Decent replacement for old Cuisinart toaster oven

I agree with several of the prior reviews but I still bought this model. It is not the most intuitive model but now that we’ve had a chance to use it I think it’s great. And it looks better than my old white model. I agree the tray is a little bit flimsier than the old model’s tray but do far it has cleaned up well. The little rack that fits on the tray is flimsy but I’ve used it a few times and it washed up well and did the job reheating. I have silicone sheets I cut to line the tray which makes cleanup easy and keeps the tray cleaner. A big improvement is the crumb tray can be removed from the front vs the back which was annoying with the old model. Even my husband cleans it once in a while now.
I agree the tinted glass forces you to open the door to check on the food’s progress but now that we’ve figured out what’s setting to use for which kind of bread, I’m not opening the door to check my food as often. Although I have to say I had a few burnt edges before I got the hang of the setting.
I don’t mind that when baking an item it automatically sets the timer for you, but it’s easy enough to add more time during cooking and to add the convection option. I think the old model has a stronger fan but it’s still not a deal breaker.
I also don’t mind the twist dial to navigate around settings or to change the darkness, etc. The Old toaster had push buttons that eventually cracked. But that machine worked like a champ for many years. I took it to the shed at our dump and someone grabbed it so I think it’s still being used, LOL.
Will this model last as long? The jury is still out but I think it’ll last for a decent amount of time.

Flawed or defective - brew feature lost its mind

6 months in the brew function went bazonka. Either stopped midway through a brew or stopped then randomly started. I cleaned the machine regularly which was CS's suggestion, but re-cleaning it did nothing to help. I was handled awkwardly by CS but eventually received a replacement. We will see how well that works.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this because my wife always complained about heating up the kitchen whenever she used our regular oven. This has solved that problem. It is big enough to bake most of the items that require an oven, and it takes up only a little more space than our 4 slice toaster.

Toasts bread, muffins, and bagels quickly and evenly. Bakes and Re-heats just as well. Much better than throwing food in the microwave. For my wife and I it is perfect.

I like the very precise controls and settings. I can even select my shade if toast or bagel. Much easier and cooler than using my conventional oven!

Excellent coffee maker. In particular I like the option that allows the coffee to stay hot for 4 hours as opposed to other brands that are a maximum for up to 3 hours.
