ZERO STARS!
Awful, awful product!! Purchased in October, 2010. From the date of purchase, this toaster never worked quite right. I should have returned it immediately!
To get lightly toasted bread, I have to turn the timer dial clockwise then turn it counterclockwise to less than 1/4" of the off position. It's almost impossible to do this consistently, especially since the dial doesn't even have a line that points to the light/dark picture of the toast. It toasts unevenly every time. The top of the bread will be toasted while the bottom is not. If you want the whole slice of bread toasted (top and bottom), one side will be burned. Get used to only one side being toasted.
Then, 7 months after purchase, the unit completely and dangerously malfunctioned. While attempting to bake an item, the unit 'snapped, crackled, and popped' and the glass door shattered into the unit itself and onto the countertop. This was not after 30 minutes of bake time - no, this happened right after...
toaster oven review insanity
you can go crazy reading toaster oven reviews. Even Brevilles have their critics. I ended up just going to a big box store and buying a B&D TO1412B, which looks about the same as the TO1420B. Inexpensive, simple to use, does ok. Yeah the toast might come out a little uneven sometimes but its ok -- just as long as i don't have to read any more reviews.
EXPLOSIVE!!! AVOID!
Do NOT get this product. Similar to other reviews, the glass door EXPLODED as we were trying to make toast. I knew it was a cruddy toaster oven to begin with, but the fact it exploded, sending chards of glass all over the kitchen is NOT okay. We've only had this toaster oven for about 2 weeks, used less than 10 times. Thank god no one in my family was standing near to the toaster when this happened. Someone could have been seriously injured or lost an eye.
AVOID!!
