours you need to be on the ball and reset the timer to continue baking. I rarely use it for more than 30 minutes so this is not a real problem for me. Second, the rack and bake pans are a pretty tight fit and when I need to change their position it takes a few seconds to line them up right - once I do they go in smoothly. But I wonder if this will be more of a problem in the future when everything gets a bit sticky and warped. I guess I'm skeptical about toaster ovens after reading so many terrible reviews of different brands and models, but I'm happy so far. I hope this one lasts 15 years like my Black & Decker that just gave out.
5/6/10 Two months later, and we have a small problem. The toaster lever won't stay down anymore if the toast 'doneness' knob isn't turned on just before I try toasting (in other words, I can't just leave it on and set to the shade I want). I'll leave my 4-star rating for now, because it has worked consistently if I start from the off position, then turn the knob on, then toast. But I didn't need to do this before. The oven still works fine and I've had no trouble with slowness, as reported by others. If a cookie recipe says 350 for 9 minutes, that's how long it takes with this oven.

Perfect as a second oven or as an energy-efficient alternative to turning on the full-size oven, this countertop appliance offers a large 0.45-cubic-foot capacity that can accommodate up to four slices of bread at a time. Its user-friendly control panel consists of three knobs. The top knob controls the function--choose from bake, broil, or toast; the middle knob adjusts the temperature up to 450 degrees F; and the bottom knob allows for setting the timer up to 30 minutes, as well as selecting the shade setting when toasting bread. Best of all, the toaster oven features a built-in two-slice toaster, which makes it possible to bake, broil, or toast in the oven while simultaneously toasting bagels, bread, English muffins, frozen waffles, and other favorites in the toaster. The toaster offers a simple lowering lever, its own light to dark shade settings with a "cancel" option, and a "bagel" button for warming the outside while toasting the cut side of bagels. Other highlights include 1500 watts of power, an "on" indicator light, a see-through oven door to monitor the cooking progress, and brushed stainless-steel housing for an attractive addition to any kitchen counter. A broiling pan and drip tray come included. The toaster oven and toaster measures approximately 13-1/5 by 30-1/5 by 9 inches.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this oven about a year ago and I use it several times a week. It's a little slower than a standard toaster, but that's always the case for toaster ovens, and it seems on par in its own arena. It's a good bit roomier than the Black&Decker ovens I had previously used, and it seems sturdier as well. Additionally, it doesn't cut off when the door is open, which I see as a feature, but some might dislike for safety reasons. Timer and power are consistent. The crumb tray is removable, and it comes with a single shelf, a pan, and a grille for the pan.

Black & Decker CTO4300W Perfect Broil Countertop Oven, White Review

Black and Decker CTO4300W Perfect Broil Countertop Oven, White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is my first countertop oven. I've owned it for about 3 months and love it. So far I've used it to bake or broil muffins, potatoes, chicken legs, garlic bread, Totino's frozen pizza, enchilada casserole, pasta casserole.... not to mention toasted bread, bagels, and English muffins . This oven delivers.

The included drip pan/broil trays are only slightly thicker than disposable aluminum pans but are still useful for broiling. Good news is the size of this oven easily accommodates some of my smaller conventional bake ware such as an 8 X 8 inch Pyrex dish and a 6 cup muffin tin. I like the fact it has 4 heating elements, 2 top, 2 bottom which seems to promote more even heat distribution than the 2 element toaster I've used at the office. I like the 3 mechanical controls. One for temp, one to control the heating coils, and a countdown timer that actually turns the oven off when it dings. The control knobs have a solid feel. There is also a "stay warm" feature that works great for warming dinner plates. Yes, this oven will hold a stack of at least 4 dinner plates and will keep them warm while your regular oven cooks. I also like that the wire grill is offset to provide 4 different elevation levels by simply flipping it over and using either of the 2 side slides. The all glass door is easy to clean. So is the slide out crumb tray. The case gets hot so be sure to check the outside dimensions and give it at least an inch of side clearance. This unit is a little larger than most toaster ovens.
Does this countertop oven replace a conventional oven? Not exactly but it comes close. In a pinch, like a kitchen remodel, a small dorm room or other cramped quarters this oven is a great choice. You could bake, roast, broil, and toast for months using no other appliance. It most certainly replaces a regular oven for small oven jobs like baking two pot pies or 2 baked potatoes or a quick batch of 6 muffins from a mix. I have only used my regular oven twice since this oven arrived. I like having a second oven capacity in my small apartment kitchen. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Perfect as a second oven or as an energy-efficient alternative to turning on the full-size oven, this countertop appliance can toast up to four slices of bread at a time, as well as bake, broil, and keep food warm. Three user-friendly control knobs make it easy to select the function, adjust the temperature up to 450 degrees F, and set the time up to 60 minutes (or choose the "stay on" position). The timer knob also functions as the light-to-dark shade selector for toast, and it provides an audible signal to indicate when the time's up. Thanks to its large capacity, the oven can accommodate a family-size casserole, and because of its extra-deep curved interior, a 12-inch pizza fits with no problem. Even more, the countertop oven comes equipped with a 1500-watt quartz element for fast heating, and its Perfect Broil system maintains a consistent set temperature to help ensure excellent results. Other highlights include a power indicator light, a reversible chrome-plated slide rack, upper and lower rack slots, a glass door for easy viewing, and a removable crumb tray for quick cleanup. Accessories consist of a broil rack, a bake pan/drip tray, and a handy user manual with recipes. The countertop oven measures approximately 16-1/5 by 20 by 12-3/5 inches.

This is a nice, more reasonable sized toaster oven, that does a very good job of grilling and broiling. I wish you didn't have to reset the toaster settings every single time you make toast, though. That kept it from being 5 stars, as I like every thing else about it. The crumb tray is nice and big, and the styling is attractive.

I read lots and lots of reviews of toaster ovens before I bought. But it seems that very few people out there like the toaster oven they have. The ones with the highest ratings were only available online - and in some cases the shipping was almost as much as the toaster!
I got this one at a local store - on sale. It is a nice compact size for the counter, yet seems to have plenty of space inside. Toasts very even (several settings - chose medium the first time and worked perfect). It has a timer so there is a bell when the toast is finished.
I also like the fact that when you use the oven, you also can set a timer. My previous one did not have this and many times I would forget to shut it off and it would run for hours (very dangerous).
I am very pleased with this toaster oven overall -- it does the job it is supposed to and is a great value for the money.

We looked at a number of ovens and wanted something that did the basic things and didn't take up too much space. No convection (we have a convection oven) and no digital - its just a basic appliance. We looked at the B&D 240 but this just seemed too basic and too flimsy. Then we saw this one. It has all the basics, it's a good, small size and its silver / black which matches our kitchen. It has 3 controls (as compared to the basic model w/ 2) making it easy to select temp, function and time. The handle is securely attached to the glass door -the metal ends wrap around the glass so it won't fall off (a complaint about other ovens). It has a nice slide out crumb tray that has access from the front with the oven door close - this makes it very easy to empty. Nicely toasted our first bagel in just a few minutes and it was very evenly browned, something our regular toaster did not do well at all.
Pros
Gets hot fast
Basic controls work well
Easy access crumb tray
Even toasting and heating
Cons
Not many
The top and sides do get hot so don't store anything on this!
