Black+Decker Convection (CTO6335S) vs Black and Decker 4 Slice Toaster Oven Side-by-Side Comparison

Black+Decker Convection (CTO6335S) vs Black and Decker 4 Slice Toaster Oven

Overall Verdict

The match between Black+Decker Convection Toaster Oven (CTO6335S) and the Black and Decker 4 Slice Toaster Oven (TO1760SS) is quite literally a sibling rivalry. Comparing two models of the same brand really highlights the common advantages that a large unit has as opposed to a small one.

The convection model has an overall score one point higher than the 4-slice and also across the board including design, usability, and performance. Moreover, it doesn’t even cost that much more, not even twice as much.

The TO1760SS has a standard design with two quartz heating elements and three analog control dials. On the other hand, the CTO6335S four quartz heating elements and a digital control panel with buttons for cooking presets, convection toggle, and more precise timer and temperature adjustment.

Having a convection system and a higher power output, the CTO6335S was able to toast bread, bake pizza, roast whole chicken, and bake fries in a shorter amount of time while getting better color and crispiness than the TO1760SS. Its larger cooking chamber also made cooking less of a mess and therefore, easier to clean.
