FlashXpress Toaster Oven Countertop, 4-Slice Small Toaster Oven Compact Size with Double Infrared Heating, 6 Auto Cook Options and Precise Temperature Control, 1300W - NB-G110P (Silver)

I absolutely LOVE my new FlashXpress! It replaces my old FlashXpress which was 5 years old. It still worked but everything was taking longer. The new one is terrific - great toast, frozen dinners, baked and oven fried potatoes, reheating pizza, toasting bagels and frozen waffles. I use it 2 or 3 times a day so I'm amazed the old one was still working after 5 years. I waited until they went on sale. My only (minor) complaint is the little ledge that collects crumbs but cleaning that is a small inconvenience. I considered a Breville but was put off by the higher power and the reports of how hot it got. This panasonic has enough power for my purposes.

I had the "old model" of this oven for around 5-years or so. I broke one of the infrared bulbs (while cleaning it) last week. Fortunately I found out that they have started to make this oven again. They had stopped (or at least stopped importing them) when I checked a couple of years ago for a friend of mine who wanted one. But this "new model" is exactly the same as my "old" one except the name on a couple of buttons has changed, and also it's now silver instead of white. Frist, let me just say what this toaster oven is NOT. . .It is NOT a replacement for a "traditional" oven. If you're looking for something of that sort, then I highly recommend you check out one of the Breville or Black & Decker models. This Panasonic toaster oven will NOT cook a chicken. . or bake an 8" pie.. . or bake a cake. But what it does. . .it does VERY well. This oven works by infrared light. You can Google to find out exactly how this works, if you want the specifics. Because of this, there is no pre-heating required. The lights will turn on-and-off while the oven is in operation. This can be a little "confusing" when you start to use it, but you'll get used to it. This oven works WONDERFULLY for the following items: * Toast - using whatever bread you like. . . however thick you like * Toasting bagels or English muffins * Heating pastries or croissants * Baking biscuits (Pillsbury frozen buttermilk biscuits are my favorite) * Heating frozen appetizers such as breaded cheese sticks, chicken fingers, etc. * Pizza - reheating or baking. Either a small whole pizza or a slice of a large pizza * Frozen garlic bread * Cookies Though the guide says that you can bake cakes and pies in it. . . I've tried, and it didn't work for me. If you're baking small tarts which are perhaps a half-inch thick. . .or a cake where it's no more than ½ inch thick.. .then perhaps you could get it to work. . but again. . . this is not like a "traditional" oven, so I think if you're going to bake such things, then you would be much better off using a "traditional" oven. It's wonderful that there is no pre-heating. I put frozen biscuits in, and 20-minutes later they are just perfect. The oven has some preset buttons on the front where you can also choose from "light" (shorter cooking time) to "dark" (longer cooking time). . . or. . . you can choose the temperature and length of cooking you would like, up to 25-minutes. The pan that comes with the oven is 9-inches square. This is certainly the maximum size for the oven. You will learn by trial-and-error what works best with this oven. But after having one for around 5-years, I can HIGHLY recommend it. I have never seen a toaster oven which works like this. . .which has pre-set buttons. . .which doesn't require pre-heating. . . . and does such a fantastic job. It's hard to believe that I get so excited about such an item. . .but this is one of those rare occasions where something just works well. . . REALLY REALLY well. P.S. If you are not using the preset buttons, this toaster oven has a timer up to 25-minutes. If you press the "up" arrow to increase the time, it goes in 30-second intervals up to ten-minutes, and then it goes by 1-min intervals. If you want to bake something on the "higher-end" of the timer, then use the "down arrow" to start with and it will go from 25-minutes backwards.

UPDATE: 4/16/24 (Initial review was for toaster purchased in 2016) Eight years after my initial purchase, and I still love this toaster oven and am as enthusiastic about all its features as before. I would not change a single thing: the shape, size, toasting ability, reheating ability, etc. Its footprint is perfect for a slim counter on one side of our oven. Since 2016, I’ve checked out other peoples toaster ovens and aesthetically, I still like this one best. It easily toasts lots of bread or frozen waffles at once, but when not in use it blends in with the background. Perfect. Anyway, I just unboxed the replacement for the one purchased in 2016. I had to replace it because the two legs on right side eventually fell off. I think its because I stuck a cork heat mat under it to protect the counter, and the right side of the oven slide off and was pushed back onto it so much over the past 8 years that the legs eventually started to loosen. There is no way to screw them back on. So I blame this on user error; the design of the oven is fine. Note: I would not have decided to replace the oven - which still looks great inside and still pretty new looking on the outside - otherwise. However, once the second leg fell off the oven was imbalanced enough that the oven door no longer fully closed. I decided to update my review in order to highlight where things stand in 2024, 8 years after my first purchase. NOTHING appears to have changed since 2016 other than the long number shown on bottom (serial number?). The pamphlet is dated from 2012; the limited warranty is “as of July 2013.” I purchased silver again which looks nice in its location near out stainless fridge. The size and every single features is identical to our 2016 one. The toaster oven is made in China. There is a sticker on the outside of the shipping box warning of the presence of PFAS somewhere on the product. My guess is that this refers to the reheating/cooking tray that’s included with the oven. I don’t remember seeing this before. The main difference between my 2016 experience and this 2024 purchase? I just read the instruction pamphlet provided with this new purchase, something I skipped last time. As a result, I’ve discovered that I missed out using the 5 built-in reheat buttons that are included on the oven! (I reheat A LOT of things in the oven, but I always made guesses at the temp to use, etc.) Long story short, still love it, I still find it reasonably priced (only paid about $15 more in 2024), PLUS my son requested one when he moved out a year ago and loves his! (I think he heats frozen breaded chicken fingers in his.) Original post: This is the best toaster oven I've ever owned. Period. And over the course of 30 years I've owned just about every imaginable kind of toaster oven - and toaster oven combo (usually with convection feature). As I've gotten older I've really gravitated toward the pricey ones that aren't "just" a toaster. The last one I bought was a highly rated Cusinart stainless convection Combo that cost well over $300. I ended up giving it away after a year even though it was barely used. It was too big, too complicated to simply toast, took up too much room on my counter---and while it did lots of things well, the toasting could have been better. That's when I realized that I was too enamored with finding a toaster oven that did MORE than toast....yet the ones that did MORE tended to be very big & bulky & complicated, and simple toasting was a hassle. Then I read about this Panisonic while reading many online lists of "top ten 10 toaster ovens for 2016-2017". The description on the Panasonic stood out because it really is just a simple oven with simple intuitive buttons, but it can easily and accurately toast six slices of bread at once. Ultimately, that appealed over everything else. Simplicity, usefulness, large enough to toast 6 slices at once but doesn't use up too much counter space. So....I've had it about 5 months and it is the second most used appliance in our home after our microwave (which is the kids favorite appliance.). I am thrilled. One other thing? It's a slightly different shape than a traditional toaster over -- square shaped instead of long and boxy. The shape seems more logical for some reason, fits much better on our counter, and the toast seems easier to get to.

This review is just a quick account of my very positive experience with the Panasonic NB-G110P Flash Xpress Toaster Oven. The 4 stars is not 5 just because I don't want the manufacturer to be demotivated. Though we've been married 30 years and the kids are grown and gone, my wife and I bought our first ever toaster oven last Christmas. As is my habit I researched options fairly extensively before purchasing. Our needs were well defined so it was a matter of finding a clear match for those needs in the form of a good quality, highly-regarded and reasonably priced unit. Our list of desired features in a toaster oven was pretty short: Tray pulls out when the door opens Inside light Timer with automatic shut off Easy to clean, Teflon? Fast pre-heat $100 to $150 tops My primary goal was to reduce our dependence on the microwave for re-heating food, with a secondary goal of making toast and heating rolls and bagels, etc. Though initially tempted by larger, "countertop ovens" I realized that because our kitchen oven is a double, such a thing would be redundant. Happily this knocked a pretty large product segment out of contention, which was good because among such appliances I was having a difficult time finding a unit that had an encouraging ratio of good to bad reviews. Not to mention the size---I browsed a few at Walmart and was appalled at the size and weight of these things! I also changed my mind on the Teflon/easy clean feature, as the unit would be used primarily by two fairly responsible adults who are getting increasingly fastidious in their advancing years. To make a long story short, once I settled on the short list of units that fit our requirements I started perusing the reviews and found that this little Panasonic is one of the only toaster ovens that has a kind of fan base. Owners seemed to really have an affection for their little kitchen helper. So I bought one. My first impression was good. It's small and lightweight. It's not a dazzling great looker, but neither is it ugly. It has a sensible balance between task specific buttons and programmable settings. It has an easy to read digital display and a user interface that is simple and intuitive. It makes excellent toast, crisp on the outside, soft and warm on in the inside. And it really does pre-heat quickly. In short this little guy does exactly what it claims to do and it does it well. If I had to sum up this machine in one word, that word would be "sensible". And lo and behold we are starting to develop an affection for it. We have the habit of giving some of our machines pet names---our cars, my motorcycles. We're starting to think this little guy may get a name too!

Love it! Love it! Love it! (Did I say I love it?). I want another one. Just in case mine quits working or Panasonic quits making it. This little oven is SO versatile. You can make or re-heat lots of foods in this little gem. I HIGHLY recommend this product. Especially, it is SO good at re-heating. Works great to re-heat the fast foods from places like McDonald’s. I use the quick re-heat to get those fries I ordered, and brought home, nice and crispy like I like them. The toaster feature gets your bread toasted to perfection. (4 slices at a time. I use farm home made bread. Nice thick slices…). I love the way it can bake. Everything comes out perfectly! My only problems with this oven are the size; (It can only do single servings.) and the temperature slide for baking leaves out some of the mostly used popular settings. i.e. 395… 425. No “400”. You can only pick 395 or 425, nothing in-between. That’s a bummer, but I work around it. I use this little oven constantly. The waffle button works perfectly for Eggos and the type. I like the thicker ones and it works great for that as well. I just up the temp one setting for the thicker waffles. I highly recommend this oven. You will enjoy using the pre-sets as they can be tweaked for temp and level of “doneness”. I just wish that Panasonic would make a larger version, so that when my friend comes over, I can do two portions, or a nice 12-inch pizza.

I am giving this one star because no one reads 3 star reviews - most important, no one at Panasonic would read a 3 star review. Occasionally a company will look at a 1 star review, though I doubt Panasonic will; they are too big. Their help pages are worse than useless, so here I am. What I really like: I love that it has a light inside. I like that the tray automatically comes out when you open the door. I like that it is very fast. I like that it is small. I have a tiny kitchen and do not believe (as it seems most fellow Americans do) that bigger is better. Everything from pickups, to gas station sodas, to toaster ovens just get bigger and bigger. I like that it toasts evenly. What I hate: First and foremost, I am speechless that there are not simple choices for "bake" and "broil". The choices are all for processed foods from the frozen food isle. I am 70, and have never in my life eaten a frozen waffle or frozen hash browns! Frozen pizzas are nasty. How on earth is there a choice for "roll"? How does your little oven know what kind of rolls I made? Big? Small? Sweet? Dinner rolls? Ridiculous. How do I divine what button to push? Is my thing more similar to a chicken leg, frozen hash browns, or an individual frozen pizza? What if I am heating up apple cobbler? I tried to simply set a temperature and time so I could heat up something, and after setting the temp, it wouldn't set the time - and it broiled, not baked. If I could figure out the damn thing, I wouldn't have such a hard time deciding whether or not to keep it. My only other choice for a small one is a cheap piece of junk from Bi-Mart. So, in response to the list of review ideas below: Functionality - meh. Control options -- really, really suck. Durability - don't know. Noise level - none. Value - ?? Quality - seems good.

I wanted a toaster oven to avoid using our big oven for small items . Searching for one that fit into our crowded counter space, this one was one of the smallest and not that expensive. I read all the manufacturer's information, watched their videos, and read many of the 1 and 2 star reviews before I decided to get one 6 weeks ago. Pluses: small foot print, no preheat, simple controls, and speedy toasting. When it came I read all the instructions and info on cooking various things in it. Then I kept a record of my experiments. No cookbook included, just cooking guides. Looked online for recipes for this oven, found a few and printed them out. After using it a while I learned a lot. Watch carefully as your food browns, it will go very fast once browning starts. Be prepared to experiment: making a personal 7" or smaller pizza is easy. Roasting peppers is easy too. If the food is not cooked enough, put it back in and heat it some more. Line the oven tray with non-stick aluminum foil. Do not put anything that will drip onto the grid, use the oven tray or heat resistant cookware (metal or ceramic). I collected recipes and took notes. One recipe for roasted party potatoes takes 40 to 50 minutes in the big range oven. In this oven it took 25 minutes, saving a lot of power and heating up the kitchen. Controls are very simple to use. Bread toasts perfectly. Whole wheat bread takes the #4 setting. White bread the middle #3. Easy to try again if not as dark as you want, just be prepared to hit the power button to turn it off as soon as you have what you want. One reviewer did not like this oven because the door does not seal!!! Look at the door, it is made to have a gap so it will vent. ALL OVENS VENT. Your large kitchen oven vents, probably through one of the burners. They have to vent or they will fill with steam and vapors and odors. Super easy to remove the grid to clean it off, read the directions. Crumb tray easy to remove to clean off. After using this oven for a week I did what I should have done at the start -- I looked online for reviews. I found a number of sites that rated this as the #1 toaster oven of 2020. Many rated it in the top 5 or top 10 of all toaster ovens rated. Con: you cannot cook food that oils or greases come out of, like steaks or bacon, unless it is wrapped in foil. The infrared lamps might ignite the hot oil that collects on the tray. You cannot use anything flammable like parchment paper (unless it is trimmed so the paper is not exposed to the radiant heat. I prepared a recipe for frozen home fries that is intended to be cooked in a skillet. They cooked crisp like French fries and took as long as it did in a skilled. Frozen French fries are great cooked in this oven. Corn tortilla chips should not be heated, they might ignite as they are dry and thin. Toasting biscuits or similar items is a snap. Bagels, flat breads, pizza crusts. Note: I wanted to use a small Pyrex dish I have in this oven, but the cautions on the package cautioned against toaster ovens. Called Corning about this IR lamp oven, they do not recommend using Pyrex in it as they have no experience with this type oven. Note: Since around 2000, Pyrex glassware is no longer heat resistant anymore. It is not the original borosilicate glass that Pyrex has been made from for the last century. Pyres is now soda lime glass, like regular common glassware, and not meant for hot ovens. I bought some small vintage Corning Visions cookware that fit in the oven. I can also use my vintage Corning Pyroceram cookware. I love this toaster oven, it is perfect for our needs. Quick and simple. Keep notes on the temperature and time settings you use until you get a good feel for different recipes. I prepare my 7" pizza crusts with pizza sauce, toppings (putting soft or cooked things first, then raw veggies & mushrooms on top. Cook at 425F for 5 minutes. Remove tray and top with cheese. Then cook at 425F for 4 to 5 more minutes. Mozzarella melts beautifully and starts to get toasty brown. Just don't leave during the last several minutes - watch carefully and be ready to hit the power button. One of the best purchases I've ever made. Love this oven. Oh, don't put your hand in the oven while the flash lamps ore on - the radiant infrared will burn you instantly. I know this from working with infrared lamps in an R&D lab. Turn off the oven before you reach inside.

First of all, let me say that I hate crappy products. If a product doesn't perform as expected or as promised, it's returned in a heartbeat. I've owned dozens of toaster ovens and recently needed to replace one, a Black & Decker older model, that lasted for well over a decade. The thing still worked, but the handle fell off and then ultimately the toaster function stopped working. But for the number of years of service I got from it, it owed me nothing. Looking to replace it, I first tried a Breville, which is a highly regarded brand. It disappointed. Horrible at toasting, something that you think would be the easiest function for a toaster oven. Next I try to brand that I didn't know but took a chance on because it had decent reviews, a Gourmia. A good looking unit, but with ridiculously polished knobs that if your fingers had any moisture on them whatsoever from cooking, which is common, you are actually unable to turn them on or off. In addition, it had the three rack positions that you had to change depending upon what you needed to do which is a pain. What's more, like the Breville, it was horrible at toasting. If you're interested you can see my review for that unit here on Amazon. Finally I took the chance on this Panasonic Flash Express. It was very highly reviewed not just here on Amazon, but in other review publications. I don't know why I didn't go with this one first, but I'll tell you what, this thing is unbelievable. So much that I bought one for my mother for her birthday. She loves it when she's a total skeptic. Don't be fooled with how lightweight it is when you take it out of the box. This thing is so ridiculously fast it's almost is as quick as a microwave oven. It heats instantly. It has two types of infrared tubes inside. One of them, when it works, illuminates the entire inside of the oven. This serves a secondary function because it allows you to see the progress of your cooking. The light does not stay on, because it's primary function is a heating element so it switches on and off in order to maintain temperature. There is a like button which you can press which will temporarily turn it on for a peek inside. The other tube is a larger tube, a different type of infrared, which also heats ridiculously fast. The two work in concert to produce the fastest toaster oven I've ever experienced in my life. The buttons are easy to use. It gives a nice warning tone at the end. Two and a half minutes for two slices of toast beautifully done. Frozen pizza in just a few minutes. It's unbelievable. I can't say enough about it. If you hate crappy products as much as I do and you're looking for a new toaster oven, stop messing around with all the others. Just get this one. You'll be as impressed as I am. A+++ highly recommended.
