It’s a toaster oven sibling quarrel between the Hamilton Beach Easy Reach 4 Slices (31344DA) and the Hamilton Beach 31127D. The winner is often the bigger and stronger and in this case it’s the second one.
Both models are conventional toaster ovens with roll-top doors to save counter space and to maneuver food in and out more easily. As a result, they both have similar scores in terms of design.
Their key differences lie in their difference in size and power output. The 31127D’s larger cooking chamber offers more space for cooking and cleaning.
Both units have similar scores in baking pizza and roasting whole chicken. The 31127D, however, scored higher in toasting bread and baking fries—two tests requiring high temperature.
