I have owned a few toaster ovens over the years but most of them ended up being stashed away in one of my cupboards until I needed space and sold them at various yard sales. That pretty much changed when we got our current toaster oven from Home Essentials. I can’t even remember when we got this particular brand of toaster oven. Part of me thinks it might have been a wedding gift (6 years ago) but I think we either bought it or got it as a Christmas gift a little more recently.
