[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this model because we stupidly bought a house with no oven. We had the unit from about 2012. Now in 2026, after handmade cookies, handmade pizzas, whole chickens, short half hams, this machine has done it's job. The cord is now getting hot which is a concern but definitely had a long productive life. I'd buy another but cannot find one.
I love the product but white plastic is impossible to clean. So sorry I got the white

We’re glad to hear you love the performance of the coffeemaker, though we understand how challenging it can be to maintain the appearance of white surfaces. For easier cleaning, we recommend wiping regularly with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and avoiding staining substances sitting on the surface for extended periods. Thank you for sharing your feedback, as it helps us improve future models and offerings.
This is our 3rd purchase of this product over a 20 year period. It replaced one that had served us well for many years but, while still working, started looking and acting tired so time for a new one. We use it almost every day for toast, bagels, cooking salmon, warming certain meals saved in the freezer when better suited for baking rather than microwave like chicken and pork cutlets.
I've used a Cuisinart 12 cup for 20 years and it worked very well, turning out many fresh brews without problem. I finally damaged it by accident and needed a replacement. So I purchased another of the same item that had served me so reliably for so long.
This is my second purchase of this oven - one for home-home and this latest, for vacation home. It’s perfect for baking, broiling, toasting … it does it all. No need to turn on your oven. I do not use the convection function; we have the same on our oven but I’d rather stay with what I’m comfortable with. Also, I like kitchen counters relatively bare and this doesn’t take up much space and it has a good look.
