Those of you that have a bungalow/craftsman-style house, would you be willing to make a rough drawing of your floor plan and post it?

One person who posted some before and after pictures had her washer and dryer in her kitchen with a front load washer with doors that close over front of them ... I'd *really* like to see that floor plan. I'm interested in *everyone's* floor plan. I've got an idea in my head of what I want, but I'm having an awful time figuring out how to get it on paper.

Irene, your image icon doesn't work because you entered "[image]http://images.ofoto.com/photos432/4/38/67/4/92/0/92046738405_0_SM.jpg[image]" in the box where you put the URL of the image. In this particular case, you shouldn't use "[image]" -- just change it to http://images.ofoto.com/photos432/4/38/ ... 5_0_SM.jpg and it should work.

About floor plans, this thread was also started in another forum, and got more responses there. You can read it here and see my floor plan drawing if you like. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Here's a very rough floor plan, it lists outside dimensions of the house, but inside is NOT accurate at all. I've never seen a floorplan quite like ours:

IC Craftsman floorplan

I've been thinking about our floor plan quite a bit lately, we are considering buying another old house and moving, it would mean trading a place that is nearly finished after 18 years of work and probably starting over in restoration. It also means trading a big house full of little rooms (on first floor especially) for a bigger house with bigger, but fewer rooms. It has some really intriguing features and some real drawbacks. If the price were a bargain (we have the highest median home price in the state) it would be a much easier decision...

I am told it is called a 4 square. the onlything I dont like is this weird hallway to the kitchen, and the bathroom is so small, but I love the livingroom and bedrooms : )

http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/webbchaos/album?.dir=/2383

I would love to find a floorplan...just to see
if mine is a bungalow I think it would be a sears, I haven't found the tail tail signs ie.. markings in the rafters and joist...but sears was big here around the time my house was built.

A four square is a two story house that is, well kind of square. The front of yours is sort of colonial revivalish. Of course there is always some overlap in definitions and styles.

Miley Cyrus: Heart Broken by Nick Jonasby Hilton Hater at . Comments
We don't know for sure if Miley Cyrus is a virgin.
But the young singer has finally confirmed another rumor about herself and Nick Jonas: they were each other's first loves.
"We became boyfriend and girlfriend the day we met," Cyrus says in the September issue of Seventeen Magazine. "He was on a quest to meet me, and he was like, 'I think you're beautiful and I really like you.' And I was like, 'Oh, my gosh, I like you so much.'"
Sounds like a normal, totally mature relationship to us.
Miley Cyrus can also now be referred to as the ex-girlfriend of Nick Jonas.
The teen stars are each 15 now - but Cyrus remembers the glorious years between 12 and 14 when they were each other's worlds.
"Nick and I loved each other," Cyrus said. "We still do, but we were in love with each other. For two years he was basically my 24/7. But it was really hard to keep it from people. We were arguing a lot, and it really wasn't fun."
"At first I bawled for a month straight. I was so sad. I just went into this weird funk. And I dyed my hair black... I was rebelling against everything Nick wanted me to be. And then I was like, I've got to be by myself for now, and just figure out who I really am."
Recently, it seems as though that person is an individual jealous of Selena Gomez for currently dating Jonas. Cyrus denies this, of course.
"Since [the breakup], I've realized that I've met so many great guys, but I like being the girl nobody can have. No one can touch me, no one's mine. I'm myself. I think it's sexy to do your own thing."
I really love miley to bits. I have been since haanah montana and all the way until now. And I really feel for her about the breakup. But she was 12, at that age u shouldn't be in a relationship I mean that's just too young. And fighting about what exactly??! That's my point. But even I love selena to bits also. Ever sice barney, I feel as if she shouldn't have dated Nick after miley because they are friends and she betrayed her. TbH
This is sad :( I hate Selena Gomez :/ she dated Nick, Taylor, and now the Bieber -.- Well doesn't she like fame!
FUCK YOU MILEY!.glad nick is dating someone else and not your skanky ass!.that was the best breakup evea! ;)
You guys are only bashing on Miley because your losers... your obviously jealous of her... i mean at one point not to long ago i hated her...it was really because i was jealous. So you guys are destroying her feelings on her to gain self-confidence for yourself. She a gorgeous girl with real talent. FACE THE FACTS and GET OVER IT!!!!!!
your a idiot miley cyrus oh yeah......................................your gross bitch and the climb SSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSS
dear miley,i am so sorry about your break up with nick and i hope you fine a better guy and i hope you spend the rest of your life with him and people lay off the girl she is way nicer than selena gomez ohhhhhhhhhhhhk
i am so sorry about your break up with nick but i do not mean to say this but i do think selena and nick does make a better couple and you and joe will make the perfect couple i hope you do not take this personally oh and i love how you act on hannah montana you acting skills are great i hope one day you can teach me tell thye cast i said hi
well,i don't have much to say but "love" is a strong word that us teens mistake for simple crushes.I've learned something important and it's that everything happens for a reason and that if it's meant to happen it will happen or else it won't so we just have to move on and be strong
i hate selena gomez i think miley derves nick if you are reading this miley ROCK ON do what you wont
i hate slena gomez hahah
Dont worry about him yall find a gay mile

Under the series of themes in the menu, you will find an inventory of the various programmes and initiatives which are funded by the European Commission and which have an urban dimension. A link to the relevant web addresses on Europa or beyond is provided under each entry. In addition, some recommended links are provided to European associations or research consortia.
Green cities
Sustainable mobility in cities
The urban dimension of the EU transport policy
The European Commission promotes sustainable urban mobility and the increased use of clean and energy efficient vehicles, to help strengthen Europe's economy and improve the quality of life of its citizens.
New political challenges have emerged in recent years: climate change, energy policy, air quality legislation, and the difficulties of tackling congestion are just some examples. The objective now is to improve mobility while at the same time reducing congestion, accidents and pollution in European cities.
ELTIS: the main European portal on Urban mobility
ELTIS is Europe's main portal on urban mobility, which helps to facilitate the exchange of information, knowledge and experiences in this field. It is aimed at individuals working in the field of transport, as well as in related disciplines, including urban and regional development, health, energy and environmental sciences.
ELTIS supports the creation of urban transport systems that use less energy and produce fewer emissions, while improving the competitiveness of urban areas and the mobility and quality of life of its citizens.
The CIVITAS Initiative ('City-Vitality-Sustainability', or 'Cleaner and Better Transport in Cities') supports cities in introducing ambitious transport measures and policies promoting sustainable urban mobility. Its goal is also to achieve a significant shift towards people using sustainable transport, through encouraging both innovative technology and policy-based strategies.
Almost 60 European cities have been co-funded by the European Commission to implement innovative measures in clean urban transport. an investment amounting to well over EUR 300 million. The larger CIVITAS Forum network comprises almost 200 cities that are committed to implementing and integrating sustainable urban mobility measures.
Environmentally-friendly cities
The urban dimension of the EU environmental policy
Many environmental problems are concentrated in cities, and the causes are often interrelated. These include changes in lifestyle (growing dependence on the private car, increase in individual households, increasing resource use per capita) and demography.
Many EU environmental laws and other initiatives exist to protect and improve the quality of the urban environment. For instance, EU legislation on air quality, a significant urban concern, establishes targets and limits values for different pollutants. There are action plans to reduce citizens' exposure to noise and to protect quiet areas, and legislation on waste management and urban waste water treatment has helped reduce cities' impact on the wider environment.
European Green Capital Award
The European Green Capital Award (EGCA) rewards local efforts to improve the environment, the economy and the quality of life in cities. Each year the EGCA is given to a city leading the way in environmentally friendly urban living and which can act as a role model to other cities.
The European Commission has already selected the following cities as European Green Capitals: Stockholm, 2010; Hamburg, 2011; Vitoria-Gasteiz, 2012; Nantes, 2013; Copenhagen, 2014; and Bristol, 2015.
Funding for sustainable cities in the next phase of LIFE
The LIFE programme is the EU's funding instrument for the environment. The general objective of LIFE is to contribute to the implementation, updating and development of EU environmental policy and legislation by co-financing pilot or demonstration projects with European added value. LIFE began in 1992 and to date there have been three complete phases of the programme (LIFE I: 1992-1995, LIFE II: 1996-1999 and LIFE III: 2000-2006). During this period, LIFE has co-financed some 3104 projects across the EU, contributing approximately €2.2 billion to the protection of the environment. The new LIFE Programme starting in 2014 will co-fund projects on air quality and emissions, including urban environment. The new LIFE Programme starting in 2014 will co-fund projects on air quality and emissions, including urban environment.
7th Environmental Action Programme
Environmental Action Programmes (EAPs) have guided the development of EU environment policy since the early 1970s, and the 7th EAP should be seen as part of a continuous process spanning 40 years. The new EAP is more strategic in nature than its predecessors, 'setting out priority objectives to be attained' (art. 192.3 TFUE) in environment policy in the context of the Europe 2020 Strategy. One of the Priority Objectives of the new EAP is to enhance the sustainability of EU cities.
more Information
Thematic strategy on air pollution
The soon to be proposed air quality package replaces current legislation and will establish objectives for air pollution and proposing measures to be achieved by 2020. It will not only modernise existing legislation, but placing emphasis on the most harmful pollutants, and better involve the sectors and policies that may have an impact on air pollution.
Urban-related Research & Innovation on environment
EU research and innovation has addressed issues such as: air pollution and climate change and linkages to health and cultural heritage; megacities; integrated tools for assessment and mitigation; urban disasters; spatial planning; urban water and waste management; and soil remediation. The new EU framework programme for research and innovation, Horizon 2020, will support action in this field under the 'Tackling Societal Challenges' pillar.
Renaturing Cities
The initiative Renaturing Cities is promoted by Directorate I "Climate Action and Resource Efficiency" of DG Research & Innovation in order to investigate innovative tools, strategies and best practices in the field of Nature-Based Solutions that European cities are adopting. This initiative aims to show how renaturing of cities can lead the greening of the European economy by combining greater productivity and innovation capacity with lower costs and reduced environmental impact. Renaturing cities is set-up in line with a systemic, multidisciplinary and multistakeholder approach in order to link greening of cities with other key issues, notably resilience, urban risks, climate change adaptation, ecosystems restoration, human health and wellbeing.
Cities targeting zero CO2 emissions
Covenant of Mayors
With almost 6000 signatories, the Covenant of Mayors is the biggest movement involving local and regional authorities in the fight against climate change, affecting the daily life of over 191 million people in Europe and beyond in a total of 53 countries.
Local authorities which sign the Covenant of Mayors make a formal voluntary commitment to meet and exceed the EU target of 20 % CO2 reduction by 2020, through increased energy efficiency and the development of renewable energy sources. Each local authority prepares and implements a Sustainable Energy Action Plan (SEAP), which is made public and submitted to the European Commission for evaluation. The cities also commit to encouraging the participation of its citizens and to report regularly on progress to achieving the goals set.
European Local Energy Assistance (ELENA)
The ELENA scheme, run by the European Investment Bank and financed under the EU's Intelligent Energy-Europe Programme, provides grants (up to 90 % of eligible costs) to local and regional authorities covering technical assistance costs related to the development of bankable large-scale sustainable energy investments. ELENA also assists local and regional authorities in the efficient spending of cohesion policy funds for energy efficiency and renewable energy.
Intelligent mobility
Intelligent transport systems (ITS) play a crucial role in the development of cities and benefit drivers, cyclists and pedestrians alike. These technologies allow vehicles to 'talk' to each other and communicate with the road infrastructure. They can improve traffic fluidity by offering alternatives to congested routes, as well as help to prevent crashes and reduce emergency response times in the case of accidents.
ITS applications can also help commuters to combine different modes of transport and rationalise passenger and freight transport by enabling informed trip decisions. Watch the iMobility video for examples of connected city mobility.
Research and innovation in the field of construction
The Energy-Efficient Buildings Public-Private Partnership was set up by the Commission in 2009 to tackle the consequences of the global economic downturn. The initiative examines energy-efficient construction and the refurbishment of existing buildings, as well as the design of new neutral/energy-positive buildings and energy-efficient communities.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This School has been the biggest blessing of my life. I was a newly single mother of 2 boys when I signed my older son up for the all day kindergarten. The staff was so welcoming. Mrs. Wose, the before and after care teacher is so kind and sweet to all of the children. The older kids at this school help and look after the younger ones. No one gets bullied or picked on. Now in first grade my older son has had trouble learning how to read. Mrs. Willing has been right there trying to figure out the problem. I am just blown away by how they have taken care of this. They have been incredibly proactive in making sure he gets what he needs to keep up. My younger son is very shy and hated going to daycare. He would cry every morning and break my heart. Now at the full day preschool at St. Emily is is happy. Mrs. Stephens, the preschool teacher is an angel. She is very sweet and kind with all of the children. I cannot say enough about St. Emily school. It is the best place around as far as I am concerned.
My daughter went to St. Emily for 2 years in preschool and 1 year in kindergarten. After the kindergarten, I had to take her out to a public school. First of all, I don't know what St. Emily's main focus is, academic or fundraising. Everyday my daughter went home with tons of fund raising flyers but no homework assignments. Second half of kindergarten year, she started to have homework once a week but it was too easy. It was just one page and she finished it in 5 minutes. I was so surprise at the amount of homework for a kindergartener, so I asked around, and all my friends' kids who went to public schools learned a lot more than my daughter. I taught my daughter to read at home while she was still learning one letter per week at school. So after couple months teaching her to read, I was proud to tell my friends that my daughter could read now. They said their kids read one book a week for several months already. Not only in reading, same thing with math. My daughter was still learning 1-30 at school while my friends' kids were learning adding and subtracting. On top of this, people were not friendly. They were in and out the school without saying hello to each other.
St. Emily is a great school with amazing teachers!! All my kids graduated from here and had a wonderful experience!!! Go eagles!!!!
St Emily school has provided all three of my children an excellent education, with different needs. The school offers a variety of clubs and activities and a wonderful and supportive community. My eldest child has excelled in honors and AP courses much to do with his preparedness. If you are looking for faith based superior education with support, safety and wonderful families this is the place to be!
Simply awesome school and community! Not perfect but have been extremely happy and so are my children!
I would put negative stars, but sadly, I can't. I was a St. Emily student and I was chased out by merciless bullies, useless teachers, a back stabbing community and no academic attention. If you're looking for a Catholic school in the Northwest suburbs, go St. Raymond. The St. Emily FLIGHTLESS Eagles know who wrote this.
I'm currently a student at St. Emily school. I'm glad that my parents chose St. Emily's. The teachers are nice, and if you need extra help, you can get tutored. I LOVE my education here St. Emily's.
I disagree with the above comment. My three children graduated from this school and all excelled in High School. Every school has it's issues and not any school is perfect. My kids are good kids because of St. Emily
I love St. Emily school. It has the best teachers and progrmas for student of the ages kindergarden thru 8th grade.
My daughter is a graduate of St Emily and currently is taking all Honors classes at her Public High School. We made the right choice for grade school.
I was disappointed by the fact that this school does not prepare their students for high school.

Owners can increase their buildings' energy efficiency by following energy codes, such as the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) — part of the International Code Council (ICC) family of codes — which "establishes minimum regulations for energy efficient building."
As I attended the 2015 IECC code-change hearings, I realized concrete and masonry products contribute to energy efficiency in specific ways that aren't promoted heavily by the concrete industry. Producers should remind energy-conscious owners and architects of two fundamental concepts: thermal mass and air infiltration.
Most people understand that the greater the R-value of a material, the less heat or cold that passes through it. These R-values (also called thermal resistances) are determined by steady-state tests. But increasing R-values isn't the only way to improve energy efficiency. Heat capacity also plays a big role.
In energy codes, whether a material is considered to have mass is determined by its heat capacity, or its ability to store heat. Because of concrete's heat capacity, it has thermal mass. Thus, the minimum thermal resistance (R-value) required for mass elements (walls and floors) is less than that of other types of construction.
Concrete's inherent mass helps meet increasingly stringent energy efficiency requirements with less added insulation. Other construction materials are now having to change basic construction methods (2x6 walls, or extended fasteners for cladding over exterior continuous insulation) to meet code minimums.
The amount of air that passes through a building envelope greatly influences the amount of energy needed to heat or cool that building. Although the amount of air that leaks into or out of a building depends on many factors (such as building height and temperature differentials), the materials, joints, and penetrations through the envelope also contribute to the amount of air infiltration. This is recognized in the 2012 IECC mandatory section C402.4 on Air Leakage.
When providing a continuous air barrier as part of section C402.4.1, there are three options for demonstrating compliance: materials, assemblies, or a building test. Cast-in-place and precast concrete are listed as compliant materials. If used, these materials do not need to undergo any additional testing to prove they demonstrate compliance, provided "joints are sealed and materials are installed as air barriers in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions."
This means designers can focus on other areas of the envelope when meeting IECC requirements.
When it comes to sustainability, popular benefits of concrete include supporting the local economy, using easily accessible and abundant resources, and durability or resilience. But when concrete is part of the building envelope system, designers can also save energy more easily with the same durable concrete producers have always provided.

Toaster Oven VS Countertop Oven
- Googs Jan 11, 2009 09:43 AM
Hubby and I don't like wasting energy firing up the oven during the week. It's just dinner for two really. We're in search of a high quality, mini oven. As the toast function isn't critical, we'd gladly sacrifice it for quality . However if one of the best was a toaster oven we certainly wouldn't let that get in our way. Can anyone recommend a brand and model? To take one name off of the list...
We can't take another minute of our horrible Black & Decker Toaster Oven. It's poor at both being an oven and a toaster. The only delight is that it's convection so I can at least truly say it blows.
I have an Oster 6248 convection countertop oven that I got from Costco. It's indispensable -- I use it instead of the real oven for all kinds of tasks -- baking, broiling, and reheating pizza. The only real problem is that it's lousy for toast.
We have a Cuisinart that is satisfactory as a toaster (slow, though) and good as an oven (also convection). You might want to check out this link:
Eric Ripert, chef at Le Bernardin, has some recipes on this blog under the heading Getting Toasted. (There are videos also for them.) He uses a fancy Cuisinart (more upscale than ours) for which he is surely paid handsomely. I've tried several of these recipes in our toaster oven and LOVE LOVE LOVE a few of them. They will make you look very kindly at mighty mini toaster ovens. Take a look --
Absolute favorite are the chicken tenders (there are just two of us for dinner most of the time, like you guys.)
I use a Waring Pro .9 cubic foot oven for daily use. I chose it because there is a rotisserie, and the controls are manual and easy to use. The avatar turkey was cooked perfectly on convection, although it was a tight fit. I like this unit and try to use it whenever possible. It heats up to 500 F in minutes, and is great for a simple round loaf of bread.
Just as an aside if you are doing this to save energy. Gas is pretty efficient check here to see how you electricity is generated
you might be saving gas but creating more nuclear waste than you think
Your needs and wants drive the recommendation. How are you going to use the oven? How many people do you generally cook for?
Some people have auxillary ovens for use at holidays for extra oven space (cooking pies and caseroles while the Turkey bakes or the Beef roasts. In that case, maybe a 2 shelf 1 cu. ft model is your best bet. Like the Cuisinart Brick which has convection or Hamilton Beach 1.1 cu ft Convection Bake Broil Rotisserire.
If however you wish to use this as a cooking for 2 save energy oven then a 6 slice toaster oven/ 0.5 cu. ft toaster convection oven is the way to go. The 4 slicers are just 2 small to be very useful as an full size oven substitute....limiting you to one slice of pizza or the 9" Tostinos if you are lucky....though they are better bread toasters generally.
Of the .5 cu. ft Toaster ovens that can take a 12" pizza, these are highly rated.
Krups FBC2 (some other and older Krups too)
Cuisinart 195 and 175
Black & Decker 6301
The Oster mentioned above and its available at Walmart.
Of those mentioned I like the Cuisinarts and the B&D. The B&D is a little wider interior oven space that can accomodate 13" wide broiler and jelly roll pans. However the Cuisinart has more interior space because of the rounded front of the B&D(which also has a slot in the back to accomodate a 12" Digornio....however the B&D has better viewing of the interior because of same and may get up to temp a bit quicker because of the reduced interior space.
The Krups feels abit cheap, but it has ceramic elements and 3 of them top and bottom which allows for quick heat times and even toasting.
The Oster feels abit cheap as well, but its controls are nice, especially the LCD and it is spacious. Does everything but toast well (like most of these units).
The Cuisinart has very loud timer beeps, and doesnt shut off at the end of the timer countdown. The B&D does shut off after the timer countdown ends. The Cuisinart has a rear removal crumb tray, the B&D and all others front removal which is much preferred...however the Cuisinart is not as wide on the exterior dimension as teh B&D and others because its controls are located in that crumb tray position on the bottom....which may be advantageous for placment on the counter.
Im looking for a toaster oven too. I cant decide between the Cuisinart 175 and 195 or the B&D 6301.
re: EscapeVelocity
When I was looking I narowed my decision to the Oster and the Cuisinart. I've always had very good luck with Cuisinart appliances, so I was leaning that way, but some feature (I can't remember what) tipped me over to the Oster. That said I've been very happy with it. It was quite a bit cheaper as well.
I have never had good luck with B&D appliances of any kind. They work fine, but they tend to fail fairly quickly.
Those links lead to posts I've made about my Cadco convection oven. Instead of repeating myself, I'll let you just skim through those messages. In my not so humble opinion, I believe the Cadco to be just about the finest countertop convection oven you can buy for your home...
Be sure to shop around for the best price.
re: Joe Blowe
If you are going to go 1 cu. ft or there abouts like the Cadco .83 cu ft. OV 250, then you might consider the Cuisinart Brick which is considerably cheaper, but not cheap. There is also the Hamilton Beach 1.1 cu foot Convection Broiler Bake Rotisserie oven, which is a bit cheapish looking but it gets the job done and is a great addition to oven space when you need it. However, I still think the 0.5 - 0.6 cu. ft ovens are the best compromise for the most people.
There are three levels of convection heat quality:
1) A fan blows in air from the outside. Most convection toaster ovens do this.
2) A fan re-circulates hot air within the oven.
3) There is an element in front of a fan, for a hot blast of air.
I haven't seen '3' in a consumer model, although you can get it in a range.
'2' is the best compromise, as it does not introduce outside air.
re: jayt90
jayt90, do you know of any particular '2' consumer models?
EscapeVelocity, in the main we use it for dinners/breakfasts for two. I might roast chicken or pork, grill salmon, or broil bacon amongst other things. We also use it for extra oven space when we need to cook at two completely different temperatures as in slow roasting pork in one and roasting potatoes in another. You sure do know a great deal about toaster ovens!
For all of the models being rec'd, I wouldn't mind knowing the following as these are all problems with the Black & Decker:
What's the zero to 60 on these in terms of coming up to temperature;
How well/quickly do they broil;
How much heat do they radiate;
How noisy are they when using convection;
Can you bake, say, muffins without risk of burning the top?
For those rec'ing the Cuisinart Brick (I must say it does look and sound darn sexy) do you or anyone you know actually own one? Not that I've ever encountered a bad Cuisinart product, but there's always a first time.
re: Googs
I dont own and have never owned a toaster oven. So I cant answer those questions.
However, I did a lot of professional cooking in a Steak & Seafood restaurant a few years ago, for a few years, in college and just after.
The pre heat times are faster than larger ovens on all of these, around 5 minutes.
Some of them broil pretty good, the trick is looking for high wattage. The ones mentioned here are the cream of the crop.
Toaster ovens get hot on the outside, that is just the nature of the beast. The Cuisinart Brick has brick insulators which may keep the exterior a bit cooler, as they absorb/insulate and slowly radiate heat. The Cadco apparently has good insulation as well, for effeciency and heat retention.
Some are noisier than others.....I wouldnt worry about it though.
Many of the DIGITALLY CONTROLLED toaster ovens, like the Krups, B&D, Cusinarts, and Oster above have a "Bagel Button" which turns the bottom elements on high, and top broiler elements are at a reduced level so your muffins (bagels) wont burn on top. The Cuisinart Bricks, Hamilton Beach 1.1 cu ft (3 knob non digital jobs dont have this function).
Another you might consider is the Breville BOV800XL The Smart Oven. This might be the best all around compromise for your wants and needs. Its .8 cu ft. and has digital controls and smart burners(they arent just on or off but digitally adjusted power levels).
I think the Krups is the best performer from professional and others reviews. However the Cuisinarts arent too shabby either, and they look and feel much higher quality. Given your comments, I would recommend the Cuisinart 195 Digital Convection Toaster Oven.....and you should look at the Cuisinart Brick and the Krups FBC2 before you take the plunge. Or maybe the Breville is the perfect countertop "toaster" oven for you. If you like the simplicity of the 3 dial knobs, then the Cuisinart Brick 200(non convection) or 300(Convection optional) is for you, but you lose some fancy features(fancy control of the burners and temps).
Good Luck
re: EscapeVelocity
Here is a video on the Breville Smart Oven...
There is also a good video and some thorough reviews towards the bottom of the Amazon page.
re: EscapeVelocity
Thank you so, soooo much. This helps a great deal. You've been really terrific.
re: Googs
I think Cadco, Cuisinart, and Waring Pro are all interior convection, but I haven`t actually seen the Brick. When you examine a cheap toaster oven with convection, you will find an air intake on the outside, supplying air to the fan. The true convection models don`t do this.
Cadco is pro level, has high heat bearings, and a special squirrel cage fan. Expensive, and worthwhile if you want the best, for heavy use.
The Cuisinart brick seems to be aimed at bakers, for pizza and bread. You would have to remove the bottom brick for other uses, or else waste a lot of BTU`s heating it up.
The Waring Pro (at Home Outfitters) comes in 1.5 cu ft or .9 cu. ft models, both with manual controls and stainless steel finish. The 1.5 has a larger fan, similar to Cadco, but has to distribute the same amount of BTU`s in a 50% larger space, so may not heat up as fast. I bought the .9 cu ft. model, with rotisserie, to use instead of the range, for roasts, bread, and casseroles. It heats up to 450 F in 5 minutes. Another minute for 500 F. Fan noise is quiet, about like a microwave, and there is no excessive heat leakage. It has a heavy glass oven door.
I haven`t done muffins, but bread browns evenly without charring.
The broil cycle and the rotisserie mode are both without fan, but they work well.
The largest roast I have done is a 14 lb turkey, and it was a bit uneven (tight fit), and I could have turned it for evenness, but I was snoozing and let it go to 3 hour completion at 425 F. It`s in my avatar on on the left.
This is one of my favorite purchases. Roast chicken or a large loaf of bread takes 50 minutes, a duck slightly longer, but crisp and tender.
re: Beach Chick
So to break it all down we have in the larger .8 to 1.1 cu ft size we have the
Cadco 250 $600+
Waring Pro .9 $250+
Breville 800 .8 Digital $250+
Cusinart Brick 300 .9 $250+
Cuisinart Brick 200 .9 $225+ (no convection)
Hamilton Beach 1.1 $100+
On the smaller .5 to .6 cu ft side we have the
Krups FBC4 $175+ Digital
Cuisinart 195 $175+ Digital
Cuisnart 155 (no convection) $150+ Digital
B&D 6301 $90+ Digital
Oster 6897, 6898, 6899 $90+ Digital
KitchenAid $90+ NOT digital (no convection)
re: EscapeVelocity
My favorites are the
Breville 800 & Cuisinart 195
The Cadco is just too expensive, but I bet its a real performer and built to last.
The Hamilton Beach is a Best Buy Value.
The toaster oven gets used frequently in our house. I've got double ovens with extremely large capacity, so for heating items up we use the convection. It's cheaper to use and consumes far less energy. Plus we almost never use a microwave, so for heating up certain leftover dishes the toaster over does a nice job....especially for leftover pizza.
We had a Delongi w/ convection that we just loved. The knobs broke off after 6+ years of regular use. Now we have the Cuisinart and it's not as good as my old Delongi, but it serves its purpose. Toasting takes a lot longer, but I've helped that along by running a short toasting cycle while I cook.
If you don't want to keep it on the counter make sure you have plenty of room to store. The cuisinart takes up a lot of cupboard space. I hate clutter on the counters, so fortunately I have a large number of cabinets.
What can I say, but WOW. You've all been so kind and informative. Thank you for your generous donation of time and information. It's very much appreciated. We've now narrowed it down to either Waring Pro or Breville. We wouldn't have known about either of these choices without your help. Again, thank you.
re: EscapeVelocity
After much research, I went with the B&D 6301. Ill let you know how it goes.
I found that Bed, Bath, and Beyond had the best selection of Toaster Ovens to physically inspect. Including the B&D 6301, Krups FBC2, Cuisinart 195, Cuisinart Brick 200, KitchenAid, and a couple of others. The Oster can be seen at Walmart.
One note I would like to make, is that the Krups has 3 elements on top and 3 on bottom. And they are the quartz style elements, not the traditional elements. The B&D also has Quartz elements, 2 top + 2 bottom(4 total). The Cuisinarts have traditional heating elements.
Hi everyone - this is a great post! Does anyone recommend a larger convection oven that can fit a 14 inch wide pan? It seems like most of these are just a bit too small.
The Waring Pro CO1500 1.5 cubit foot oven (for $400) looks like it could be big enough. Has anyone used this one? Are there any other ones I should consider?
Thanks so much!
re: bugmenot
I dont know the inside dimensions of the Waring Pro 1.5. You could probably do a search and find out.
However, they do make countertop pizza ovens for commercial and home use. You can probably find one that can take a 14" pizza.
Here is an example at Amazon...

After a successful summer partnership with Jay Z and his Magna Carta Holy Grail album release, Samsung may have some competition on its hands as reports claim Apple has added a heavyweight tech-savvy guru to its team.
According to reports, former Nike design director Ben Shaffer is now down with Team Apple.
A move that's perhaps the most obvious step toward the possible introduction of the long-rumored iWatch, Apple has reportedly hired former Nike design director Ben Shaffer. While at Nike, Shaffer served as the Studio Director for the Swoosh's storied Innovation Kitchen, which was most recently responsible for the development of Flyknit and, previously, the FuelBand – expertise that will obviously come in handy for any so-called "wearable technology" from Apple. This marks just the latest in the development of the iWatch as Apple hired renowned fitness expert – and longtime Nike consultant – Jay Blahnik, who was instrumental in the development of the FuelBand, just last month. (Hype Beast)
Shaffer's addition to Apple will likely see him in the heart of its fitness division.
9to5Mac posits that Shaffer will use his experience with the Fuelband to implement some fitness-tracking options in Apple's future wearable device, though at this point there's no official word on what Shaffer will be doing at Apple. It's also near-certain that if Apple does introduce a wearable device this year, it likely will have little or no influence from the company's new hire. However, a recent report indicated that Apple might not release such a device until 2014, which means there may be time for Shaffer to exert his influence on the company's entry into the market. If the rumor of Shaffer's hire is correct, it appears he'll join fitness consultant Jay Blahnik, another former member of Nike's Fuelband team. (The Verge)
Back in June, Bad Boy Records CEO Diddy talked about Jay Z teaming with Samsung and just how worried Apple should become
"While I was out here I called Jay and me and him been talking back and forth about the network and about his deal and how proud we were of each other. We're actually changing together the business model of the music industry. As far as our power, you can see the power that we have, not me and Jay-Z, the power that we have as a culture that Samsung now is going to give Apple a run for its money. People actually believe and we believe in our leaders in hip-hop. What they say is cool and what they say is next and we recognized that what Samsung is doing is moving forward. We were like "Hey man, we may need to give this Galaxy joint a chance" and that's a lot of power, man." (VIBE)
As the competition heats up, Apple's sales continue to be examined even more closely.
Apple (AAPL) Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook has taken plenty of flack for running a company that is supposedly well past its glory days–and the iPhone smartphone franchise is sometimes dismissed as a spent force, losing ground to more innovative brands such as Android and Samsung (005930:KS). Well, here's a little perspective for the Apple-haters. The iPhone 5s and 5c sold a record 9 million units during the first weekend after its launch. Consider this: The brand's sales haul over the last four reported quarters eclipses that of such companies as Home Depot (HD), Microsoft (MSFT), Target (TGT), Goldman Sachs (GS), Amazon (AMZN), PepsiCo (PEP), Comcast (CMCSA), Dell (DELL), Google (GOOG), Pfizer (PFE), and UPS (UPS).
