Good Toaster
 
Review Date: September 13, 2009
Reviewer: P. Newton, PAYSON, AZ USA
I hesitated buying this toaster after reading the other review of it, but since I liked the style better than any other toaster in its price range, decided to give it a try hoping their toaster was a fluke. And it seems to have been. I really like this toaster. After following the directions to burn off the smell and dust by running it once on high, I ran a few pieces of bread through it for a test. The first one came out much too dark on the medium setting, but after that each slice was toasted perfectly.

I like the way it holds the bread in the center of the slot. It's of adequate size for larger pieces and/or thicker pieces. And I like the other features such as for frozen bread or for keeping it warm. It also has a slide out crumb tray. If I were to fault it at all, it would be for the short power cord. Don't have a ruler with me but it appears to be about two feet long.It works for me, but might not for you if your outlet is very far from the toaster.
Poor quality

Reviewer: Eolande,
I purchased this toaster a couple of days ago and plan to return it. Using the bagel setting on 2 1/2, I ended up with a rock hard, partly burnt bagel. Tried using the regular toast setting and ended up with toast that was almost burnt on the bottom half of both slices while normally toasted on the top. Would recommend not purchasing this toaster.
Nice Style, very poor quality

Went through 2 of these toasters within 8 months. They look good but seem to be poorly designed with respect to the mechanics of handling the bread and triggering the toast. Will not buy Oster toasters ever again.
Junk, do not buy, broke after 1 and 1 half years!

Reviewer: flattenedfrog,
Even after about one year, the toast would occasionally not stay down, but now, after about 18 months, the toaster will not work. Called Sunbeam, who owns Oster, and they said sorry, nothing we can do, you are outside the warranty.

So, for these reasons, I cannot recommend this product, or other products by Oster.

Perfect rice, but you have to have patience.
 
Review Date: December 19, 2009
Reviewer: fishgeek, Atlanta GA
I've had this rice cooker for over a year now. Tiger has a great reputation, and I wanted a machine that would be accurate and keep rice warm well. This machine uses fuzzy logic to make great rice, but....I'm not sure why this machine takes a loooong time to cook rice. I don't know if it's because the heater is slow in getting the water boiling or what, but I always have to make sure I get the rice cooking first before I do any of the cooking. It's mildly annoying. It shouldn't take 45 mins to cook 3 cups of rice. Anyway, I'm still giving it 4 stars because it does make delicious rice and the machine is well made. One other note: the readout/clock is powered by a battery which you apparently cannot change out yourself. I thought this was weird, but I did know this ahead of time and still bought the machine. Not sure what I'm going to do when the battery dies.
