Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Great while it lasted
Like many other reviewers, I was disappointed with the life span on this item.Having had (still have and still using) other Cuisinart products, I thought this would be a good investment to replace my 15-year old Delonghi toaster oven.It worked great, for the first few years, then started developing problems with the controls.Now, after only 4 years it is nothing more than an extreme fire hazard.The controls don't work unless you jiggle the knobs, and even then it randomly turns off or goes ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Unreliable, Didn't Last.
We purchased this toaster oven three or four years ago. I agree that the exterior of this oven gets very hot to the touch when in use -- not safe with little ones in the house.The controls are imprecise, resulting in burned toast on the light setting sometimes, and barely browned on the same setting other times. Within a year of buying it, the front element went out, resulting in even more uneven heating.Finally, it shorted out altogether, and now, only a few years later, we're looking at replacing ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Good for 2-3 years, faulty beep alerts, heating coils on last legs
I have had this toaster for about 4 years.Worked great for about 2-3 years.Like others, the electronic alert either doesn't work at the end of a toasting cycle or will beep on its own when another electronic device in the house is on (the toaster electronics is VERY sensitive to voltage fluctuations).Finally, the heating coils starting wearing out after 2 years and now (4 years) don't get as hot as they used to.In other words, I used to set the toaster on "between light to medium" to toast bagels. ...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - It Totally Sucks
Ours has always beeped at weird times, popped when it gets hot, and the fins on the side get in the way.Yesterday the light wouldn't shut off, wouldn't stop heating up, and each time the setting knob was changed it would go "ZZZZT" and release a small smoke cloud.Plugged it in the next day to check it out again and actually caught on fire.It's out of warranty of course, so I'm stuck with needing to get a new oven.Not Cuisinart.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Cuisinart toaster oven
This an elegant oven in function and appearance. The door opens quietly and the controls respond to a feather touch. We looked at many other manufacturer's models before selecting this item.
