Best Toaster Ovens

Toaster ovens might be the most overlooked essential for people’s kitchens.

“But it’s just a toaster!” you think. Alas, a great toaster oven is so much more. It’s the difference between a perfectly crisp slice of morning toast and a charred pile of ash, the difference between reheating your leftover pizza to perfection and gross, rubbery cheese. When putting together your dream kitchen, don’t forget about the toaster oven (it’s the best), especially when there are so many great options to fit any budget.

BLACK+DECKER 4-Slice Toaster Oven

$29.92

For under $30, the BLACK+DECKER 4-Slice Toaster Oven provides all the basics you’ll ever need from your toaster. As the name suggests, the oven is meant to evenly toast up to four slices of bread at once. The inside is also big enough to fit a nine-inch slice of pizza, and a removable tray at the bottom makes cleaning crumbs hassle-free.

Nostalgia Retro 3-in-1 Family Size Breakfast Station

$72.72

Easily the most unique option for a toaster oven, the Nostalgia Retro Breakfast Station comes equipped with a coffee maker and griddle too. It’s an awesome option for a compact kitchen, allowing you to handle all your breakfast needs without taking up too much space. The station comes in red as well, but the aqua color scheme recalls a trendy 50s diner aesthetic.

A fully enhanced version of the smaller 4-Slice option, the 8-Slice size features an extra-wide interior large enough to handle 9″x13″ oven pans and full 12″ pizzas. Moreover, the oven has four distinct heat settings, allowing you to perfectly bake, broil, toast, or warm up your food.

Bialetti 6-Slice Convection Toaster Oven

Bialetti’s convection toaster oven is made from stainless steel, making it a sleek, durable option fitting for any modern kitchen.
