We gave up on cheap toaster ovens since they toasted unevenly and the temperature settings were not reliable. We use a Breville Smart Oven, it will do a 13" pizza and about anything else we want. But, it does put out heat and ours cost $250.

I know it's off topic but, welcome back Mike.

Another vote for the Breville SmartOven 800…we don't have a regular oven and use it for everything from baking to broiling (when I'm too lazy to fire up the grill for the burning meat) to toasting. The convection microwave is used almost solely as a microwave.

And # 48792 of things I didn't know.... that convention and toaster ovens heat up the RV! They certainly don't heat up my S&B!

Breville BOV800XL Smart Toaster Oven is the best product known to me so far.. It has auto-eject wire rack, removable crumb tray, pizza pan, baking pan, and broil rack included.. It is very easy to clean and the controls are very intuitive.

I vote for this cheapo B&D $25 toaster oven. www.walmart.com/ip/Applica-BD-4-Slice-Toaster-Oven/29045558

It is less than 1/2 the weight of the more expensive Brevile, at only 4 lbs. It has a 2 year warranty. It has a stainless finish so it looks nice and is easy to clean. It has "even bake" technology for more even toasting. There's no expensive circuit board or digital display to go out and spend money repairing - it's bullet proof. And after a few years when it's all grungy and nasty, with little bits of carbonized cheese stuck in the corners and crevices where you can't clean, you won't feel bad about throwing it in the trash and buying a new one.

My last cheap toaster oven I had for a few years caught on fire, because I forgot some garlic toast inside and stupidly didn't set the timer (hey, it can happen to anyone). I just opened up the kitchen door and threw it outside till it went out. I didn't even bother trying to clean it as it was cheap and had served me well for a number of years, so I just replaced it with one of these. If I'd have paid $250 for one I'd have had to spend a $30 fire extinguisher just putting it out - and then there would be the mess to clean up - yuck!

Just a different perspective, but sometimes the simple, durable, inexpensive choice beats the fancy, full-featured expensive one. Plus the $225 you save will buy a lot food to cook in it (or beer to drink with your toasty pizza, garlic bread, etc. - and you've got another 5 lbs of carrying capacity to carry that extra six pack with you too.) ;) IMHO.
