    There are toaster oven that do a good job on toast, and then there are other toaster oven that do pretty good as a small oven replacement.

    I've never had one that did a great job at both...

        Funny you ask this, George. Our oven stopped working 2 days ago (just the oven, the stovetop is fine), so I went out and picked up this bad boy for 60 bucks. (Link below) If you want one that can fit a full pizza, there's a model that is for $120. Anyway, it works well, preheats faster than a normal oven, and so far has made tater tots, cinnamon rolls, and a lasagna...all turned out great. I use the "Turbo" (convection) mode, too.

        Although this doesn't answer your key question of making TOAST. Maybe I'll try that tomorrow morning. Rye bread, obv.

            I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Breville toaster. And Jolly is right. Had several, none of them do both well.

              @Mik yeah, but that's just a fancy toaster, isn't it?

              I wanna make pizza, etc.

                Use. Your. Oven.

                That;s what it's for.

                And it is an excellent toaster. Seriously. You can make four regular slices at a time of, if you are like us, very wide sourdough bread.

                  I never have the need to toast more than 4 slices of bread. Thickness is not a consideration.

                  Just thinking it might be more efficient to use something smaller.

                    We've had a Black & Decker, used mostly for toast, and bagels, for probably 20+ years.

                    So of course it's not exactly like a current model.

                    Something like this for $32

                          I have a regular four slice toaster. Don't remember the brand.

                          I also have this:

                            @George-K I have been using the ERO-2008SC since mid-2018. Check it out, I think it can do most of the things you say you want your toaster oven to do. Good luck.

                                  Get a nice toaster for toast 😋.

                                    I think I also want a nice toaster

                                    Maybe I should open a new bank account or something. Didn’t they always give toasters at banks?

                                      Toast fail. I'm sure it could work if I tried and tuned the process, but in general it took longer than a normal toaster and dried the (rye) bread out. Ugh. Trying to salvage it with Kerrygold butter and some jelly.

                                      If you want good toast, get... a toaster. 🙂

                                          Toast fail. I'm sure it could work if I tried and tuned the process, but in general it took longer than a normal toaster and dried the (rye) bread out. Ugh. Trying to salvage it with Kerrygold butter and some jelly.

                                          If you want good toast, get... a toaster. 🙂

                                          See? SEE?! 😋
