Customer Reviews of DeLonghi DO400 1400-Watt Digital Control 4-Slice Toaster Oven
Customer Rating: Summary: Small, versatile, and nicely designed Comment: I am really happy with this toaster oven. Pros: - Toasts, bakes and broils evenly - Warms up quickly - Includes broiler pan - Nice looking - Doesn't take up a lot of space - Oven rack has two positions (high or low) - Roomy inside (4 slices of pizza fit well) - It has a clock - Tray can sit on top of oven when you're not using it Cons: - Must toast at lowest level (T1) which is not the default (T4 is, and I've never used it) - Can't set machine defaults - Beeping noise oven makes when pressing buttons is unnecessary and kind of loud; no option to turn sound off Customer Rating: Summary: Smalll footpring, accurate little oven Comment: This oven looks good, bakes accurately, takes up a small space on the counter. Easy to use electronic controls and timer. Just don't expect to put a 12" pizza in it. 4 bagel halves or 4 biscuits is about the limit. Customer Rating: Summary: Only Problems! Comment: Initially I was a little disappointed in the small size. I agree that it was my fault for not researching things better. The 2nd issue is that this oven burns bread and bagels even on the lowest setting. The final and worst problem is that it started failing after less than 2 months while displaying "err". This happens repeatedly even after unplugging and reconnecting the oven. It works for a little while and then fails again. Seems like a lemon to me! Customer Rating: Summary: Toaster Oven Comment: We purchased this unit to replace a DeLonghi toaster oven we had for years. We used that unit hard as both a toaster and a broiler/oven. When it came time to replace it, we knew it would be with another DeLonghi. We are pleased with the performance of this unit and recommend it to those who want a toaster oven that has a solid manufacturer's reputation behind it. For the price, we don't think you could find a better performing product. We've used most of its features and have no complaints. As with any product, pay attention to how you use it and follow the instructions. We find that the unit actually toasts a lot quicker than our old model. We like that the broiler has a built-in timer which automatically shuts off after 15 minutes, more than adequate for our purposes. The only downside is that this model didn't come with the tool to pull out the rack like our old unit, so it's a little more awkward, especially when using the broiler. Customer Rating: Summary: Could be much better Comment: Small size and some other nice features, but some flaws. Toast is much darker on top than on bottom. Door will not open fully, which makes it difficult to pull out shelf (especially when hot!). Glass door gets very hot - not a good choice if there are children in the house.

Drop-down crumb tray for easy cleanup Bake pan and broil rack included Unit measures 11-1/4 by 16 by 8 inches Delonghi 1-year limited warranty Choosing Appliance -> Convection Ovens Convection ovens allow you to bake more foods (cookies, muffins, etc.) at once with even browning, but without the need to shift and rotate pans. A convection oven is the same as a conventional oven except a fan is installed in the back interior of the oven. The fan is used to blow and force the heat to circulate in the oven and around the food, thus eliminating the need to rotate and shift pans. In reality, though, even with the most expensive convection ovens, you will still need to rotate your foods, because there will always exist still hot spots in the cavity, because the cavity is small. Don't compare home convection ovens with most commercial convection ovens used by bakers and small food manufacturers, because their commercial ovens are much larger than home ovens and commercial ovens don't have any hot spots and therefore, there's no need to shift and rotate pans. Choosing Appliance -> Plastic wrap An absolute must with a million and a half uses. But do not buy just any plastic wrap. Go to a restaurant supply store and buy a large roll of restaurant plastic wrap. It sticks much better than the common grocery store plastic wrap and is much cheaper per foot.

The food waste is ground down into fine particles and is then flushed away through the normal waste pipe system. This process can also aid recycling as the waste is transformed into a soil conditioner once at the treatment plant. |
