Negative Positive
Title: Purchased June 2005, RIP Sept 2007
Review: I must start by saying that our prior Black & Decker toaster ovens lasted more than 5 years, and were still working well when we bought new ones. By the time we got rid of them, they were very unattractive, but we would clean them up and donate them to charity. One of our Black & Deckers might have actually died on us, but we never felt we got a bad deal.We paid about 100$ for the Delonghi, and for that price I do not feel we received good value at 27 months of service. Our expectations are more along the lines of 60 months of service, for less than 100$. As with another recent review, our unit just stopped working spontaneously.The Delonghi is stylish, which does not really matter much to me. It has an excellent removable tray which cleans easily. While it worked, it worked well. If it had lasted even 48 months, I would have been basically satisfied. 60 months and I would have been completely satisfied. 27 months is inadequate.
Is the review positive or negative?
