Toastation Thank you December 29, 2010, 10:47:10 am Yahoo Message Number: 119248Andy and all, thanks for the recommendation on the Toastation. After reading all your positive press, I bought one at Buy.com's sale price; it just came in yesterday. While I haven't used it yet, I am very impressed with it's look and technology. Anytime I can have one device do two or more functions, it goes high on my list for the RV.Again, very impressed, and thank you!Lee

Re: Toastation thank you Reply #3 – December 30, 2010, 06:32:35 pm Yahoo Message Number: 119275Hey, let's relax, folks. It's true that we've had a number of posts on this topic, but that's because a lot of people were interested in a toaster oven/toaster small enough to fit in an RV's limited counter space, yet big enough to be useful. Witness that fact that I personally know of at least 15 Toastations purchased in the two weeks since this topic came up. I'm certainly not going to shut down an RVing-related discussion that's of interest to so many people. If you're bored with the topic, just skip the messages. :-)Andy Baird http://www.andybaird.com/travels/

Re: Toastation thank you Reply #15 – December 31, 2010, 04:35:09 pm Yahoo Message Number: 119302I know everyone is excited about their new toastation. What I don't really understand is why people don't just make toast in the oven. We always have propane, so when we are boondocking instead of running the generator, I fix the toast in the oven. That's what I do at home and have since we married 41 years ago. Also it leaves our very limited counter top clear.Dorothy Malpas Koko - Hoover, AL#2981, SE 21, SC 54, NW 56
Re: Toastation thank you Reply #16 – December 31, 2010, 04:52:50 pm Yahoo Message Number: 119303I would like to have a toaster oven and I use the one a lot that's in our sticks and bricks home, but we'll just not have the room in 24ft Gracie. We just warm up the cast iron skillet, butter the bread, and put it in there with the lid on. Doesn't take much time, I can wipe the crumbs and butter out without big scrubbing, and the cast iron skillet has other uses too, on the stove top or in the oven. Denise

That's a good solution, in that it requires no extra equipment and no electricity. On the other hand, if you have electric hookups--which I do in the colder winter and hotter summer months--a toaster oven is quicker, more convenient (no need to crouch on your hands and knees and light the oven), and uses no propane, so you can go longer between trips to fill up. In short, it's all a question of your situation.Andy Baird http://www.andybaird.com/travels/

We have never had a toaster oven and my wife recently bought a Black & Decker Toast-R-Oven mainly because of its low sale price and good reviews. No bargain should go unpurchased at our house. We have eliminated our home toaster and now use this little guy for many things we used to use the oven for, thus saving some electricity by not firing up a large electric oven. We definitely will take it in the LD when we travel thus replacing the toaster and limiting the use of the oven.Happy New Year to the best group of RVers anywhere!Chris Horst 2002 30'IB Arvada, CO

Re: Toastation feet Reply #24 – January 01, 2011, 05:56:16 pm Yahoo Message Number: 119321I ran into a problem with my Toastation this afternoon after a long drive: one of the feet fell off. Turns out they're held on by sheet metal screws, and the screw had loosened up from vibration during the drive. While examining it, I noticed that another foot was starting to come loose... and my friends Judie & Gary told me that one of the feet fell off their Toastation while they were traveling awhile back. Fortunately, each foot has a rubber plug that prevents the screw from being lost, even if it loosens completely. I took out all four rubber plugs, removed all four feet, and reinstalled them after dabbing Loctite on the ends of the screws. Hopefully that'll keep them from loosening again. Just thought you ought to know... it's something to watch out for.Andy Baird 'lifewithalazydazervandatoastation' ;-)
