Best Toaster Oven Overall

(May 21, 2009)

Toaster oven popularity is on the rise these days and it's no wonder because this is one appliance that maximizes function and convenience, while keeping the kitchen cool and energy bills down. And in most cases, it even saves cooking time. In addition to cooking meal items, you can make the morning toast or bagel (replacing the standard toaster) and get creative with made-at-home, economical snacks. While there are many models that deliver good performance and function, the mid-price range actually gives you the best value for your money.

You can use a lower-priced toaster oven for heating, baking, or making snacks or toast, but if you want one for cooking and roasting meals, cooking technology and performance are extremely important, as is capacity. Choose a toaster oven based on what you'll use it for, capacity to suit your needs (6 or 4-slice), cooking preferences, convenience features that matter to you and an easy-to-clean interior for quick clean-ups. Space is also an important consideration - they take a sizable amount of counter space. You should also allow adequate room above the unit for heat build-up.
