You can easily put it away when unneeded
I chose this particular toaster oven because of the buttons. I've seen so many that have the dials and I wasn't a fan of them. If you know how a toaster oven works, this is one of them.
PRO:
- Small, light, portable. It's very light, the weight on this thing is astoundingly low. You can easily put it away when unneeded.
-Heating. Obviously it will heat up fast as toaster ovens do. I like to put a sandwich in the middle and turn it on. The default is like 4 minutes which is way too much. 2 at most from completely off will melt cheese and toast bread.
CON:
-Awkward. Since it's so small and light, it's often a weird fumbling to take food out. Some sort of 'tray lock' would be great so I can just slide out my sandwich instead holding the (hot) tray and plate and sandwich and navigating the hot door/sides. Phew
-Too small. Now that I think about it.. It's kinda too small. The main issue would be the door doesn't fully open. It's like an 85° opening. A flat 90° would be good and more excellent. But the fact that I almost burn myself on the glass door while removing something is dangerous. (-1 Star for all my food fumbling)
-Hot spots. I made a pizza with the pizza settings. One side of it was more cooked than the other (aka. the back was more burnt than the front). The instructions don't say turning the food midway through cooking is recommended.
That's really all to say. I really do like it.
