This is the biggest, nicest looking toaster oven I've ever seen let alone purchased. This will be able to bake or toast anything you put in it. With size comes a few additional considerations however: Do I really have the space for an additional OVEN in my kitchen? Am I going to use this primarily for a few pieces of toast or to reheat/cook entire meals? If you have a small kitchen or even a medium sized kitchen I would recommend a smaller appliance, even if you live by a "bigger is always better" mantra. If you want a toaster or toaster oven to make a bagel or toast occasionally- I would absolutely get something smaller, or a traditional toaster. It takes a little while to heat up because of its size, and I imagine it requires a bit more energy to warm up enough to toast a piece of bread. So maybe if you're trying to be green, or are always in a hurry- go smaller. Overall though, I am super happy with this appliance. Product design is great. Functionality is great.
