The COMFEE CFO-BB101 Compact Toaster Oven simply paled in comparison to the Toshiba AC25CEW-BS Digital Convection Toaster Oven. The former costs only around half as much, but is also only about half as large and scores only about half as high as the latter.

On our tests, the Toshiba was better at making all the foods including toast, pizza, a whole chicken, and french fries. The reasons could be contributed to the Toshiba having a convection system, more heating elements, and most of all, a higher power draw.

The Comfee not only lack the features above but also has a lower build quality shown in its thin casing. While the Toshiba didn’t stand out in terms of convenience, its LCD and control buttons were much more precise and easy to use than the Comfee’s analog dials.

Still, the Comfee CFO-BB101 serves its functions, saves space, and doesn’t use a lot of energy. Meanwhile, the Toshiba AC25CEW-BS gives you more back for your buck; in fact, it’s our pick for the best-value toaster oven.
