Could not get the toaster to toast on both sides of the bread slice satisfactorily. Setting 2 to 3 would toast the inside of the slice ok, but nothing on the outside. Any higher setting the outside would be partially ok, but the inside of the slice would be burned.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Doesn’t toast evenly. One side gets darker than the other.

Replaced an older toaster that was very confusing with its controls. This Cuisinart makes things so much simpler, and the heating seems more efficient. So glad we bought it!
I've had this toaster only a couple of weeks and so can't say whether it will stand the test of time. The last toaster was disappointing because it didn't last more than about 3 years. So far this toaster does a good job on English muffins and (large) slices of bread--fresh or frozen. I particularly like the easy-access controls--easy to see, easy to handle. Easy to clean too. And it doesn't take up much space.
I bought this toaster based on a Wirecutter review. The review said it did a decent job of evenly browning the toast, and I disagree. Every piece of toast I've made so far has one dark and one light side, regardless of whether I'm making one or two pieces at a time. But 4 stars because it's cheap and for the price point, I'm just happy to get edible toast.
