Again for our UK readers...
Found this forum, a follow-up to the Elektor toaster-oven
controller article, which includes temperature profile
measurements on an Argos Hinari oven.
There is also mention of some success using a _toaster_
on its side (no, you don't pop-out the cooked board ;-)

Compared to the Wilko Sabichi, the Hinari is smaller,
which may be good for its max temperature and has
its controls (timer & one-two element switch but no
thermostat) underneath rather than RHS, which might
be better if you want to make a conveyor oven.
OTOH it costs twice as much as the Wilko sale price.
Having seen the Wilko one - though only a picture of the
Argos one - I'm more attracted by the Wilko Sabichi.
If one uses triac phase control it won't matter much if
the elements turn out to be 2x120V in series and could
even allow some over-running, though a power limiting
protection circuit might be advisable.
