Customer Reviews

Still the best!!
I love my KitchenAid toaster oven. Before I purchased, I read all the reviews. It wasn't rated very highly by many. I believe the reason for this is that it works more like an oven than a toaster. It does require a few minutes of preheating for perfect results.

Have you ever had old fashioned oven toast? It's different from toast from a toaster. Much better. This is the toast produced with this oven. I've had it for a couple of months, and I get perfect toast every time.

This goes also for everything else I've cooked or heated in this oven.

I read in one review that it had only 1 rack position. Take my word: It has 4.

I read in another that the exterior was faulty. Mine is perfect.

I read in another that the oven didn't go off automatically. It does.

I read in another that the rack slid out too fast and fell on the opened door. OOPS!!

I thought this was "operator error", and laughed the first time it happened. Just be aware, and use a hot pad to slide the rack out. If you use a fork, it WILL slide out and land on the opened door!! I think the teflon interior contributes to this issue.

I took a chance because it's KitchenAid. I'm glad I did!! Another quality product!!

This is the classiest little toaster oven I've every had! The exterior is really stainless steel on the front, and the body is beautifully finished in red.

I'll deal with the sliding rack!

DISAPPOINTING
I was so excited to get this product. I have several great KitchenAid appliances and didn't even think to check the reviews before ordering - big mistake. It burned the toast on one side and left the other virtually uncooked - no matter what setting was used. The elements did not heat evenly, it was angled forward (which looks weird) - we used a level to verify it was uneven, and I wasn't impressed with the baking cycles. It ticks the whole time it's cooking which was not desired. When I called KitchenAid and said I'd like to return this product, they didn't even ask why. Very disappointing.

No more burned toasted cheese!
Besides the great looking color, it is designed with an unexpected safety feature; all modes (bake, toast, broil, warm) run on a 30 minute timer so that you cannot easily burn anything... like your house.
