Disappointing, as I own a variety of Cuisinart products ( coffee maker, pots and pans). The top of the oven and the door get very, very hot when in use. Hot enough to burn your hand. Also, the oven tips forward when you open the door to remove the toast.
I love our new cuisinart toaster oven. it has a safe feature that shuts off when you forget it to turn it off. It also has different functions from toasting to baking and also has 2 baking tiers.
Excellent classic toaster oven. Works well and heats evenly. This replaced the same (but older ) model and is improved from the previous one. So far, very happy with this purchase.
I’m 82 and, honestly, I believe it is the best appliance I’ve ever owned! It does absolutely everything my standard sized oven does - it broils, toasts, and easily bakes cookies and casseroles. It reaches pre-heat temps much faster and probably more economically. It takes up only a small amount of counter space and its low price was amazing! I couldn’t be happier! Thank you, Cuisinart! J.

Heats up quickly, great size for counter top. Would have given it a 5 star rating except for the dials. I can't read them, barely with my reading glasses and must have a bright light shining on the dial to see anything. I'm tempted to sell it and buy a better brand that i can read.
