COMFEE CFO-BB101 vs Black+Decker CTO6335S Toaster Oven Side-by-Side Comparison
COMFEE CFO-BB101 vs Black+Decker CTO6335S Toaster Oven. Will the dwarf or the giant emerge victorious in this battle of budget countertop toaster ovens?

Specifications
Design
While being compact, the Comfee CFO-BB101 has a good capacity compared to the similar-sized Hamilton Beach 31401. Moreover, it still has all the standard exterior features, plus a neat detachable crumb tray. However, it’s very lacking in terms of the interior even though it uses quartz heating elements. Its overall construction also leaves a lot to be desired.
The Black+Decker CTO6335S has a sturdy construction. Standouts for us were the baking pan plus broiling rack combo and the quartz heating elements.
Usability Comparison
The Comfee CFO-BB101 doesn’t have anything strong going for it in terms of usability. The simple control has some drawbacks and doesn’t provide much convenience. However, a detachable crumb tray makes it easier to clean the oven, especially if the oven is of this size.
The Black+Decker CTO6335S has an easy-to-use control panel. However, it doesn’t have any features that encompass convenience. Even the automatic preheat feature isn’t very useful. In addition, its door and buttons are a bit dodgy.
Performance Test
The Comfee CFO-BB101 has only two heating elements, and this often resulted in uneven coloring on our test dishes. Our speculation was that the low power output hinders the oven’s performance in test dishes that require a high temperature (> 400°F), including pizza and fries. One solution could be to decrease the amount of food compared to what we used for our test amount.
In addition, it was hard to input an exact temperature and time due to the limited settings on the control knob, especially for making toast. A small unit that doesn’t have temperature and control problems is the Breville BOV450XL.
The Black+Decker CTO6335S performed quite well in most of our test dishes except for the baked french fries. We speculated that 1500 W wasn’t able to heat the elements fast enough to keep up with the oven’s large capacity.

Conclusion
When tested with equal amounts of food, the COMFEE CFO-BB101 suffered defeat at the hands of the Black+Decker CTO6335S in all of our performance tests. We’d recommend you decrease the portion sizes from our test amounts.
It was understandable for a smaller toaster oven to cook less food at a time than a large one. However, there were other factors that may have contributed to their difference in performance.
The Comfee consumes minimal energy with its two quartz heating elements drawing 1000 watts. However, that energy savings unfortunately meant it couldn’t maintain a high temperature, resulting in low scores in baking toast, pizza, and fries.
The Black+Decker was nowhere near perfect either, especially in baking french fries. Despite having a higher power rating of 1500 W, the oven still wasn’t able to heat its four quartz heating elements fast enough to keep up with its capacity. It does have a strong advantage in the form of a convection system, though.
The Black+Decker’s buttons and the Comfee’s dials are both simple to use in their own way. However, the former’s various functions are extra helpful to beginners. It’s also equipped with a broiling rack in addition to the basic oven rack and baking pan.
Overall, the COMFEE CFO-BB101 is not a bad choice if you want to save energy and space on the kitchen counter. On the other hand, the Black+Decker CTO6335S takes up more space but operates longer in your kitchen with its durable stainless steel outer shell.
