Can I heat tv dinners in my new toaster oven - Kenmore Toaster Ovens

A faulty thermostat or temperature sensor could be the cause of your Oster toaster oven's heating element not turning off when ready. You can try the following steps to fix the problem:

• Check the settings for the temperature control: Check to see that the thermostat is not set too high. The heating element may not turn off even when the desired temperature is reached if it is set too high.
• Get the toaster oven clean: Check to see that the toaster oven is clean and free of obstructions. The heating element may occasionally malfunction due to dirt and debris. You can get oven cleaner, https://amzn.to/3xlDd86 .
• Check the temperature: The thermostat or temperature sensor may be defective if the problem persists. To fix the problem, you might need to buy a new thermostat or temperature sensor.
• Contact Oster's support team: You can get assistance from Oster customer service if the problem persists after attempting the steps listed above. They might be able to offer you a solution or point you in the direction of a repair company.

I was unable to locate the replacement heating elements for your toaster oven. These parts do not appear to be available. Probably buting a new toaster oven is your best bet.

I received a new euro-pro ritisserie convection oven for Christmas and I just love it, but, the heat bars stopped heating. I miss it so much and don,t know what to do to fix it. Barb Tyrley

Buy a new toaster. Very cheap appliance.

your heating element has gone bad or there is some bad wiring in the oven itself

to check open up the toaster oven and look at the wires coming from the heating elements inside to the timer on the front panel if there is no bad wiring then the heating elements are bad and the toaster oven needs to be replaced

Mine just broke too - it won't heat - everything else works - lights, timer ect. but no heat can't cook
without it - love my oven - any solutions ( I guess it's the heating element ) Hope I can get a new one.

the part (element) cannot be bought , its connectors are welded into place ........ if you realy love your oven , you can get one by shopping in a goodwill store for a used oven and cut the element out and cut and weld the element into your oven ........ this does work ,i have done it

I think this is a common problem with these kind of toaster ovens. Mine isn't a Toastmaster - mine is Cook's Essentials (from QVC), and my upper elements have also warped and split, although mine are curved downwards.

I had the same problem, and replaced the thermal fuse, (that suspiciously went out shortly after the warranty expired). Since then, it's been going strong for the last couple months. The fuse itself is $2-$5 but will require time, tools and patience. Here are some links:
