Dash Mini Toaster Oven Dash Mini Toaster Oven
Amazon
$29.99
If you have the space for a toaster oven, you'll want to snag this multifunctional little appliance from editor-favorite brand Dash. Contributor Stella uses it to toast all kinds of things, from bagels to nuts to slices of artisanal bread and says it holds an impressive amount. "Other features I love are the crumb tray (which keeps my counters clean) and mini oven rack, which are dishwasher-safe for an easy bi-weekly cleanup," she adds. "Oh, and the little window lets me monitor what’s going on inside in real time. Unlike a traditional toaster, where the doneness of your slice is a total mystery until it pops out, I have total control over when to retrieve my slice if I did happen to miscalculate and turn the knob a little too far."

The material is so soft and cool at the same time. Honestly, these are so worth the price. We did a lot of research on high quality sheets and these were the best ones we came across so far."

This piece also makes an ideal storage and display piece for entryways and home offices. I personally own three Mustard Made lockers — The Lowdown, The Standard, and The Midi — and have found them useful for stashing baskets, books, and device cords in my home office. Best of all, because they're made of metal, you're more than welcome to decorate the inside or outside with decorative magnets! (Read our full review of Mustard Made here.)

"Absolutely love the different tops you can put on it for hot and cold drinks," says this Amazon shopper. "[It] fits so comfortably in my cup holder and actually keeps my drinks cold for 24 hours, not that they actually last that long, but I did have to check and see how long it could last."
