May 21,2024

We asked expert cooks and recipe developers about the very best toaster ovens, including Breville Smart Oven, Panasonic FlashXpress Toaster Oven, Breville Mini Smart Oven, Hamilton Beach 31142 Toaster Oven, and Balmuda The Toaster Oven..
“The stainless steel look of this toaster is very aesthetically pleasing and doesn’t look or feel cheap. Another neat function of this toaster is that it actually has a musical tone that plays when the toast is done instead of just listening for the ejection of the toast. Let’s be honest, the real reason you bought this toaster: to toast bread. And it does just that. Four slots are perfect since we have two children, and the slots are split. There are some toasters that only give you the option to toast all four slots at the same time, and this wastes energy. The ‘darkness’ knob works as expected and so does the bagel function. I know this may seem like common knowledge, but people have asked me, ‘What does the bagel button do?’ It simply just toasts the inside of the bagel and not the outside. I love this feature because the inside is crunchy and ready for cream cheese, and the outside is warm and chewy!”
