I love the compact size of this toaster oven. It is small enough for the counter, yet strong on performance. Even Heating I love the fact that this toaster oven cooks the food evenly whether you are using the rotissierre to roast a chicken or other meats. I like the fact that it melts cheese evenly without burning. Safety I feel very safe using this toaster oven. Of course with any other product that has coils that heat to cook food, you have to pay attention to what you are doing. Oven mitts should be worn at all times to prevent burns. Ease of Cleaning This toaster oven is very easy to clean. That is, if you wipe up your spills as soon as they occur. Without cleaning it up as soon as it happens creates a build up. This becomes baked on and can be bothersome to try and remove. Durability This toaster oven gets used on a daily basis by at least one of us in the household. We can count on it to cook the food fast without turning on the oven for small meals. Design I love the fact that this toaster oven is compact enough to fit on the counter. It has lots on interior space which even enables me to roast a small chicken.

This toaster oven is great as a substitute for a conventional oven, toaster or for a microwave without the need to waste as much electricity or risk your food being spongy. It's easy to use the settings between broiling and heating are clear, it has a built in timer and it's wonderfully spacious. I've used it to reheat restaurant food bought for the holidays, the entire container contents fit in the toaster comfortably. I toasts evenly and quickly. The settings correspond to recipe directions and food instructions so there's no need to adjust for a toaster oven that heats faster or slower. It's also long lasting and cleans easy. Even Heating Perfectly even whether it's toast or baked goods. Safety No problem. Ease of Cleaning Easy to Clean Durability Takes a beating. Design Simple and efficient design.

This toaster over is a bit pricey, but the quality is excellent and it is very easy to use for various purposes. Even Heating This seems to cook breads and toast evenly and I am pleased with it. However, it might be slightly slower than other toasters because of it's size. Safety The outside of this toaster gets very hot when in use. Please keep kids, pets and burnable things far away from it. I think this advice applies to almost any toaster or kitchen appliance. Ease of Cleaning I clean this about 2 or 3 times a month to avoid crumb buildup which might cause problems. It is not too difficult to remove crumbs and other bits that fall to the floor of the toaster, but the glass is not so easy to clean. Durability I have used this for several years and experienced no major problems with the unit. Design I like the high roof on this toaster and ample depth of the unit. It is good for reheating items that don't fit easily in other smaller toaster overs. I also like the analog dials on this unit and the simplicity of the front panel.

I received this oven as a wedding gift three years ago and I have not stopped using it since day one. It has helped me to enjoy cooking and make healthy meals for my family. This oven has is easy to clean with a removable tray and with an oven rack and baking pan that are easy to clean by placing them in the dishwasher. The temperature settings are very accurate and rarely over cook the food. It toast, bakes and roast all types very well. The best part is the keep warm option; never had it burned any of my food. There is only one default that I have had is that the grooves within the oven were the racks go have bent a bit and now the rack doesn't hold that well while I pull it out. But I assume this is only in mines, because my parent's is working fine. On the plus side it's a large and deep oven and fits even in the most compact spots. It heats very quickly and holds it temperature during the whole cooking process. It is a hefty price but you are getting a very good product with a great amount of quality. Safety Edges of glass door can get a bit hot.

We got the convection oven as a wedding gift and there is not a day that goes by that it is not used. It fist perfectly on the counter and is easy to use. The kids love it to cook personal pizzas and corndogs! The cook time is fast and even. I love the increase cooking time as I can make two meals at one time. I will have the kids dinner in the main over and our meat or whatever in the small one. It works great on chicken, steaks, seafood. I have re-heated rolls.  The only thing I haven't done in there is bake. It's rather small and can only take a small pans. It does come with a broiler pan that works great ! I love how fast it heats up in a manner of minutes it is blazing and ready to go. You do have to watch it or it will burn your food with quickness and can leave the meat dry if it's left in there too long. It excellent for garlic bread , toast, grilled cheese and just about anything else that needs toasting. It's not the easiest to clean. I like how the tray comes out, but the glass is a pain to keep clean. Overall I am very pleased and will be purchasing another one once this one dies. Con:  the outside gets hot, so make sure it is not touching anything.

I love this oven. It cooks all kinds off food that i would have never thought to cook in this oven. You can defrost, slow bake, bake, fan bake, broil, toast and rotisorie cook.  This oven and three knobs. Temp,function,cook/timer knob. The timer is only for toasting. Turn the other direction when you want the oven to stay on and cook. One downside to this oven-no timer for baking, you will have to set an additional timer. The oven comes with 2 racks, roasting pan, handle for removing the racks and the rotisorie spit.  I have used the rotisorie for hot dogs and they turned out great. I have baked full size pizzas in this oven as well as frozen meals and cookies. Another downside to this oven is- it gets very hot on thye glass and the outside metal. This oven is very easy to use, anyone can use this. I got a very good deal on this oven. This is normaly 99.00 but I paid 18.95 new due to a credit. I had never had this kind of oven until now and I love it.

I love my Delonghi Convection Oven. I received it as an engagement present three years ago, and have used it everyday since. It's perfect for quick toasting jobs, yet is large enough to handle dinners-for-two. The inside capacity is great for baking chicken, heating up leftovers or making toast. It's time-saving, practical and energy efficient. When I cook a spaghetti dinner stove top, I just place some garlic bread in the convection oven to brown up the toast and dinner is complete altogether and on time. On warm summer nights when it's too hot to slave over the stove, the oven is perfect to heat up a frozen pizza or appetizers so your whole kitchen doesn't get hot. I have not used all the functions on my oven yet (I have yet to experiment with the convection part of the oven) but the bake, broil and keep warm functions serve my kitchen needs perfectly. I don't know if I would have initially bought this item for myself, but I am so grateful to have received it as a gift - I don't know what I would do without it.

We got this Toaster oven as a wedding gift & we love it! It's a bit large in size compared to other toaster ovens, but this one fits nicely on our counter & doesn't seem to bulky. I love how much stuff I can toast at once, and it's even big enough for personal size pizzas (some brands). It's the perfect size, where if there's something too small to turn the oven on for, it usually fits in the toaster over to bake.  I've made scones & banana bread with it as well. We have not use the Rottiserier (sp?) function yet, but we selected this one for that reason...we're just too lazy right now, it's much more convenient to just buy a chicken at the store.  It is fairly easy to clean. Especially for someone who is lazy & messy like me, the crumb tray comes out easily & you can wipe down any mess you make inside. The one downside is that it took a while to figure out how to properly use it as a toaster. There are 3 different knobs on it & each one has to be set to a certain selection in order for it to toast properly. I'm sure there are alot of other functions with this toaster that my husband and I haven't explored yet.

I bought this about two months ago and I haven't used the microwave ever since, except to make my self some popcorn. My diet has tremendously improved in the past two months and with in those two months I only used the DeLonghi RO2058 Toaster Oven in my meal plan. Before I owned this toaster oven I have been eating chemicaly modified food and freezer burned dinners that were made in the microwave. Micowaves are radio active, that means that when ever you eat anything from a microwave you are eating radiation which could ruin your insides and give you all sorts of health problems. Some experts say that a microwave could increase the possibilities of all types of cancers. Now I can make my own food in a five star restaurant style taste. I've been looking up good and healthy recipes online and found some like how make, roatissery chicken, trout, even bake cookies in a toaster oven. This tool has all types of other kitchen devices placed all into one space conservative machine. One thing that makes this toaster oven better than others that you see is that it has allot of room inside. You can fit bigger foods and in larger quantities. The one let down about this product is that it takes a longer time to heat up foods compared to an average conventional oven or to a microwave. But i guess that i's like a new pair of shoes you just got to break them in so that you can start running. The toaster oven just needs to get preheated more often so that it will start hotter the next time and keep to it's temperature. I think a closer analogy to that would be like a new car and you have to heat it up first before you drive it in order for th engine not to get hypothermia. I also find the name of the product sort of odd, but "don't judge a book by it's cover". The price is perfect for this toaster oven. It's even too low price for what it is really worth. I would recommend this toaster oven to the world. It takes less power to use because the space is small enough and big enough which makes it the perfect size to use. it fits into any home even a trailer home or an RV home. With this product in your kitchen you can now toss out all the other kitchen appliances. Or just sell them at a garage sale and make some extra money.  This toaster oven is a great gift for any home owner. if you want to give a gift to someone that they will really find useful and use it all the time then the DeLonghi RO2058 Toaster Oven is that special and useful gift. In the past I received all sorts of kitchen appliances but I have never found any use for them. Some were brand name like the GT express 101. Which in the ads they said that the GT express 101 will be the only kitchen appliance I would ever need to use. But then they came out with the "new" and "improved version of the GT express called "GT Ready Set Go". The only reason why they made the new one was because the sales went down super fast and allot of them ended up in thrift stores, goodwills, and value villages. Also all they changed was that you can pick the mold of the tray on the bottom of the GT. And they put a timer on it and painted it red.  I have not used the GT for over one year, and it just takes up space. When I used it I could not fit any big portion meals. I could not have even fit a burrito in side the thing. It wouldn't shut. But I have used this toaster everyday for at least two times a day. Mainly for breakfast and dinner. And I can fit about 20 of those burritos at one time. But then my stomach would hurt and I wont be making polite sounds and smells. You might have heard the saying that you'll never need another thing in the kitchen after buying a kitchen product. But this time it's true. This Toaster Oven is the best in it's class. It's the best of all toaster ovens and toaster ovens are the best of all kitchen appliances. So it's a double win! Another let down is that there aren't as many recipe guides on produce that you buy. But if you look up online like for example go on to google.com and type in to the search bar " Recipes made in the toaster oven". You'll find many different websites that can help you make meals that you love. You can try to make something that you've never thought you'd make.  It's so easy to make food on it even kids can do it. I had my cousin and her kids come over and they made chocolate chip cookies using the toaster oven. But the only problems were that they had to extend the cooking time by ten minuets compared to the conventional oven baking time. Also it took a longer time period because they had resize the batches because the pan was too small for their cookies. But overall they had fun and the cookies turned out awesome and they were so addicting that they were gone faster than they were made. I think that there should be a new law stating that every home should have a toaster oven because they are the best and most conservative kitchen appliance. There is a lower possibility of home fires. It could be possible that no fire has ever been started by a toaster oven. But I may be wrong on that, don't quote me on it. but do quote me on this " The DeLonghi RO2058 is a kitchen super hero!"

I had a Krups toaster before this one until it broke, and it was much better in everyway than this! The only thing this toaster has going for it is its size--it's spacious. Other than that, it is pure crap. Here's why: 1.Very easy to burn your friggin hand! The top red-hot orange burners are very low and protrude from the top--I reached in to grab my toast that was in the back, and I almost touched the top of my hand to the 1000f+ burner on accident. Very unsafe if you have kids that aren't careful like I was. 2. The grill (for lack of better word) is very flimsy and if you push or pull on it with minimal effort--say if something sticks to it and you want to remove it--the whole darn thing will drop out of its hangers and fall to the bottom of the toaster. 3. The bottom burners are unevenly spaced apparently, or too few of them (there's only 2, most toasters have 4) because if you put a toast in the center of this thing, the bottoms don't get as toasted as the top! 4. The glass door has a bad handle that is hard to grab if your fingers are greasy. Thanks, buy something better, I'm returning this tommorow...
