Big boss is a round glass cooker that uses helogen light and air to cook and you don't have to use any oil

be really careful. we bought one and it got so hot that is burned the counter top. The older ones were better insulated so be sure to check reviews on each brand. I went back to using the oven or I "roast" my veggies in my electric skillet

I cook for one. My toaster oven broils, toasts, bakes, keeps warm and grills. I grill outside so don't use that.
Love it. I think mine is considered a 6 slice and I wouldn't get a smaller one.
Lots of things reheat better in a toaster oven than in the microwave.
My knob broke and I use a pliers to turn it off and on until I get a new one.
It does take longer to make toast but worth the wait.

I asked for one for Christmas one year and my husband found one that needs its own portable counter space and I was rather intimidated at first. But it comes in so handy when I need a second oven. But works so well for smaller portions too. They are great. But don't get something too small.

I love my toaster oven. I use it at least once a day. Plus mine has a rotisserie that I use alot as well. best investment I ever made. Saves on the electric and living in AZ you need to save on that any way you can.

When I had kids at home I always had one. I made sure it was big enough for them to cook thier frozen pizzas in. I loved the fact that in order for it to work they had to set the timer and if they forgot about it it would just shut off on its own. When my daughter was growing up she'd always forget she had something cooking. I made her use a timer with an alarm and the toaster oven, or toaster or microwave was the only thing I'd allow her to use if I wasnt' home. Thank goodness she does better now.
For me, I don't have one. I use the microwave alot and if it ever goes out I'll probably get a convection/microwave to have the best of both worlds. If I want something browned and the grill pan wont do it I heat up my gas oven.
