The lever you pushed down to start the toasting would not stay down.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fire hazard. Do NOT buy!

This deserves negative stars. It's a dangerous fire hazard. Don't buy. We used this toaster at our time share and put crumpets in on the lowest time setting. The edges on one end of each burnt.
Then, we put two more crumpets in and within 30 secs the toaster caught fire.
The toaster is new, there were no crumbs in it at all. This toaster just gets way too hot very fast. We are just lucky my MIL was standing right there watching the toaster and the place didn't burn down.
Do NOT buy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This toaster replaced an older Cuisinart of the same exact style. The older model still worked, but didn’t toast as fast as when it was new, and the heating coils were coated with food residue making the heating uneven. We had the older model for at least 12 years, thus I felt I could trust Cuisinart to make a reliable appliance. The new model looks great, has an easier to read darkness dial and it toasts great. We are very pleased with our replacement choice.

Simple to use. Clean look and leaves the toast perfect.

Its ok. Manual is sparse as to what buttons like “bagel” do. Seems to toast one side of the bread more than the other. Sliding the bread closer to the center of the toaster helps slightly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love the features on this 2 slice compact toaster; especially the defrost option. This works great for frozen waffles. I also like the bagel option; it toasts the bagel perfectly without burning it. I would highly recommend this product.

Great toaster, matched the other kitchen appliances. I really like the ease of pushing the lever down, it just slides down and locks, unlike the previous one that wobbled and had to be held down and operated with two hands.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not what I expected

We have had this toaster for a year. It does not toast evenly. The top will burn and the bottom is not toasted. One side is done, the other not. We won’t be buying Cuisinart again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are sorry to hear your toaster has not performed as expected and understand how frustrating uneven toasting can be. Sometimes adjusting the placement of the bread or testing different settings can help achieve a more consistent result, though we understand this may not fully resolve the issue. Our Consumer Assistance team is available to provide additional guidance or discuss options at 1-800-726-0190.
