About Panasonic FlashXpress Compact Toaster Oven
Overall Feedback:
95% positive
82% found maintenance easy
The toaster-oven is easy to clean as the rack comes off at the front.
88% were satisfied with the toasting performance, but 12% believed it could be better
I use the toaster to roast veggies and reheat, and the toast always comes out perfectly.
The toaster oven bakes cookies unevenly.
After using the toast setting, the bread is only toasted on the top side which is disappointing.
86% highlighed the timer and controls ; however, 14% weren't satisfied
Baking a potato is complicated as the manual heating setting can only be set for a maximum of 25 minutes.
The controls of the toaster-oven are odd and may frustrate some people.
I have to set the timer twice for the baked potatoes as it only goes up to 25 minutes. It's inconvenient for me, but it's probably a safety feature.
84% appreciated the heating elements, although 16% found flaws
The heating elements of the toaster-oven provide direct and very hot heat, resulting in a crispy bottom crust and bubbling top, just like a pizza oven.
I suggest being careful about spills on the heating element and wrapping anything that might bubble over or spatter in aluminum foil.
The toaster-oven does not have a 'broil' or 'top brown' setting. To toast a bagel, a burger bun or an english muffin on the top side only, I have to use the provided tray to block the heat from the bottom element. I am not sure how safe it is as the tray gets really hot in just a few minutes.
86% liked the temperature control, yet 14% faced difficulties
I have experienced that the light button activates one of the top heating elements to light up the oven interior and it is really bright. It can't be turned off manually and will shut off after a few minutes depending on what type of food you are cooking. This review expresses my negative feedback with respect to the temperature control feature of the toaster-oven.
