I have loved Cuisinart products for a long time, so I always expect high performance from them. This guy is a pretty basic toaster oven. Seems accurate in temp and it is easy to operate--without a ton of extras I don't need. I like the size as well, just as big as it needs to be. The one drawback are the arrows or pointers on the selector knobs. It requires braille to make your selection. One has to "feel" the bump on the knob to make your selection for temp or mode, etc. Otherwise one only has black on black to go on. I am a painter so I will paint the bumps white in order to simplify my selections. I have the same problem with other little appliances as well. How difficult can it be to paint the bump so it pops or apply a thin metal arrow onto the knob? Hope somebody at C'art sees this.
I had a cuisinart toaster oven that lasted me many years. It didn’t owe me anything. I loved it and when it broke recently I ordered another one. I also have had several of their coffee pots. Some single serve and some that had the 12 cup carafe pot. All good products. I will continue to use their products in the future.
My 10-year-old one was looking a little worn, though still working fine. This is such a great product that I splurged and ordered another of the exact same model. Fits perfectly in our small kitchen. Use for toast, broiling, baking, and reheating. Cleaned up my 2014 one and passed it on to a grateful friend.
