Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am reading toaster oven reviews because this B&D TR0620 is the oven I want to replace. It still works, but life is too short to endure the aggravation factors.
As the previous reviewer reported accurately, the oven stays on after I believe I have turned it off (and after I have tried my best to turn it off and failed). This is unacceptable. So for safety reasons, I try to remember to keep the oven unplugged at all times when I am not actually using it. But here is the "Gotcha!:" The ON count-down knob with the timer works -- LOUD tick-tick-tick-tick -- without power! More times than I want to admit, I have inserted bread, twisted the ON knob to "Medium," and turned my attention to other parts of the meal while the toaster oven tick-tick-ticks away and then, DING! turns itself off. But when I finish the other preparations and return to the toaster oven, I find plain untoasted bread because all the knobs and noises worked even though the oven was not plugged in. That was a funny practical joke maybe once. If the oven were not too dangerous to leave plugged in when not in use, the trick timer ON knob would not be such an issue.
The other constant annoyance on my oven is the inability to close the oven door with one hand after removing the toast or food tray with the other hand. The door gets jammed in the wide open position and I have to put the food down somewhere else and come back with pot holders to fool around with the hot oven, jiggling the door hinges into position to work with the retractable oven rack.
The toast is unevenly browned, and brown only on one side.
All I want is a little countertop device that will toast odd sizes of bread evenly and quickly, and also allow me to melt cheese on open sandwiches. I realize I am describing the original Black and Decker toaster oven from the 1970's, and I wish I could find one.
