Hamilton Beach 6 Slice Capacity Toaster Oven - 31508

Toasting a little irregular, but I'm not fussy. Bakes what I need just fine. Sturdy unit.

Great toaster Works well, very attractive.

Very Roomy toaster oven that cooks evenly. Great for snacks or toast. A great replacement for my last piece of junk toaster oven. Definitely recommend!

The toaster is hard to control your toast level. It is an imprecise dial you can never get the same level of toasting twice in a row so you are forced to really keep an eye on the toast. The only good thing is that you have a nice sized window to see in clearly. If you want to only make toast, don't get this. The wire rack could be dangerous IMO. When it is pulled out to extract your toast, it has a tendency to slip out toward you. So now I don't pull the rack out and gingerly stick my hand or a fork in to bring the toast to me, not the rack. Not a good way of doing it. It does have a nice bottom flat plate that I think is just for keeping it clean, very easy to pull out and wash out allowing you to keep the unit clean. With my previous toaster/ovens that don't usually last long, I would toast and cook occasionally small things like fish or even have tried a single steak. I don't use this unit for the reasons stated. Don't feel comfortable other than making toast. I suggest looking at other products, I would not at all recommend this to anyone for any cooking. I never leave poor reviews like this, ever. I just reviewed the manufacturers description and realized that the plate that I thought was to be used to catch crumbs at the bottom is actually a baking plate. I think this is such a shallow indent for the juices of anything that it would be even more unsafe than the wire rack that falls out at you if pulled out more than 50% of the total distance of the rack. (sad thing is that I got this for a Christmas present from the family so I use it anyway, otherwise I would have returned it or thrown it away. It seems sturdily built outside, which is bad for me, because I was hoping it would break and I could get a different unit.
