It worked amazing for a couple years! Then the digital screen broke and bricked the whole thing. Cuisinart replaced it under warranty - but then the same thing happened to our replacement. So I learned Cuisinart makes defective products and doesn’t expect them to last more than a couple of years (insane for a several hundred dollar appliance)
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very pleased with the purchase. Love the larger capacity and digital features versus the TOA-70 that we have had. It will take a while to utilize many of the features, but for now, we are happy with this product.
Fairly easy to use, but definitely has a learning curve in order get the best results. It takes some time to understand which shelf you should use based on the type of food, etc.. The volume of the tone could be increased considerably as well as the light staying on duration.
Great unit. Heats fast. A little learning curve, but once we got all is well. We tossed a toaster and microwave oven for the Cuisinart. We’ve now successfully tried all functions. Wouldn’t go back to anything else.
We have worn out several toaster ovens. We decided to invest in quality and bought a high end Cuisinart and are glad we did. Better design, better performance and better materials make this oven worth it. The term air fryer is a misnomer. It really is a high temp convection oven that does that task very well.
checked out some online "Best air fryers" lists and this was included in several articles. Still learning the numerous features but so far works wonders. I am looking forward to NOT heating the large electric oven just to cook 2 pork chops, small meatloaf etc. you get the idea! Tried air frying for first time and was quite impressed with the results.Just make sure it fits on the counter under cabinets. know that the top gets hot so allow for air flow on all sides. That being said, I recommend this product
