Krups FBC213 Digital Convection Toaster Oven

Rating

I purchased this oven about 2.5 years ago. Although the oven cooks and toasts perfectly it is far from prefect. After about 18 months the toast button started to act up. It would take a couple of trys to get it to cycle on. It became progressivly worse until the toast feature was not working at all. Very disappointing for a piece of equipment that costs so much. All of the other functions worked properly but we use the unit mainly for toast.

This is an excellent toaster oven. Definitely worth the cost. Cleanup is so easy it's phenomenal. I hate to cook, but anything and everything so far that I've baked, toasted or broiled has turned out tender and delicious - even my leftovers are tasting better. Leaves my microwave in the dust!

I gave this as I a gift and my daughter loves it, especially the quick cooking time. Can't speak to durability and workmanship as I just purchased it.

This is a great little toaster/oven. Great versatile oven that keeps your kitchen cool and savesyou from heating up the big oven in hot weather like Florida. Toasts evenly and automaticallyshuts off, no burnt toast. The timer also works well with the oven in shutting it off when thingsare done if you forget. The convection oven heats food evenly with its fan to keep from gettinghot spots in the oven. The defrost I have not tested thouroughly but it is better to use this oventhan the microwave to radiate your food and loose nutrients and possibly get any leakage fromthe microwave exposure to your body. Now I can throw away my big oven and toaster. Thisoven is great for a house hold of two in making dinners. The finish on the trays, grate and ovenare coated for easy soap and water clean up. The crumb tray at the bottom makes this ovenunlike a toaster easy to clean out crumbs from toast by just removing the bottom crumb trayand cleaning with soap and water as well. No messy toaster full of crumbs. The appearance of the black model is very elegant. Oven is very well made and designed. This is one of the best toolsI have ever purchased and well worth the money twice over. I love making home-cooked whole food meals every night in this versatile high tech oven.The broiler is great for fish or garlic bread. Oven is great for potatoes. Drip tray keeps things from running all over with the juices. The only down side is that the fan on the convection oven is a bitnoisy and rattles the trays if you set them on top the oven while cooking.I have make great lobster tails in this oven also with the bake/broil dual method. Enjoy.

I bought this for my mother and I used it when I went to visit her. It was even better than I had anticipated. The look is modern, yet not too fussy or complicated for someone not of the digital age to understand. It cooks beautifully and was shipped promptly. I am very pleased, especially after seeing the same model at a much higher in price in other on- line stores.
