Review on 🍞 Hamilton Beach 31413 Stainless Steel Countertop Toaster Oven with Sure Crisp Technology, Bake Pan, 6-Slice by Redfish Rosenhoover

This is a large capacity toaster with convection capability. Outer dimensions 17x10x15cm. Can fit 11" x 12" x 3" or 12" pizza pans. The tray holds 6 standard size toast slices. The front panel has 3 control knobs for temperature (reheat to 450F plus toast/roast), mode (bake/toast/grill/roast) and time (toast/10-30 minutes/remain). Accessories include a grillage, frying basket and baking tray. You can use the rack inside the toaster at one of 3 different heights. The power cord is 24 inches long and terminates in a two-pronged North American plug. The box also includes an instruction manual. I find this toaster can make great toast if you choose the optimal settings for your bread. It's also great for baking small meals on a hot day without heating up the kitchen. I have baked fish and pork chops in this oven with great success and also air fried some chicken thighs. The fryer is a convection oven only, but works well, especially with the fry basket. The oven is fairly easy to clean - just unplug, remove the wire basket and you're ready to wipe down. The timer button is a little clunky, especially at first, but it prevents you from forgetting to turn off the oven when you're done cooking. That is, unless you choose a time over 30 minutes. The oven will ring and turn off when the time is up. As with other toasters, the front and top of this oven gets hot when it's on. So be careful when you put it down. I had some issues with the length of the cord. My electrical plug is to the left of the stove and 14 inches above it. Try as I might, the cord didn't reach that high, at least where it should on the counter. So I had to look for a short extension cord, even for such a short distance. All in all, this oven is very versatile, quite compact and great for making toast as well as baking a variety of foods.
