6-slice stainless steel convection toaster oven

DON'T BUY IT! - Grandma 10 - Massachusetts
I owned this product for only 3 months and all the heating elements died. The only thing that will work is the fan. I called the office (warranty) to have it replaced and I was going to have to pay to have it shipped to them to have it repaired and/or replaced. I don't think I should be responsible for paying for a product that lasts only 3 months and end up spending just as much money on shipping as I would to replace it! The company is not very helpful in resolving the problem. I will NEVER purchase another Euro-Pro again!

Worst "toaster" "oven" ever! - Mia Kenig - Portland, OR
About a couple of weeks after buying this toaster oven the convection fan started to rattle when in use. And not a low subtle rattle either - it was very loud. Then soon after, the door started to rattle due to the vibration the convection fan made when it rattled. I had to put a spoon in the door to at least prevent one of the noises while using the oven. The oven never really toasted at all and barely cooked very well. The elements never got red and so the broil never worked either. I couldn't wait to get rid of this toaster oven and now have a better one that actually functions.

Fine convection oven and burner of toast - Traveler - New England
I've been using this "toaster" convection oven for well over a year now and can say without hesitation that this will NOT function well as a toaster. If you need a small oven to function as an oven this will work great. The convection function (air flow) helps with that.

Like all "toaster" ovens in this class, the problem is primarily the egg timer. That's all it is. It's a mechanical timer that has to be twisted enough to go through its full cycle (to zero and then ding). If you don't do that the oven shuts off and never reaches the end of the timer. Problem is, you end up burning your toast. A LOT. This toaster has sent more slices of bread to their grave than I can count.

My recommendation: Don't get ANY toaster oven unless it is an electric timer that precisely measures the cooking time. These egg timer models are worthless as toasters.
