I went with the small Black & Decker. Digital controls would be nice but I can live with the analog controls. It takes about 10 minutes to preheat up to 450* and you can use the timer so you don't have to baby sit it. It browned toast evenly other than a very slight burn on the back edge. The 4 quartz tube elements (2 top, 2 bottom) seem to be doing a great job of heating evenly. I wrapped the bottom plate with aluminum foil to take care of spills. It came with a cooking sheet but I will look for foil pans of a similar size rather than covering it with foil also.
It would be better to make sure your toaster oven is safe for using foil that way. One of my friends experienced a fire caused by improper foil usage in toaster oven. Some of the toaster oven manuals say it will be dangerous to wrap foil around cooking equipment.
