Oster French Door vs Panasonic FlashXpress Digital Small Toaster Oven

Overall Verdict

The Oster French Door (TSSTTVFDDG) is an extra-large digital convection toaster oven while the Panasonic FlashXpress (NB-G110P) is a small digital toaster oven without convection. Thus, it’s no surprise that the first product is the winner. However, it may surprise you that their scores don’t differ as much as their sizes.

Both units have interior lights, crumb trays, and an interesting design quirk of their own. The Oster has a sleek brush stainless steel casing and a single-pull French door. Meanwhile, the Panasonic has a vintage-appliance-look and an auto-pull rack.

The Oster has intuitive buttons but they usually require quite a bit of force to register. The Panasonic has a few distinct cooking presets that are typical in a Japanese appliance but its timer and temperature range aren’t very detailed and expansive.

The Oster’s larger cooking chamber makes putting food in and out and also cleaning afterward easier. Meanwhile, the Panasonic’s auto-pull rack limits the space of its already-small cooking chamber.

Performance evaluation was where the interesting upset happened. Both ovens produced good results, but the Panasonic was better at most of the tests, including toasting bread, baking pizza, and fries. Despite having a higher power draw and a convection system, the Oster only scored higher than the Panasonic in roasting whole chicken.
