 DeLonghi large Toaster/Oven a hit Jan 14, 2008
By W. Chan
"miboo"
This oven is definitely considered large, even if it doesn't appear to at first. I have another DeLonghi oven that is going strong for over 12 years and it is barely 11" wide and just 9" deep. The 6-slice Oven reviewed here easily handles a 13" round pizza, with a special round protrusion in the rear to handle the round pizza shape. By comparison, my old oven is good only for 4 slices of bread.
The 3 dials of the 6-slice oven is the way to go, offering far more control via option to have upper coil only, lower only, and both. I had very good luck with DeLonghi kitchen products.

 NEW DElonghi ovens Cheap! Dec 19, 2004
By Cat
I have owned many Delonghi Toaster ovens oven years.Delonghi ovens are generally made well & durable for years. Delonghi ovens are typically more expensive than other manufacturer but worth the money. This model EO1200B is from Delonghi newest line of toaster oven. It looks & is made very cheap. I used my mother's rmodel EO1200B oven and was very disappointed. Interior oven walls are made of aluminum not durastone enamel like other delonghi ovens. Aluminum inside oven impossible to clean. The wire rack can only be used one way. Other delonghi oven racks have 2 positions. Inside oven there are 2 positions/slots to put rack but bottom rack slot is too low to coils & will burn food. Pizza will fit in oven only if pizza is made "perfectly" to align with shape of back wall. Do not recommend this oven. Buy an older Delonghi ovens which are made much better. I think Delonghi cut corners on their NEW LINE of toaster ovens to compete with other manufactures prices!!

Can't say I agree with the others... ours works great, but no secret midnight toast. Jan 27, 2007
By B. T. Denyer

My biggest complaint about most of the ovens I have looked at in the stores was that the door feels loose and janky. Let's see, the thing I use the most SHOULDN'T be the cheapest-feeling thing on it, but they usually were.
The door on the DeLongi is not the most noticeable thing - meaning it just blends in with the rest of the construction as far as quality and usefulness. Meaning: NO janky garbage here.
The knobs are good, still way better than the ones I felt on the new O***r ovens, which were horrible.
The heating element is nicely placed in that i found it heated the food evenly. A mini pizza came out with an even browning on both sides.
When using the supplied trays you may find that the heat doesn't quite travel around the tray to the top like it should. We end up using the rack most of time, anyway.
The top of the unit gets very warm, but doesn't feel as though it would burn you if you touched it quickly. (If you pass out and fall on top of this thing you might experience a different result.) The sides remain quite cool to the touch. The back, however, is just metal and gets just as hot as the inside of the oven. I recommend you keep an eye on just how far back you shove this thing to your wall. Anything that touches the back of the unit MAY get hot or become melted (i.e. wiring, counter back splash, Grandma's hand-knitted doilies...)
The bell is kind of annoying. In this day and age, I do not own anything that has a bell and striker. When the timer reaches zero or when you turn it off the oven rings the bell once. I found it a bit 'rotary dial' sounding (yes, you're old if you remember those phones.) So, when you are up at midnight sneaking in a piece of toast you will surely wake up the others with the tell-tale sound of that stupid bell as you turn off the oven. Then you will have to either explain or share. I'm opening it up and removing it - I like my secret midnight toast.
All being said, I HIGHLY recommend this oven.

Worked for a year Nov 14, 2008
By Amazon user
This toaster oven started with great promise. It toasted evenly and its large capacity was appreciated. I especially like the fact that it has cool sides, which seems to be hard to find these days. However I noticed a couple issues. The painted numbers on the temperature dial rubbed off once when my vegetable oil coated fingers adjusted the temperature. This was unexpected. Occasionally the timer would hang. Then this week, about a year after purchasing, it stopped working and I had to haul out my backup 4 slice toaster. I will go back to Black & Decker from now on. I got 7 years out of my last one.

 Timer malfunction Jun 27, 2008
By Barbara D. Roby
This is a nice, roomy, handsome toaster oven, but as in everything, handsome is as handsome does. I have had this toaster oven for only a couple of years, and it wasn't until I burned the toast that I realized that the timer bell was ringing but the timer didn't stop, moved on toward the "ON" slot, and the elements heated up again. I decided it was possible to remove the toast when the bell rang, shut the door, and not notice that the elements were heating up again. A DEFINITE FIRE HAZARD. I knew I could unplug the toaster immediately after every use, but I was afraid I or house guests might forget to take that precautionary, essential step. This total failure came as a big disappointment, because this malfunction came on so soon. I wonder if a digital timer would be more reliable. Or maybe it's time to return to the time-honored pop-up!
