(More customer reviews)It is getting harder to find a good small toaster oven at almost any price. We had a GE toaster oven that was purchased in the late 1970's. It fit on a 10' deep shelf and took very little space. The rack pulled out when the door was opened had a shiny chrome interior which made great toast and it lasted almost 30 years. When it finally died, we looked for a replacement. The only one that fit in the space we wanted looked almost the same as our old GE. It was a Black and Decker unit and it only lasted a year before the top element burnt out. It also was built very cheaply.
We shopped around and read some good reviews on the Maxi Matic. Price was good and it actually didn't have a cheap feel to it like the B&D. It makes great toast. Heats up fast and is easy to clean. It has quartz elements that seem pretty sturdy. That is the good part. The trade off is that the toasting is regulated by a timer, not a sensor. There isn't a temperature control for baking. The heating elements do not turn off when the door is opened. This is a very basic unit. The switch on top is for off- top element-bottom element or both elements(toast) The bottom is just a timer that ticks very loudly and is maxed at 15 minutes and has markings for light, medium and dark toast. (Use light or it comes out burnt)
If you need a toaster oven in a small space this is a decent unit. What's sad is that all the toaster ovens in this category are crappy compared to what was available 20 years ago. Price wasn't an issue. They are all crappy
