DeLonghi XR640 - The Chrome-plated, 1950's style DeLonghi XR640 Retro Toaster Oven seems like a blast from the past but is heading toward making your future as tasty as ever. Bake, broil, toast and keep-warm settings, plus adjustable temperature control, make this the ideal multifunction oven for your busy life Monitor it all with the interior light Includes broil tray, Durastone bake pan, and tray grip with rubber handle Size - 13.46H x 16.65W x 8.82D; 14.33 pounds 120Volts, 1500 WattsCapable 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
