This sleek-looking toaster performs very well. Bread is toasted evenly and uniformly across a selectable range of settings. The settings count down to indicate the progress of the toasting process. Additional attractive features are a bagel setting that toasts the cut surface more than the outside, a “30+” setting that adds some incremental time to the toasting cycle, and the ability to lift the toast for inspection without interrupting the toasting cycle. A well thought-out design.
It toast bread and bagel nicely. Do not recommend this product for waffles. Does not brown both sides & have to flip it and do two cycles and still not like we like them.
Can't help but love this toaster! It has settings for everyone's taste & everything you can put in a toaster. The fact that you can raise the item to check without interfering with the cycle is a plus; there is a 30 second button for additional increments in the cycle; doesn't matter which side you put 1 slice of bread or other item, just push the 'single' button. Also appreciate that there is a countdown so you know when the toaster will be popping up a perfectly finished piece of toast. Hands down the best toaster ever.
I considered many other brands and models before I bought my Cuisinart toaster. This is the best 2 slice model on the market; it does toast to perfection. I love the sleek look and the touch screen controls. I used to keep my old toaster in a cupboard, but this stays out because it looks gorgeous on my counter! It's truly a winner!
Great toaster, very stylish especially with the digital touch settings. Looks great in the kitchen and the toasting system is phenomenal. Easy operation. Very easy to clean the removable crumb tray. My older toaster was a nightmare, it never worked correctly, and was not a Cuisinart product. If you need a toaster, I highly recommend this one, it’s a superb kitchen appliance.
For years I chose not to purchase a toaster, partly because it was another appliance taking up space in my small kitchen. But, after complaints from family and friends, I decided to buy one. I love this fairly compact, very attractive toaster! And, I am so impressed by all the features it displays only when turned on! And I especially love the way it browns/toasts bread and bagels. I prefer my breads lightly browned outside but not in the middle. And, I am a big fan of all Cuisinart products.
