We originally bought this toaster oven due to its relatively small size, combination of features, and the Cuisinart reputation for quality products. Unfortunately we were very disappointed in the product, its been less than 2 years and we are on our second warranty replacement. Once this one konks out I don't think we'll buy another.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We go to Florida for 3 months and I wanted to bring a toaster oven this time, I shopped around and purchased the same one I have now. I use it everyday for the 2 of us. It fits a pie plate or 8x8 baking dish, actually fits 2 if you use the 2 racks. I made 18 meatballs in it yesterday and I cook all my fish on the baking sheet. All the others I looked at were too big or too small. I kitty corner it and it fits nicely. My only feedback is the toaster alarm still makes me jump, as it sounds like the fire alarm.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Got a cuisinart Custom classic toaster oven, and it's great except.....I think the top tray is too close to the top surface of the oven. Makes my feel like there's not enough room for anything that is remotely tall....and there isn't! So....tray out and use the bottom solid tray, can't put the other tray on top, because it's too wide to fit....So that is a feature that I definitely don't like

I gave it two stars for quality of components and performance. The biggest issue is that it is hard to read the markings on the dial without literally getting nose to nose with the device and a flashlight. I am 68 and bought this for my husband and I. You need to make the dials readable! I almost returned it for that alone. Just not good engineering here and definitely not user friendly. Also, we cannot detect any way to know that the oven temperature that you set with the dial has been reached. I like to put my items in to bake when the oven is at the correct temp, and we cannot figure this out, as there appears to be no indicator. For us, the bake function is just as important as the toaster.

Looks stylish but lacks important features: No signal when oven is at the selected temperature. No timer to let you know the food is done. Pan is hard to get in and out. Top, bottom, and sides get very hot. Could damage countertop.
