Update on Toaster Oven
#11
I have only ever used a toaster oven for curing polymer clay!
But, with summer fast approaching, I might buy one to keep the house from heating up, so thanks for the idea.
I love my wood pellet smoker and Weber kettle outside, but I could set up a toaster oven out there, too. We like roasted vegetables a lot more than steamed, boiled, baked or fried, so I've been using my oven a LOT during the winter.

Nice! It looks like a great T/O. My mother gave me her old one but it takes sooooo long to heat up it frustrates me so i really don't use it. I looked at the description from your link and I think I would use this one.
Question. How long does it take to make toast? Say, comparable to a regular toaster?

DH got sick of the toaster a few years ago, and stated he was going to buy a toaster oven, I thought he was nuts spending that much money instead of a new cheaper toaster. Wow, was I wrong, it is just DH and I now, and wow do I love that toaster oven, I never dreamed I would like it so much. As like many of you, I am making smaller meals, so the toaster oven is perfect, I even bought a few smaller pans, ie: 8x8" and a 6x9". As stated previously, perfect for warming up pizza too. The oven we have has a bagel setting for toasting, it is my favorite setting for toast, browns the top, but the bottom stays softer. i love that I don't have to heat up the entire oven for a small casserole, and no preheating. I am a true believer now.

Well- going by that logic you wouldn’t have an iron either because they have started a house fire or two also!!
