BLACK+DECKER 6-Slice Convection Countertop Toaster Oven, Stainless Steel, TO3210SSD

I love my Black and Decker 6 slice Counter Toaster. It fits right on the counter and looks great. It warms up very quickly and does a wonderful job of roasting vegetables and toasting bagels. It comes with a little pan which I cover with nonstick aluminum foil before placing anything on it. Setup and figuring out the knobs is very easy. The two bottom knobs make pleasant ticking sounds when in use. It sounds really cute when both are going at the same time. The analog knob design is probably more fitting for a retro kitchen, but because it is stainless steel it looks modern. You can roast or heat foods in here at a different temperature than what your main oven is roasting at. Do dinner in the oven, and cookies or grilled fruit for dessert in this. This also does perfect roasted peppers. The skin is charred just right and pops right off. The toaster is perfect for households of 2-4 people. This would make a wonderful gift for someone moving into a dorm, apartment, or setting up a kitchen area for their small business. Those who are wary of using microwaves will probably like this also. I recommend this for anyone who wants to cook small meals and not turn on their stove, its well worth the price.

I was excited to begin using the Black & Decker Dining In Countertop Convection Oven in my kitchen! It is a great alternative to heating the large oven when you just need to cook something small or make cinnamon toast. I've also used it, rather than the microwave, to reheat leftovers. Microwaving pizza leaves you with a limp crust, but heating it up in this oven allows you to regain the crispness and makes it taste as fresh as when it was first baked. We have also made canned cinnamon rolls and found this oven to be the perfect size to do so. The knobs are easily understood, so directions for use are not necessary. Just set the temperature and time (and the darkness, if you are toasting) and you are ready to bake, broil, or toast. I would recommend this oven for side dishes, breakfast items, pizza (one frozen pizza fits perfectly), or broiling a serving or two of French Onion Soup. Not only does this use less energy than heating up the large oven, but it doesn't add as much heat to your kitchen as using a larger oven. I am happy with the design - silver with black accents and a glass door - and the size - it fits easily on the countertop. I was pleased that it came with a short cord because the outlet I use it located directly behind it on the wall above the counter, and I didn't have to coil extra cord behind it. (I also think this might accompany us on our next camping trip. It is portable and will give us additional options for cooking at the camp site. However, we may need an extension cord for outdoor use.)
