Meet the newest member of my family, the 1970s-something Proctor Silex Deluxe Toaster Oven. It seems rather odd, perhaps unique? in that it has a pop-up toaster integrated into the top. This is my first vintage toaster so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I thought it did a great job making toast. A knob on the side snaps a metal door over the toaster slot for when you want to use the oven. It also has a neat setting hidden under the unit that allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the toast settings. My only gripe is that the woodgrain trim on the sides has faded very badly to a pale yellow. That chrome though... Still one sexy toaster!

Looks nice. No doubt it is better made than any toaster ovens produced today. Btw, is that a Hotpoint oven in the picture? I recognize that color scheme from the oven we had when I was growing up. |
