The only way four slices of bread can be toasted at once in this miniature device is if they are velcro-ed together at the edges.This is about half the size of the Krups it replaces. The Krups is a *real* four-slice toaster that you can bake a small cake in. What I received today is more like an Easy-Bake Oven in comparison.To be completely honest and fair to this device: I HAVE NOT YET USED IT. I do not doubt the reviews and expect it will cook very well, but the photos make it look much larger than it is. The shot of the pizza in the oven borders on deceptive advertising. I have never seen a pizza that small in any store. Even the smallest "party" pizzas are too large for this thing.It may cook just great, but it was supposed to replace a much larger "four-slice" toaster oven, as we have no full-sized oven in this house, and our beloved Krups died after 14 years of heavy use. [Foreshadowing: This will not adequately replace our old four-slide toaster oven.]This toaster was purchased to get us by until my wife can find another job. I am sure it will do that just fine. However, meals will take MUCH LONGER TO COOK seeing as this has half the capacity normally attributed to a *real* "four-slice" toaster oven. I am guessing that it legally carries this description solely because, with some force, you *can* shove four slices in there, but all will touch each other, and will likely touch the sides of the unit, too, possibly causing the crust to burn.Cooking the chicken breasts we bought for tonight will be — in reality — cooking *two* separate meals, likely making our two-person supper last all night. I am displeased, but we really need this thing — so I guess we're stuck.CAVEAT EMPTOR: If you are in need of a rack that can fit four "adult-sized" slices of bread (or have a need to cook anything with that large of a footprint) DO NOT GET THIS; I don't care how good the reviews are.The feeling of ridiculousness that washed over me as I pulled this oven out of the box was on par with when the Stonehenge model came down on the stage in "This Is Spinal Tap" —"I think that the problem *may* have been, that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being *crushed* by a dwarf."

I like its small size; it fits well on my small countertop. It works great (though I've only been using it for a couple of weeks). Only issues are, as some others have noted already, the black printed numbers on the temperature knob are hard to read (print is small, black on the silver metal frame), and the whole oven outsides get very hot when cooking, so be careful not to touch it or leave anything sitting on top of it that could burn.

I purchased this Hamilton Beach toaster oven as a 'returned item' from Amazon. There are no signs the unit was ever used and, the discounted price is really appreciated! I turned it on to check all functions and found all to be in working order. The box had been opened but all pieces were still in the plastic wrap they came in. I have purchased other 'returned' items from Amazon and never been dissatisfied. Highly recommended!!
