Cooks great, fast to heat up. I wish it would remember the last setting each time when you turn it on. I have to scroll down to bake each time. Also it is harder to remove the tray compared to my last "B" model, since it doesn't have a magnetpening. The hooks get stuck.
The stainless steel exterior makes the Cusinart a classy appliance that deserves a space on my counter. The quartz heating tubes heat the oven fast and provides even heating. The pull out crumb tray makes cleaning easy. For my family, it is much faster to use the Cusinart than to heat up my conventional oven.
On the down side, the outside of the oven gets very hot, to the point of being concerned about burns. Better insulation would be a big plus.
I also read many reviews that noted the labels on the buttons wore off, so I didn't take any chances and put tape over mine from the start.
i LOVE this appliance. somebody really took EVERYTHING into consideration in its design. i love the fact that it toasts breads evenly, that i can get a 9 x 13 pan in it, that i can broil to perfection and that crumb tray just slides out for quick clean ups. My old toaster over did not do these tricks! seriously, i researched SEVERAL toaster/convection ovens before i purchased this one, but i feel i made a brilliant choice.
I bought this after reading reviews that it was not only a great counter top oven, but it was the best air fryer. I was really looking for an air fryer, but after reading the reviews I decided to buy this over because of its versatility (and it looks great!). I have not been disappointed. It has so many options and is large enough to cook many things that I no longer have to heat up my larger range over. I would highly recommend it! (I have not ye5 used the pizza stone, but am looking forward to doing so.).
Sleek, modern looking kitchen item that pairs well with other Cuisinart products nearby. Most importantly: Delivers as promised with regards to cooking, heating, baking, etc..
The oven worked properly however the door would not close and allowed heat and steam to escape. We had to mail it back which was a real hassle. This has been reported by many other buyers over a long time and is still a problem. We will not buy another one!
