We have a giant toaster oven that takes up a lot of space. I want to replace it with the toaster I bought when I moved into my first apartment!

We have a toaster oven that we use all the time. Before marrying DH I only ever used a toaster, but now I appreciate the toaster oven's versatility!

it's technically a convection oven, but it's small and sits on the counter like a toaster oven. it is my absolute favorite appliance ever. since it's just the two of us i do almost all of my toasting, baking, and broiling in it (if i'm making a large lasagna or casserole i'll use the real oven). it doesn't need to preheat, doesn't make the kitchen ridiculously hot, and its easy to check the food since it's counter height. i couldn't live without it! you'll never buy a boring old toaster again!
we use this one:

I used to put everything in the toaster oven. Over time it got nasty and was taking up too much counter space so I chucked it.
I have a small toaster that i bring out when I need to toast bread. love how clean my counter looks!

we have a toaster. i hate it! the bread always gets stuck and the little pieces always catch on fire. i used to have a toaster oven when i was single, and i used it for everything, but we really don't have room for that big of an appliance on our counter now. so i deal (while huffing about it a lot).

Toaster oven. When we got married, we registered for a convection oven that has many functions. I LOVE it. Yes, it's big but we use it a lot and sits on our kitchen cart

Toaster oven. I love using it for baking/cooking small dishes so that the apartment doesn't get so hot with the big oven on. I've never owned a toaster!

neither! i've never actually had a toaster, and we got rid of our toaster oven when we moved to nyc and had less countertop space. we both totally regret it! for example, heating up leftover pizza in the microwave sucks

@nana87: what we do with leftover pizza is microwave for a little bit and then continue to heat it up on a pan over the stove. It makes the crust crispy again and delicious!

We have a toaster oven that we use for everything. Ours is pretty big, too, but so versatile. DH has even made chicken breasts and so forth for dinner with it- it heats the apartment much less than using a full oven and ours cooks it just as well.

just a toaster (we just got a brand new one!). i wouldn't mind a toaster oven though, as it would be much more convenient to make just a few cookies at a time...

We had a toaster oven, but it broke. Now I use a toaster. I prefer a toaster oven though.

Toaster oven. I love it cause instead of heating up the whole oven, I can cook things in it instead.

I have the perfect little nook on my counter that fits the toaster oven perfectly. I use this thing probably more than any other item in my kitchen. I love not having to heat up the entire oven. We rarely make toast so there's no point in having a toaster as well.

We have both. Our toaster own is very small so it doesn't take up much space. I resisted getting one for a while but I find it to be so useful that I am so glad I finally caved.

We have a toaster oven. It does take up a lot of space but we use it quite often.
