There are entire cookbooks dedicated to preparing meals using only a toaster oven, but most of us only ever use them for reheating pizza. So it seems like kind of a waste to have one sitting on the kitchen counter all the time. Unless it’s the Toastation by Hamilton Beach, which adds traditional toaster functionality to a compact toaster oven, creating an appliance that’s the best of both worlds.
For $US40 you get two appliances with a footprint barely larger than a hefty four-slice toaster. With the flick of a switch, the Toastation goes from a traditional top-loading toaster capable of browning a couple pieces of bread (or both sides of a bagel), to a compact toaster oven ready to reheat pizza minus all the sogginess.
If you’re living in a small apartment with an impossibly tiny kitchen, this has the potential to change your life — or at least your toast. [Hamilton Beach via 7Gadgets]
