Another 'heads up' for our UK readers.

This time, Wilkinson ["Wilko"] is offering a toaster oven,
in its January sale - three on display in my local store.

Details below from www.wilko.co.uk, search for OVEN.

Mini Oven - Sabichi - Product ID:0228912/5
White, 9 Litre capacity
Regular price £14.99, sale £10.00.

Can be used for baking, grilling and toasting
[Looks a reflow mod candidate too :-) ]

Bimetal thermostat control from 70-220 deg C
[plus full CW 'toast' = full on? - manual claims 250]
Clockwork minutes timer with auto switch off
Removable crumb tray, baking pan and wire racking
[nice slide-out action linked to drop-front glass door]

230/120V (1200WATTS)
[silica-tube element top & bottom, dual voltage claim
makes me suspect 120V elements but I didn't notice
a voltage select switch: rating label reads 1300W]
