Farberware FSTO400 4-Slice Toaster Oven, White

 (5 customer reviews)

First, let me say that this is a reasonably priced toaster over and it is absolutely adorable. The color is great and it adds a lot of personality to my blah kitchen. However it isn't as versatile as other toaster ovens I've owned in the past. When I ordered this product, there wasn't a detailed decription of the features so I wasn't aware that there isn't a temperature selection dial. This means that the only control you have is time. So it's great for toasting but doesn't broil or allow you to choose other temperatures to heat other foods. So it's more of a toaster oven style toaster than a true toaster oven in my opinion. Very cute though.

This toaster oven is a good oven for the right price. It's black and it works just fine. It does have an annoying bell that bings when the timer is up, but that is not too bad. It's only dial is a timer, that lets you heat for a set amount of time. There is no temperature gauge or anything else. So it's not high on features, but it is low on price. :)

I bought this toaster oven because I wanted RED, and not a big one. This is a pretty red that matches my Fiesta dinnerware and the accents in my kitchen. It is clean and simple in appearance, without a lot of "bells & whistles". It has one timer (dial) to turn it on and start the timer. You need to watch the toast (or item) so you get it to the color you want for the first few times. Then you will know where to set the timer. It's way simple, not like a microwave or vcr. I haven't had it long enuf' to say how it will last, but Farberware has been around for a long time, so I'm confidant.
