Love this toaster oven!

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2024

This is the second toaster oven I’ve had both were zoster brand and they are great! Very fast cooking and the toast is nice. I turn down the temperature when I toast a piece of bread so it toast evenly. Great buy for the price. Recommend this product.

Jaime T,

Nice little toaster oven, but front gets very hot

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2023

Pros: looks good, actually gets up to higher temps unlike some (it did run about 25 degrees hotter than set at all settings, but I don't expect precision in a toaster oven)

Con: front face gets very hot at higher internal temps, way too hot to touch. Accidentally touched the front and ouch! Not actually burned in the brief encounter, but ouch. Disappointed as it's harder to find good compact toaster ovens, but sending it back.

I like it a lot. And it is VERY SIMPLE to use !

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2023

It's uncomplicated, very efficient, and cooks fast on "turbo" setting. The temperature is accurate too -- I checked it with a separate oven thermometer. It does everything right, which is always nice ! It would be better if it had an interior light and if the dials were easier to read, but for the price it does everything important quite well. ( I marked the dials so I can see them, and keep a tiny flashlight nearby to check on the progress of what's cooking. . . .)

This is a nice little countertop toaster/convection oven for the money!

Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2016

I thoroughly research things before I buy, and this appears to be a quality product at a bargain price (although I did not buy it here, got it for less than $35 w/ free shipping from 'Wmart'.) It is a nice looking metal unit, no cheap plastic knobs to break (like my last one), and it made great even toast right out of the box. Haven't used the oven yet, but am looking forward to having convection again, which I had years ago and was always pleased with for even cooking. And it's got a 5 year satisfaction guarantee, so can't go wrong with that, I love that the manufacturer has that much faith in its product. The direction booklet is easy to understand but sparse (not even a couple recipes, but at this price you can buy a little cookbook for $10 as I did), but the controls are very easy to read and use, I love that they are in English, not stupid little pictures that I have no idea what they mean! The only reason this is not a five star review is I wish it had a nicer non-stick pan and its just a tad too small to use the one I saved (enamel) from a previous oven, but it does fit my 8x8 Pyrex (w/handles) and other assorted ovenware I already have. This is a perfect size for a college dorm, small apartment, singles or couples, or anyone not wanting to heat up the kitchen with the big stove, just be aware that it will not fit a large pizza, a turkey, or dinner for a hungry family of 4, and you won't be disappointed!

GREAT little oven!

Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2023

This is my second one! The first one lasted over 7 years of almost daily use. I'm hoping this one lasts as long. It's practical. Small enough for the countertop. Easy to use.

When my old one died, I got one of those big, fancy ovens with an air fryer. Yes, it's nice but not practical. Unless it's working "by itself" it kicks the breaker in the kitchen. The air fryer tends to spatter grease on the inside. Big Bummer. Also, the LED stuff is very hard for old eyes to see. That means stuff that requires a visual verification is very hard to use. Maybe impossible in the future.

Enter my Oster oven. The accessibility is so much better. I love the dials! Much easier to use. I have "bump dots" on 350 and 400 degrees. I leave it on bake, but I know broil is one notch to the left if I need it. I have my Echo with Alexa set a timer. Done!

When I first got. it, I put in an oven thermometer to check the accuracy so I'd know. It's right on! Set the oven at 425 and I get 425! This means I can use it with confidence -- even more so since it's my second one. Note to self: bigger and expensive isn't always better!

We use the oven for baking and toasting items. It does an excellent job and look nice on the countertop. A good buy for the money.

MidWestern Review

hurry buy this before they are all gone

Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2022

Verified Purchase

I think this is an older model as there are only a few toaster ovens still available with a "stay on" feature and will not go off as it does when using the timer selection. Have used this for making toast, cooking hot dogs, baking bread (2 bread pans fit side by side perfectly), roasting a chicken (need to buy a small roast pan), cooking meat loaf and also for warming up leftovers, much better than the microwave which makes the food soggy. Reheat pizza in the toaster oven is incredible and crisp. I wanted a toaster oven with mechanical dials and not a computer screen that can reach at least 450 degrees.. This should last a while. Few of my friends also purchased the same after seeing mine. ps... will not fit 6 slices of bread for toast, unless you want to cut the last slice and place in the rack lengthwise.

Great toaster oven

Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2023

Looks great on the counter and works like a dream. Got so used to our old one that we forgot how good it can be to have a great new toaster oven! Heats quickly and evenly. Love the new turbo function for convection cooking.

Extremely Short Cord-Live in Older Home Have to Move the Toaster Over to Use it Every Single Time

Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2023

I didn't have this problem with the last version I owned. It also makes lots of knocking noises when heating. Definitely could be improved upon. On the plus side it doesn't have the toxic coatings found in many toaster overs which is real plus.

Adequate for me, runs hotter than setting

Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2023

Verified Purchase

More flimsy, def weighs less than previous versions but I was constrained by space for this appliance. Runs way hotter than the setting dial.
