best toaster oven

Most countertop toaster ovens are sized to fit 9″–12″ pizzas; some larger or air-fryer-style ovens advertise capacity for up to a 13″ pizza. Capacity varies by model, so check the oven’s internal dimensions when shopping.

Wattage typically ranges from about 1,100 watts for compact models up to around 1,800 watts for higher-powered countertop ovens.

Toaster ovens use a mix of controls: manual dials or knobs, digital displays with buttons, and touchscreens (some with haptic feedback). You’ll find both basic manual controls and more advanced digital or touchscreen interfaces.

Toast capacity depends on size: models commonly handle about two slices up to roughly six slices of bread or toast at a time.

Common functions include toast, bake (often with convection), broil (and air broil), roast, reheat, keep-warm, and air fry. Some models also include presets and specialty modes such as dehydrate, slow cook, and proofing.

Many models include removable crumb trays and some have dishwasher-safe parts for easier cleaning. Other ovens recommend spot-cleaning or wiping external surfaces—check the manufacturer instructions for specifics.

Common warranty terms listed are 1-year, 2-year and 3-year limited warranties. Coverage details vary by brand and model, so review the warranty documents for specifics.
