 Great oven for about 7 months.... June 20, 2008
My2Cents (San Carlos, CA USA)
We bought this oven at Costco after researching many toaster/convection ovens and liking the good reviews we had read. It was bought to replace its Cuisinart counterpart that started falling apart and never quite fit the 5 pound chickens I like to roast. Right out of the box, the convection fan never came on. I wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong so I called the manufacturer. They immediately sent out a replacement at no cost and never even asked me to return the old one. I gave the old one away to someone who didn't care about the convection feature. The replacement worked great until the lower heating elements stopped working 7 months later. Here are the pros and cons during our experience:
PROS
1. Fast, even roasting of 5-6 pound chickens, which fit very easily in the oven.
2. Frozen waffles came out great.
3. Meatloaves and roasted vegetables cook quickly and evenly.
4. Easy to clean and we especially like the crumb tray that pulls out from the front.
5. Superfast, no-hassle exchange by manufacturer right after purchase. We haven't called them about the latest problem because we've decided to get something else, so we don't know if they would be equally responsive 7 months later.
6. Great price for the size and features.
CONS
1. Poor durability, at least with the ones we got.
2. Toast takes forever and the countdown feature of the toasting timer doesn't kick in until the final minute of toasting.
3. Toast usually comes out pretty dry all the way through, even when we use the supposed optimal rack position per the instructions.
4. No indication when oven is properly pre-heated, you just have to guess more or less.
5. Very large and takes up a lot of space on the counter (but hey, we did want something big enough to hold a fairly large chicken.
Bottom line, since we rarely make toast, and mainly bought it for it's roasting and convection features, we were very happy with it until the bottom heating elements died. But we don't plan to buy another one because we just don't trust their durability. If it had least at least one year I might've given it 3 stars, but since it barely lasted more than 6 months, I couldn't give it more than 2 stars.

After doing much research, we purchased this toaster oven at Walmart. We've spent the entire weekend cooking and baking with it and have been surprised and thrilled by it. It does not heat up your house, it heats up faster than the huge kitchen oven therefore using less electricity, and it cooks faster and at a lower temp than usually called for.
Important things to keep in mind if you are considering buying a toaster oven: 1) If you buy one, READ THE DIRECTIONS entirely - if you don't, do not complain because it didn't cook something perfectly. 2) After reading the directions, try out all the functions so you understand how to use them. And in my opinion these directions are just fine, btw. 3) For the first few times you use the oven, keep an eye on things! It's only common sense to do this so you get a feel for how the appliance operates differently from your old kitchen oven that you grew up with! and lastly 4) I highly recommend getting a toaster oven with the convection feature. It makes the heat cook more evenly, and though I have a microwave oven with a convection element that I've never used, I have used the one in my toaster oven and it works great.
I think that you get what you pay for; that's why we did not purchase the cheapest one at the store - they feel flimsy and have no insulation - so no wonder there are so many bad reviews. This one is SOLID and even at 450 degrees I could touch the outside - but to be safe I do pull mine 6" away from the wall when using it (like it says in THE DIRECTIONS)! I also liked the digital display - especially after reading all the reviews where the knobs broke on other brands!!!
I may never use my big kitchen oven again - except maybe for a big Thanksgiving turkey!
Went through two of these before I gave up... June 11, 2008

I purchased our first Oster Convection Toaster at Costco as a Christmas gift to myself. I was very happy with its performance, using it to toast or bake a few times a week. However, in May, only five months after purchasing it, I started to smell a terrible burning electrical smell when I turned it on. It got worse, and I kept thinking I should return it. After a week of the burning smell, it just stopped working completely. No display, no nothing. So, figuring it was just a fluke, I returned it to Costco and got another, identical one. I had that one two weeks when all of the sudden, an E-2 message showed up on the display. It wouldn't let me do anything - every time I tried to press any button, it just displayed E-2. I looked in the manual for some kind of a code, but couldn't find anything, so I returned it again to Costco. I figure I've learned my lesson and won't buy a third.

I am an 87-year old widower who tries to do all things for myself. The user manual that came with the toaster leaves a tremendous lot to be desired. There are things that come with the oven that are not even pictured in the book . . how am I to be expected to use this? The real payoff came when I called Oster and got some "snip" who essentially let me know that what I got is what I get. The Oster people can take a lesson from the makers of the George Forman grill who are smart enough to give even the finest details, recipes, and hints.
Slow, beeping toaster March 7, 2008

I've had this toaster for a while now, and dislike it. While it is very flexible, I need my toaster to be a good toaster first and foremost. And by that benchmark, it falls short. It's slow!
The other thing I dislike is that the toaster beeps loudly when you press most of the buttons on the control panel. This sqawk is quite annoying and when you're staggering in half-asleep in the morning to get your toast going, it's harsh.
