Do you have a good reason to choose a toaster oven over the range oven.
I have self cleaning ovens and believe that they use less power than a
TO. They certainly add less heat to the room than a TO. Being self
cleaning, they are far easier to clean. I retired our toaster oven when
we got two wall ovens. The counter space was more valuable than the
"convenience".
