Hamilton Beach Easy Reach 4-Slice Countertop Toaster Oven With Roll-Top Door, 1200 Watts, Fits 9” Pizza, 3 Cooking Functions for Bake, Broil and Toast, Silver (31344DA)

I have been on the hunt for the perfect toaster oven for weeks. We needed something with a small footprint, a crumb tray, adjustable shelving and reliability. We didn't need any frills - just a basic oven that toasts bread and reheats leftovers. I don't know why that was so hard to find! Most toaster ovens these days come with features that we don't need and you end up paying double the cost.I just got the toaster oven today and put it to the test. It was incredibly easy to unpack! It's also very lightweight and fits on our counter perfectly. I set the temperature with the top dial and the time to the bottom dial. That old familiar timer sound was music to my ears! It says, "I'm reliable."The pizza slice actually heated up ahead of time so I was able to manually stop the process by turning the dial down to "off" and heard the "ding" sound. It was perfectly reheated, no burning, and there were no chemical smells upon first try.But the BEST part of all is the door! I LOVE the way it swings back out of the way, so when you remove the food out of the oven, there's no dripping on the glass since it's behind the unit. It's also so cute with its diminutive stature!This is day one so, if any updates are required, I'll do so but I'm very happy!

This oven caught my eye with it's unique look. The style is not your typical box shaped oven. I love the way this oven looks. I bought this toaster to use for science experiments and especially shrink plastic crafting in my STEAM classroom. This toaster oven is streamline and sleek looking. I love the stainless steel color. It is easy to clean especially with the way the door opens upward. This makes taking hot items out of the oven safer and easy- you don't have to worry about accidentally bumping your arm getting things out it since the door goes up and over. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality toaster oven that heats quickly, evenly, and it really is the perfect size, not huge and not tiny.

The media could not be loaded. I received this toaster oven today and so far I've only tried toast in it which it does an awesome job toasting. it comes with a wire rack and then the wire rack has a little shelf under it that you can put the roasting pan onto to use as a drip pan for if you do meats like chicken or fish on top of the wire rack so their juices go into the drip pan. the drip pan can be taken out from under the wire rack and use on top of the wire rack for things like potatoes and french fries and roasting vegetables etc. I gave it a four star review for now until I try other things like chicken and fish because I only tried toast for now which as I said turned out awesome (see pictures) I really like that it is roll top door which saves on counter space and keeps you safe from getting burned like others do with doors that lay down in the counter . there is no odd smells from this when it's running and obviously it's not very loud because my dog was not afraid of it and she is usually afraid of appliances when they are running but this did not phase her at all. it will be a great asset to me for the summer months when I don't want to use the big stove just to make chicken or fish sticks or to just reheat leftovers etc i also plan to try some beef with vegetables in it at some point. once I try these items I may come back and give it a five star review so keep watching for an update

We love love love this toaster oven. Our old one gave up the ghost after years (and I do mean years) of multiple usage every day, and we were so glad we found another one. Heats up quickly, bakes items, and the removable door and crumb tray make it super easy to clean.

Works as it should once I got used to settings. Depending on type of bread I had to figure out what level of brown for toast. Easy to monitor. Easy to clean

After my toaster over with the slots on top and oven on the side started to malfunction, had a hard time finding a replacement as it was discontinued. My main purpose for it is to toast bread, waffles andheating up bagels (makes is easier to slice and then I toast them).After much research, decided on this model as it was the smallest size for my counter space and reviews looked pretty good; they did not disappoint!The Pros so far from my experience:* Rounded front door helps it take up a little less space than the traditional rectangle version,even visually less space.* Easier access to place/remove food from toaster oven with a wide opening when door is open.* Plenty of room for 4 breads/bagels. I only used for two at a time as in the photo.* Bake Pan, Oven Rack & Crumb Tray included.* Great option for when you don't want to use the conventional oven for cooking!(will update when I test this portion).* The Door Is Removable For Easy Cleaning.[Directions: Open the door, in the open position lift up to remove door for cleaning.reverse process to insert door back into toaster oven.]Con:* The instructions is off when it comes to temperature for toasting bread.Adjust according to your liking. The temperature used in this photo is 300 degrees;not the toast icon all the way in the end by 450 degrees (will be burnt toast).For bagels, I turn the knob down between 250 - about 275 degrees.That is all I can think of for con.Precautions:* Be Gentle With The Timer Knob:If you turn it on by mistake without plugging in first (as I already did, lol), wait for the timer to ding for finish. Then plug it in and restart the timer.Not worth risking breaking the mechanism trying to speed up to reset the timer knob.* Disconnect plug from outlet when not in use.* When finished toasting, wait a few seconds after opening the door (oven heats pretty good)to let the heat out and then remove the food.Happy with the purchase! Wonderful upgrade!
