does not toast evenly: one side good, other side undertoasted and no, it was not on bagel setting.
Response from cuisinart.comBy Cuisinart, January 30, 2026
We’re sorry to hear your toaster isn’t producing even results. Toasting can vary slightly with different breads, but both sides should brown consistently under normal settings. Your feedback will be shared with our product team for consideration in future models. For tips on achieving more even toast or additional support, our Consumer Assistance team is available at 1-800-726-0190.

This is a replacement for the same toaster that was shipped to me from Cuisinart. We are having the same issues. It does not toast consistently. We are very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The feature I like least about the toaster is the dial knob for how light or dark you want your toast to be. It has no tension on the knob which means it moves too easily. This should be something that is corrected going forward.
Response from cuisinart.comBy Cuisinart, February 2, 2026
We appreciate you sharing your feedback about the toaster. The dial is designed to allow easy adjustment, but we understand that too little resistance can make it difficult to set accurately. Your comments regarding tension on the knob will be shared with our product team for consideration in future designs. If you have any questions or need assistance, our Consumer Assistance team is available at 1‑800‑726‑0190.

Does not toast evenly and temperature is very sensitive

Thank you for your feedback regarding the Cuisinart CPT-122BK toaster — we’re sorry to hear about the uneven toasting and sensitivity with the browning control. Adjusting the dial in small increments and allowing the toaster to cool between cycles can help improve consistency. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference Ticket #8900515511, so our team can assist further and review your concerns.

When I initially used the toaster it only toasted on one side, next try it toasted very lightly and I had the dial up to 7. I continued trying different approaches then after about 6 variations out of the blue it began toasting just right on dial 5. I think the elements needed to get self adjusted. I was frustrating and was ready to return it but decided to keep it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for sharing your experience—we’re sorry for the initial frustration and appreciate you giving the toaster time to adjust. New heating elements can require a few cycles to fully calibrate, which may explain the inconsistent toasting you noticed at first. If you have any ongoing concerns or would like additional guidance, our Consumer Assistance Center is available at 1-800-726-0190. Please reference Ticket #8900517449 when contacting us.

I dislike the top of the toaster because it collects crumbs in the indent the whole way around where the bread slices go. How am I supposed to clean that out without unplugging it constantly and turning it upside down? It's not the best design for ease of cleaning. And why isn't the crumb tray accessible from the front instead of the back of the toaster? That's inconvenient, too. Also the sides tend to not toast evenly. In all fairness, this was purchased to replace a very old toaster that was my father-in-law's that finally bit the dust. We've had it for 12 years and have no idea how long he owned it before then, but it was definitely when things were made to last.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your feedback — we understand your concerns about cleaning and uneven toasting, and we appreciate the loyalty you’ve had to your previous toaster. For the best results, always ensure the crumb tray is fully inserted and the toaster is unplugged before cleaning, and using a soft brush can help reach areas around the slots safely. Our Consumer Assistance Center can also offer additional tips for care and performance at 1-800-726-0190. Please reference Ticket #8900519932 when you call so we can assist you directly.
