Bought instead of regular toaster after we had a house fire.  Takes up a lot more room, but good for heating up other things.  Dials are hard to read for my husband.  Top gets very hot while on.  Works good as a toaster but bottom side not as much.  I liked having a toaster but they never lasted too long.  I guess I would get a toaster/oven again as it is one appliance rather than two.
