I believe any toaster oven does a poor job on toast. Because the heating
elements are too far away from the bread. This means it takes longer to
brown the bread, which allows the bread to dry out too much.

I use my toaster to make toast and my convection microwave oven to make 1
dish meals, bake a potato or keep things warm. Since I live alone the
convection oven gets used frequently...so as to not heat up the kitchen
with the stove's oven.

In my opinion toaster ovens have their place and are very useful but not
for making toast.
