While cooking a frozen pizza in my toaster oven the wires over heated and began smoking. There was no fire in the oven itself. The food was still partially frozen, nothing on the bottom was on fire or smoldering and the element was not burning, smoking or sparking. The overheating/fire/smoke event was entirely contained to the portion of the toaster oven on the right hand side where the controls are located as well as the convection fan.

The unit has two functions: toaster over and toaster. To operate the toaster or oven, you have to slide the level to the appropriate setting. While the oven level with the dial on the “off” setting, the oven light comes on. The “oven” portion was used this morning, and the dial turned to the “off” position after use. Unfortunately, the oven remained in operation although it should have been off. The toaster oven almost set my house on fire. I have photographs of the oven and the unit if needed.

BLACK+DECKER 4-Slice Toaster Oven with Natural Convection, Stainless Steel, TO1760SS None of this is a joke. I think the only reason why no lawsuits is because item is cheap, just hurts the poor, and doesn’t kill just is a severe burn risk in many ways. Also, for those unconcerned about safety it is in a small category of inexpensive high wattage, small toaster-ovens. Why dangerous? 1) Leak from toaster heats knobs which get as hot as inside of toaster. Steam visible on knobs while heating. 2) Door does not open completely, so easily tips forward toward user and worse hot rack slides out toward user when tips. 3) Poor or zero tactile and audio feedback for off, and hard to turn-off. 4) Worse, just passed the off position is a permanently on position. So easy to accidentally keep on. Fire hazard. They even know it, and warn in big letters what to do in case of fire. Only indicator is subtle light, and very subtle in daytime since it dims (not kidding) when inside reaches set temperature. 5) Small, but BPA containing product poorly labeled. 6) Rack is in contact with glass. I could not maintain any space, even with effort. This is probably why negative reviewers report that glass shatters. The main risk is obviously that heat leaks through backs of knobs to a a virtually unlimited temperature (maybe limit is 450 degrees F, I did not do an experiment) AND easily tips toward user spilling hot rack, and falling. Also, I think Amazon censored my review because I said it should not be sold. They did however answer my phone call, took a report, and processed a return.

The consumer indicates that she was using the toaster oven when it caught on fire approximately five or six minutes after she had turned it on. There were flames as high as one foot. The consumer unplugged the toaster oven immediately and a few minutes later she poured water on it. The consumer dismantled the unit and kept some of its parts before discarding the others. The consumer indicates that she used her toaster oven at least once daily.

Your toaster broiler oven, model # RTO1400ss, gives off sparks of fire while we HAD in use. we immediately unplugged and stopped usage. The first time there were sparks was August 20, 2011, while being used. Second time of incident was today, September 7, 2011. This time I actually saw the sparks come from the vents on top of oven. It was unplugged.

On April 2,2011 I bought Toaster Oven Broiler from Sears.com. Unfortunately I didn't open package for another couple months. Sears has 90 days satisfaction warranty. In the end of August I tried to return the product because of safety issue, I burned my fingers twice and my wife three times. Sears refused to take product back, claiming expiration of 90 days, so under normal circumstances I wouldn't dispute my fault with that. The problem is this product is health hazard. Now here is the problem: on the front there is a handle that you grab to open up the door, right behind the handle there is a metal strip which is a part of the door frame, this metal strip is about one inch wide and gets extremely hot, now space between the handle and the strip is about one inch. When you grab the handle you will touch this hot metal strip with your fingers (outside part between your knuckles and first joint) and burn yourself painfully. There is no way that normal size person can open that door without hurting itself. Now I went to Home Depot to see other models of toasters and amazingly I found another model made by the same company that looks almost identical and on the top that same metal strip there is plastic strip that provides insulation so you won't get burned. I would like to add that during phone call conversation Sears.com was fully inform about this specific safety hazard yet as of today Sept. 6, 2011 it is still available on Sears.com. On Aug. 26, 2011 I received email from Sears Customer Care, signed [REDACTED] that they won't take this product back because of 90 days policy, never mentioned or even thank for bringing such as serious safety issue up.

1. On bake at any temp. will go to 500 degrees, my temp. knob only goes to 450 degrees. Elements will not shot down. 2. Second one they sent took over a month to get. As you can see on the video's, oven set at 350 goes to (over 500) oven set at 300 goes over 400 degrees. Manufacture won't believe me. Even w/ pictures.
