Toaster Oven Capacity

Toaster ovens are available in a number of sizes. The capacity of a toaster oven equals the interior of the toaster oven is measured in cubic feet. Broadly speaking, the capacity of a toaster oven can be judged by the number of slices of bread that can be toasted in it at the same time. A 2 slice toaster oven is going to be a small toaster oven, with a capacity of around .12 cubic feet. A 4 slice toaster oven is likely to be a large toaster oven of .3 cubic feet or larger. An extra large toaster oven of .5 cubic feet may hold 6-slices of bread or more, or a 12" pizza!

A large capacity oven is a good choice for a family toaster oven, or for a chef who enjoys using toaster oven cooking. Mid-sized toaster ovens (4-slice) are sufficient for most consumers, and tend to take up less space. Small capacity toaster ovens (1-slice) are perfect for dorm rooms, motel rooms or similar small spaces.
