Better efficiency but more importantly it heats almost instantly. Thing is like magic. No preheating for 5+ mins.
Plus having a second oven is fucking awesome. I’m out there on thanksgiving with an oven full of turkey, baking dinner rolls on the side like an absolute gangster.
Our oven literally broke (screw you fridgidaire btw) and we made thanksgiving dinner in the air fryer/ toaster oven. Even the turkey! Came out great!
The oven that comes with your stove is huge and it takes forever to preheat. I remember mine used to take like 20 minutes to preheat. For a lot of things that doubles the cooking time.
A toaster oven has way less space to heat, together with the fast convection makes it heat up almost instantly and also evenly. It’s just such a huge quality of life improvement.
I don’t know how to tell you this, but…
Thanksgiving was last week.
It sucks how immediately after Thanksgiving it’s illegal to cook turkey or bake dinner rolls. It’s particularly annoying that it’s like, a global rule even though Thanksgiving is a US thing.
Yeah, and? I’ll take any oven I can get! I’ve got a toaster oven too! I’ve seen people with two ovens stacked on top of each other like a washer/dryer combo! Now that’s living the dream
I have the stacked ovens! When we moved in, I thought we’d never have a use for it, but it’s surprising how often it comes in handy. It’s especially helpful around the holidays when there are lots of people prepping stuff in the kitchen at once.
