Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of DeLonghi XR640 Retro Toaster OvenCustomer Review: "Wrecked 'em?......Hell, almost killed 'em!" Summary: 2 Stars
I have had my DeLonghi Retro Toaster Oven for about a year. I was attracted to it's distinctive appearance. I read reviews that warned of knob malfunction, but ignored them. After almost burning my house down a few days ago however, I wish I would have listened. While cleaning the countertop around the thing, I must have bumped the dial. ( A very light touch only.) It turned on, but I did not notice. A while later, I was realxing and watching TV when a horrible noxious-- and rapidly escalating stench enveloped me. I had the habit of storing the little grabbing device for the rack inside the thing. It has a rubber handle. It chars rather thoroughly. There was no actual fire, only dense nauseating fumes. After I aired out my house, I actually tested the dial again, and sure enough it malfunctioned in various ways--including failing to turn off. I would advise against this product, based on the fact that it could possibly kill you.
Description of DeLonghi XR640 Retro Toaster OvenThis toaster oven's innovative design makes it stand out in a crowd. But appliances need to be more than just good-looking, performance is key. This large capacity oven is adjustable, can bake, broil, toast, and keep warm, is easy to clean, and has important safety features. Capable of toasting up to six slices of bread at once as well as baking and broiling, this countertop toaster oven comes in handy for everything from breakfast to a midnight snack. It provides 1,500 watts of power for baking a cake in the 9-1/4-by-10-3/4-inch pan that's included, broiling a salmon steak on the baking pan's aluminum broil insert, or toasting a cheese sandwich on the oven's slide-out chrome rack. Both the baking pan and the oven's interior are coated in hard enamel that distributes heat evenly and cleans easily. One nice touch is a stay-cool rubber-handle tool that grips the rack so it can be removed without burning your fingers. For the oven, a thermostat adjusts the temperature from the Keep Warm setting to 450 degrees F, and the toast function has a three-setting browning control with audible tone and automatic shutoff when toasting is complete. Housed in chrome with black and silver accents, the toaster oven contributes the retro styling cool of a '58 Chevy's bright bumper to the kitchen. It measures 16-1/2 inches wide (including stay-cool handles on the bottom), 8-3/4 inches high, and 14 inches deep (including a cord wrap in the rear and chrome handle for the glass door). The oven carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
