Is it Worth it to have a Digital Toaster?

First of all, let´s review the types of toasters available at the market. The two main groups of toaster ovens are:  dial-operated and digital. Each toaster has its own pros and cons. Usually, the smaller units work with dials. The digital toaster ovens are larger than the dial-operated and generally feature a six-slice unit or bigger categories.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Dial-Operated Machines Advantages: Dial-operated toaster

  • Easy to operate A typical model has 3 knobs to control the cooking function, timer and temperature.  Its operation is as simple as rotating the dials to your desired choice and the oven will heat up.
  • Cheaper  The cost of a dial-operated model is usually about 4 to 5 times less expensive.

Dial-Operated Machines Disadvantages:

  • Lacks precision  You will not be able to be so accurate when adjusting the temperature and timer and therefore it will be harder to get the precise toast shade you want.
  • Ticking sound   Because of the mechanical nature of dials, some people think this noise is annoying when the timer is counting down.

Digital Machines Advantages:Digital toaster advantages

  • Better control for the toasts  With a digital toaster you will have more consistent toast shade results.
  • Exact settings You can see the exact settings you have keyed and set the time and temperature for a cooking cycle so you don´t have to rely on the closest estimate.
  • One touch cooking Only digital toasters offer this feature. It is special for those who are in a hurry.
  • More functions Some digital toasters have 14 or 15 functions. Some also have different cooking steps such as bake and keep warm. For example, you can bake, pizza, toast, roast, biscuit, bagel, keep warm and reheat.
  • Extra-wide slots accommodate a wide variety of bread and bagels.
  • Defrost and cancel functions for ease of use.
  • Automatic shutoff gives you extra safety.

Digital Machines Disadvantages:

  • Buttons from keypads fail Sometimes buttons are hard to press because they lack sensitivity.
