Hamilton Beach Sure CrispTM Toaster Oven {review}

  

We recently completed a kitchen renovation, and are planning on changing out our appliances slowly to match.  Most of ours had been white, and we are now wanting to go with stainless steel.  The dishwasher was the first one to replace, as it broke before we started the reno.  Just after the kitchen was complete, I was contacted to see if I was interested in trying out the new Hamilton Beach Sure CrispTM Toaster Oven .  Our old one still worked, but I decided that it was the perfect opportunity to change it out, and was able to gift it to someone on my local buy nothing site (I try and keep things out of the landfills when possible)

The Sure CrispTM Toaster Oven will toast, bake, broil and air fry! I haven't used any type of fryer before, so I was excited to give it a try. I decided to make french fries in it for the kids to have with lunch.  I put them in the fry basket, placed it on the pan and chose the correct setting.  They came out hot and crispy. Much better than baking them in the oven, and so much healthier than a traditional fryer that uses oil.

My 10 year old really likes being able to make his own food, but when he is making a serving for just himself, I don't want him using the oven for such small portions. This is the perfect size for him, and really easy for him to use.

We have used it for toasting bread and bagels. It took me a couple times to get the timing right for the perfect crispness that we like. It is faster at toasting than our old one was. I think I have it figured out now though.
