First off, you will NOT find a better toaster oven for the money. I got mine for . The next closest in price with a digital temp display was just under 0. And for me, getting a toaster oven without a digital readout was pointless. I didn't want to use one of those manual dials where you have to guesstimate the time and temps. I want to know that 350 @ 2 minutes is exactly that, and not just loose parameters.
This DeLonghi does NOT burn my toast. I use the T6 setting with the rack on the middle setting. Grilled cheese comes out perfectly, as does toast. I've also cooked breakfast burritos, taquitos, ham & cheese sandwiches and small frozen dinners all with great success and ease. And the food tastes great! This thing is wonderful!
Yes, this does beep when it's finished cooking, but I like the beeps. It's not overly loud, yet can easily be heard even if I'm in the next room. It's hardly like those annoying alarm clocks or anything of the like. Truth is, I don't see how they could have made this any better. You'd be a fool to pass this up for a more expensive digital model, or a less efficient manual knob model. Those knob ones remind me of those old-fashioned (and useless) egg timers -- it's virtually impossible to get accurate time with those.
Bottom Line -- DeLonghi has made a superior product here, and at an affordable price. I would definitely buy this again and recommend to others. It's hard to beat and you won't find anything this good at the price. No need to spend hundreds when this one is perfect as is! Very happy with this purchase.
Best in class toaster oven - Kathyxl -
I just bought this toaster oven at a local department store after my black & decker one died. The black & decker
was never a good product - but it is hard to find a well made toaster oven. I purchased and tried a Cuisinart - was too large and did not work well. It was plus.
I was ready to go the traditional toaster route, when I came across the DeLonghi. I like the smaller size and it is very easy to use and clean. Many of the cheaper toasters only have one toasting bar across the top and bottom, resulting in an inferior toast. Also,it is very easy to open the bottom to clean out crumbs etc. Everyone in the family likes this product so much we are going to buy another one at Amazon and keep it for my son's apartment next year!
Good But Not Durable - Joana -
I've had this oven for less than two years. I liked it a lot at first - controls are not the most intuitive, but it did the job. Right around the time it was turning one year old, the display broke. As the product was still under warranty, customer support sent me a new one (not before they asked me for a piece of the power cord as proof what I had was unusable). What I thought was just bad luck turned out to be a real quality issue - a few weeks ago, the display of my replacement model broke again... and soon after the entire oven ceased to work. This time around my warranty is over, and I'm online shopping for a different brand!
