What the testers found

America's Test Kitchen's Best Small Toaster Oven, rated Highly Recommended, a step above the Pro: "well designed and a solid performer" with "the same heating technology as the bigger Breville." It still toasts six slices, though toast "was a tad uneven to start" and improved on later batches. The trade-off is size: "it can't roast a whole chicken." Same 1-year warranty; ATK didn't test long-term durability.
