Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Hamilton Beach 2-in-1 Countertop Oven and 2-Slice Toaster, Stainless Steel (31156)PLEASE check the back bottom heat element first thing, so if it's not working you can go through Amazon for free. Unlike other folks, I tested this before using it and returned through amazon return label = no fee shipping return. But I only knew to test due to other reviews on this model: 31156. I would heartedly like to thank the other reviewers for the heads up. Silly me! Yes, you were right. HB should fix this continuing problem before selling more units. I'm still shopping and looking at the this HB 22708 / 22703 unit reviews, I'm being more cautious about buying anything from HB. Compared to the raving number of stars and reviews, HB production seems to to have hit a poop hitch. Looking at all the other manufacturers? SAME! Black and Decker - reading that the products wear out in a few months. Oster, the doors shatter. CuisineArt?, folks are filing complaints with the BBB and Consumer Reports for the fire hazard. Ahhhhh! What's a buyer to do? Back to a conventional oven I thinks.
