Cuisinart TOA-70
« on: Fri, 26 January 2024, 07:33:05 »


After Black Friday, Tp4 was like, wth, why is everyone talking about some stupid toaster oven. Well, it IS just a toaster oven, but the design simplicity makes it great. The layout and functions are fantastic. It's just the right size for quick bake/ air frying/ bread portions. Heat circulation fan works well, it seems like you can get it out the back (not sure yet) for cleaning.

It's got 4 heating elements on top, 2 on bottom. It only lights up 4 at a time, so depending on the function selected, you can pick either 2 top 2 bottom, or 4 top (airfry/broil).

Comes with basket, pan, slide, and grill plate. Overall, it works really well, hype is real. This thing gives you that manual transmission feel, as a toaster oven.

Obviously don't pay $230 for it, goes on sale for as low as $100 on Blackfriday. Used/like new for $130-150.

The cheaper dial version is much better than digital controls (TOA-95). It's also easier to repair when the time comes.

Costco has a double door one that's similar for $130, but it has digital controls.

I have many pieces of Cuisinart kitchen gear and have generally been quite satisfied with them.

For about a year I have been using an air fryer and I love it, but unfortunately 120V appliances are inherently less energy-efficient than 240V.
The trade-off is probably worth it, in comparison to a full-size standard oven, since the volume that must be heated up is so much smaller with less "wasted space" ....
"Cohen has been described as a “fixer,” a guy who gets things done, who cleans up messes and who calms the waters in a crisis. But mostly, it seems that Cohen was a lackey.
He wasn’t someone telling Trump hard truths to make sure that he was protected. Cohen was the guy who simply wanted to make sure that Trump was placated. He wanted the boss to be happy. Cohen wasn’t using his clout or connections to turn the tide in Trump’s favor.
He was just another person whose ambitions and self-worth had become intertwined with Trump, someone who as federal investigators closed in on him, as he lied and then lied some more, he had to be reminded by his wife, his daughter and his son that Trump was neither his salvation, nor was he someone worth saving." 2024-05-14 comment

Air fryer owners are at least 50% better hughmahns than non-owners.
