I am looking for a small toaster oven under $100.00 that is easy to keep clean. Anyone have a good one?

@m0rgan We've been very satisfied with Cuisinart toaster ovens. Most of them are above $100 but you might find one on sale.

We find that they last a long time for an electric applicance.

I'm pretty sure that Black and Deckers are reasonable. For me, I've bought that brand and other pricier models and the first thing to go ( for me) is the toaster function. I now have a Kitchenaid for about 3 years and the toaster function went. I've decided until the bake function goes, I'll have a regular toaster sitting next to it.

Let me share with you my mistake ....

I've always had a toaster oven, and thought they were all pretty much the same.

The last one I'd had for years, and when it died I bought a Black & Decker. I thought it's a good name, on sale, and what else do I need to know?

Well, what I didn't realize is that the Settings need to be VERY readable.

My previous toaster oven had settings that lit up, making Bake, Toast, or whatever very easy to read.

The B&D oven has very small print on the Settings and no light on the panel. Apparently, people with even excellent eyesight had trouble! (I later read reviews.)

That means if I want to set it for anything, I need to pull out my lighted magnifying glass to read and set the thing.

To be clear, it's definitely functional, but that's not enough anymore.

You can be sure that when this one dies, I will never make that mistake again. My Settings panel will be well-lit and have a readable font.

That's my two cents on the topic.

@Tinkrbl44 It's why I always read the reviews & view "real customer" YouTube reviews PRIOR to purchase. Never hurts to see & watch the product in action.

@Mz iMac,

I usually do, too, but this was a minor purchase of a top brand.

When I needed something that day, a two-year warranty seemed like enough of a safety net.

Live and learn, lol.

BREVILLE has the best toaster ovens, but i dont think any of them are under $100. hooked on them now.

prior to that we loved black and decker toaster ovens.

@sunshine45 - I agree about Breville toaster ovens. I had one for several years and when it died, I bought another the next day. They are pricey - mine was $250 at Macy's.
