Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Proctor Silex 31114 Extra-Large Toaster Oven/Broiler, White
Customer Review: good 'n simple, even toaster, like 31115
Summary: 5 Stars
The 31114 is same or nearly same as proctor silex 31115 which I couldn't get anywhere. I wanted a simple toaster oven to toast or bake evenly, not a big bulky fancy convection oven - for that amount of counter space I might as well use the regular oven. Amazon listed the 31115 in stock with two vendors but neither turned out to be able to get it. Searched online, Toaster-oven.net had this and another few models, at reasonable cost. Ticking isn't that loud as one 31115 review complained - distinct enough in kitchen, but don't hear it much from another room. Toasts breads or english muffin or bakes my chicken wings evenly. Compared to my ancient, finally-expired toaster-oven (costs too much to get parts & have fun repairing, if could find the right parts without hassle), this new one differs in that it has a single fat element on top and on bottom, not two - which somehow do a pretty even job, unlike most toaster ovens today, or pop-up toasters. That's why I got it. Unlike other gizmos, I don't need bells & whistles and want my toaster to be mechanically simple, so if it breaks it's cheap to either fix or replace, and it's less likely to break because it's simple (we hope). Has a bit deeper baking pan than the old toaster oven too (good - & BTW, alum foil works fine for lining it to save gunkyness, as long as you wrap it neatly around the edges, not leaving big floppy edges hanging down or sticking up). For this review, I checked to see if 4 slices of bread do fit into it, and they do, though I don't need that. Keep an eye on your toast in the beginning to learn where on the dial your toast darkness preference is reached, and RTFM (read the simple instructions when you get it) which say to set the upper dial on the toast icon, then turn the lower dial past the 5 minute mark to initialize it, and then backwards to your preferred toast setting. Bell rings when time's up. Door has a very nice downward-curving handle that stayed cool, made it handy to open the door. Doesn't take up a lot of counterspace - it's a traditional style and simple toaster oven, which is exactly what I wanted but harder to find nowadays. I like the slight curve towards the top which makes the top slightly narrower than the bottom - makes it feel more compact than it already is, without affecting internal capacity. The company makes similar black models, too, if you don't like white.
Addendum 1 year later: Still working great!
