[Electronics-talk] Accessible Convection Toaster Oven

[Gerald Levy]

All toaster-ovens under $50, convection or otherwise, still use mechanical 
knobs and switches to set temperature and cooking time.  Only the more 
expensive models use electronic controls or touchpads. I just purchase a 
Black & Decker toaster oven, model TRO-480 for $25 at KMart, and it has 
three large, easy to set knobs.  I placed tactile bumps at the 400 degree 
setting on the temperature knob and another bump at the 15 minute setting on 
the timer knob.  Very simple and basic.
