Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This toaster had so many negative reviews I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy one or not. Either it arrived broken, broke down after using it, caught on fire, glass door shattered, burned babies, set the cat's tail on fire, etc. I thought man how could they release a fire hazard like this? After all it's a Black & Decker right? So I did a couple of weeks of thorough research and discovered that everyone seemed to have similar complaints regardless of brand, so I said oh screw it, just buy it and find out for yourself. I'm glad I did. I've owned this toaster oven for 5 months now. It arrived in perfect condition with everything intact. I use it about one to two times a week just for normal stuff like reheating pizza, making morning bagels, etc and it's performed flawlessly. This is a great and compact little toaster, and for the price it's awesome! ***Feb 2019 UPDATE. The little toaster is still going strong! Zero issues. Great buy!***
