We replaced our Breville oven with the Chefs Convection oven after many years of good service from the Breville product. When looking to buy a replacement we saw somewhat better ratings on the Cuisinart Chefs Convection and was about the same price as the Breville. The Cuisinart also had more features (more like a full sized oven) and had considerably larger internal space than the Breville. It does take a little more counter space, but not enough to make a difference for us. So far we have really enjoyed the oven and it performs better than expected.
The convection oven I purchased was perfect from every point of view. What made the experience a 5 + star was the people who helped me with a warranty issue. They were amazing, helpful, responsive and turned me into a Cuisinart raving fan. Thank you for standing behind your promises.
After way too much research, I finally settled on the Cuisinart Chef’s Convection Toaster Oven. Upon setting up the first toaster oven that I received, I baked a meatloaf in it and noticed steam coming out the right side of the oven door. Closer inspection made it clear that the door did not close properly, thereby constantly releasing heat resulting in higher energy usage. This was unacceptable to me, so I sent it back and reordered the same oven thinking surely that was a fluke. Apparently it's not a fluke, as it was the exact same case with the second oven that arrived. This one didn't even make it out of the box since I could clearly see right down the top of the oven door that it was also slightly ajar on the right hand side. Totally ridiculous that these are how Cuisinart ovens are being shipped out to customers. I ditched Cuisinart altogether and chose a different brand and have been happily baking in it for several weeks now.
I love this oven, makes me want to cook again. It's fast, hot, easy to use and to clean. Controls are easy and intuitive. It lacks only two things: first, I wish it had a 3-prong grounded plug.; second, I wish the door had a proper seal instead of being metal to metal, which lets both heat and smoke escape in certain circumstances. But it does work well as an air fryer, even though it was designed before air fryers.
