Breville - the Compact Smart Oven Toaster/Pizza Oven - Brushed Stainless Steel

Pros: awesome. Heats quick, works quick. Cooks things perfectly, nice crisp on the outside but soft on the inside-it’s insane. It also looks aesthetic and is the perfect size! It toasts bread and other things exceptionally as well. I can put a small Pyrex baking dish in it too and it bakes just as good as an oven! Cons: you have to flip the bread in order for it to toast perfectly. The trays are heavy. Doesn’t come with a pizza stone. Overall, great toaster oven. Better than the one we had before but we have only had it for a month or so.

I am very happy with the Breville smart toaster oven BOV650XL. Exellent quality. It is very accurate, bakes even and the alerts are quiet. Love everything about it!

I am really happy with this new toaster oven. I read Consumer Reports which rated it highly. Decided in the middle sized version of the oven and am glad that I picked it. It was only slightly larger than the mini version - so from a counter space point of view its size wasn't going to make that much of a different. What the larger size did give me was enough room to hold some of my medium sized baking pans. I baked a casserole and a frittata and both came out perfectly - baked evenly and better than my oven. I baked a frozen store pizza on the bake setting and it came out perfectly. I didn't use the pizza setting because that has a defrost step and the frozen pizza instructions did not require that. I have toasted a bunch of toast and it does brown a little bit more on the top than on the bottom. But it is so much better than my old toaster oven. I found the preset selections for darkness that I am happy with. Using the same setting, I am getting very consistent results. I am very happy with this purchase and have already recommended it to a family member and a friend.

This works excellent for toast, as a oven for baking potatoes and for broiler. Excellent size for 1 or 2 people. The price is high but the quality so far seems well worth the price.

I just bought this toaster oven so can not speak to durability. However this is very easy to operate and clean with built in crumb tray. It looks great and is not large (perfect for small to medium kitchens). The toast function works great with toast, bagels, waffles, muffins, and even reheating pizza quickly. And unlike my ovens, this unit does not increase the room temperature. Like other high wattage toaster ovens, the exterior including the door (not handle) gets very hot. Also note, you need to use potholders to pull out the rack. Overall Its a great little oven.

I was so done with my last toaster oven and as I started out my adventure into getting a new one I decided for my needs I wanted something that can do some oven work without having to get a convection oven. So I did a lot of research and came across this one and it had 5 star review and it was pricey for a 'toaster oven' but I had a gift card and got it with a good discount. WOW! WOW! That's all I have to say. This thing cooks everything, perfectly and I am a trained chef that cooked with one of those wood fire ovens that was built in Italy and shipped on a boat and would get up to 700 degrees to make the perfect pizza's and anything else. Well this thing practically replaces my oven. I bake breads from scratch, cookies, steaks, make simple toast and frozen pizza comes out better than the gas oven I have plus it doesn't get hot like a big oven but does big oven work for 1-2 people. So if you're looking for a replacement for a regular oven this is it until you have more than 2 people to bake/broil for this will do everything and simple to clean on top of it all. This is worth the full price too. My mom came over and loved it so much she bought one the day after she got back home. We still talk about that oven and how it changed out lives LOL

We've used our Breville compact smart oven/toaster for nearly 3 months. Our overall impression is very good and we would recommend this product. We like several features including the controls. For example, it's simple to switch among the unit's many modes such as broiling, toasting, and oven. Furthermore, a second dial facilitates quick alteration of darkness/lightness while toasting as well as the number of slices of toast. Altering this latter control changes the time and can turn off and on the heating elements for more balanced toasting. A visible countdown timer shows in the display during toasting allowing you to coordinate hot toast with hot fried or scrambled eggs. The upper surfaces of toast is cooked uniformly; while toasting on undersides is less uniform due to influences from the wire shelf. The wire shelf has three positions and glides smoothly. One thing we don't like is that the wire shelf does not pull out automatically when the door is opened (our previous unit did so). We keep a fork next to the unit to use to pull the wire shelf out so extract toast -- reaching into the oven without pulling out the shelf is dangerous given the limited space and ease of touching a hot surfaces. We do not like that the wire shelf lacks a stop -- that is, it is easy to pull the shelf out too far and end up with your toast on the floor (I've done it). The included cooking pan and tray are high quality. We've been pleased with these accessories while broiling. We've been pleased with our purchase and would recommend this product.

This is the best toaster oven I have ever owned. Everything comes out perfect and I prefer it over the regular oven! I use for ziti, muffins, pizza and just about anything else. I needed a few pans and ceramic casserole dishes to fit but it was well worth it. Also, easy to clean with pullout drip and crumb pan.
