I have only used this maybe 10 times and the writing on the panel is already coming off and hard to read the control buttons! The coating on the tray pan is peeling off after 10 washes! I have an old Cuisinart that still works better than this one! Not that happy with the convection oven it does not crisp foods up like the old one? Very disappointed in this oven and I payed more for this one than than I payed for the old one!:(
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Basically a decent little toaster oven that handles my needs adequately, though it does cook a bit unevenly. It's very quiet with the convection fan running. My biggest problem is with the settings. I'm never sure when to use the "start" button. Usually when I push the "start" button it cancels everything making it necessary to start over with the settings. It seems that I'm constantly referring to the instruction manual. I just think think that the settings procedures could be simplified.

We really enjoy this toaster oven. Cooks evenly and we use it as a mini oven for thinks like chicken nuggets, etc. excellent reheat- takes no time at all! (Less time than you expect, so stay alert)The few negatives: 1. If you make toast, and the oven is “cold” it takes several cycles to get desired done-ness. If the toaster is already warm, and you pop in more bread, it only takes 1cycle to get to desired brownness. The toast presets are very consistent and it’s the same every time. 2. The words on the buttons are already wearing away. It’s end of March and we got end of December, so that’s not really cool.

Just bought it, can’t set clock

Bought yesterday. Followed instructions to set clock and have gibberish- you can see multiple digits on top of each other. Your guess is as good as mine as to why.

Thanks for your comments about the 12-Cup Classic Coffee Maker. When beginning to set the clock, please make sure that you remove the piece of plastic cling film that comes over the screen. This can sometimes make it appear as there are over-lapping digits. If you are still having difficulty, our Consumer Assistance Team is ready and waiting to help! You can reach them at 1-800-726-0190.

The first one I received had a problem with the oven controls - could not set either temperature nor time. The second could only move temp and time up from pre-set levels not down.

Not fond of this purchase. All other cuisinart purchases have been fine but not this one. Coffee pot turns on and off arbitrarily. We have to unplug it when not in use so it doesn’t turn on and cause a fire. Would try another as I’ve only purchased cuisinarts
