Purchased this to replace a smaller toaster oven(not Cuisinart). Previously having bought two Cuisinart food processors(which I am very happy with) decided to upgrade to a new bigger toaster oven. The door was somewhat off kilter, but having bought it online I didn't want to go through the hassle of returning it. Also, there is no timer(other than the toast setting) , so I use the timer on my microwave. Toast comes out well but keep it on a low-med setting. Also, the tray is made of a metal which is hard to clean, even after lining it with foil. I do like the convenience of a front pull-out crumb tray!
I bought this toaster/oven a few months ago and am very happy with the purchase. I did not realize until I unpacked it that it does not have a timer. But decided I use a clip on timer (so I can walk away and still hear it) for my large oven and everything else I have to remember so it was no big deal after all. Love it. So does my husband!
Should have bought the more expensive model of this brand. The buzzer is very loud. The brand is good. I owned a more expensive model for years. The element cracked in the old one I had.
I got this about a month ago, still trying to figure it out. It toasts good, bakes good, but cannot figure out the pan that came with it. Doesn't fit on the rack, door won't close, have to take rack out and then use it but picture shows both.
This is a very nice oven. However, the rack positions are not that great- either too high or too low. Also, the raised pointer on the knobs is very hard to see. I used some white paint to paint the top of the pointer so it can be seen more easily. Still, overall a very nice toaster oven.
Not sure I am a complete fan of this toaster. First time I heard the beep at end of toasting, I thought I had set off the smoke alarm. We really put it to the test with family from Europe who wanted bagels every morning. We have had it a month - I'm still trying to like it.
