" ... Easily clean with the pull out tray at the bottom. ... Reason for 4 starts out of 5 is because since it’s so roomy inside it bulges our in the back that I didn’t realize while ordering so I needed to place it in the corner of the kitchen countertop in a diagonal form. ... "

" ... Like Least: Control knobs are hard to read because pointer is not highlighted. ... Only a raised bump on the knob. ... "

" ... Great toaster except it started making a fan noise that makes it annoying to use unless the convection feature is turned off. ... "
" ... The convection fan rattles loudly. ... "
" ... Even though you hear the ding that tells you that it's off, it's possible that you turned it just a tad beyond the off position, in which case, the oven REMAINS ON - INDEFINITELY!!!!!!!!!! ... "
" ... The timer's tick-a-tick-a-tick-a-tick-a-tick-a sound is loud enough to wake everyone up. ... No way to get rid of the sound. ... "
