BROKEN DOOR [Posted on 2008-10-02] I liked this toaster oven a lot, until the door broke (fell apart). Here are the issues: a) the right side came out from the main unit, and b) the left side - the glass detached from the metal slot it is in (not sure if i described that correctly) BUT BOTTOM LINE IS THE DOOR is BROKEN. I put the door back on, on both sides and the door wont close all the way.
Great for the first year, now need to replace [Posted on 2008-11-16] This toaster oven was great for the first year or so. Then we started having occasional problems with the door not staying shut. Now, after 3 years, the door never stays shut and the toaster oven tends to burn most things. We are ready to replace it! I thought that a brand like Cuisinart would make a long-lasting appliance, guess I was wrong!
great product [Posted on 2008-11-16] It is a great toaster oven. Works extremely well. Seems to be high quality. It definetly is better than heating up the house with the regular oven. I would highly recommend this toaster oven.
Worked great for a month, but... [Posted on 2008-12-01] This oven made some great toast. Yes, I can still remember those days... but, like another reviewer said, the door quit staying closed. After a few weeks of irritation, I removed a screw from the device that keeps it open. No more problem and more great toast. Then after about a year of moderate use, the dang thing just up and decided that it, not me would decide what temperature to cook things at when baking (and it tended to like about 500 degrees. There are not many recipes that call for 500 degrees, especially for a toaster oven. Toast was a similar random process, but the toaster liked both undercooking and overcooking.
One important piece of advice for those seeking a toaster/oven- toasters make toast faster than toaster ovens, and this toaster oven makes toast slower than other toaster ovens because it's pretty large (for a toaster oven).
Should a $100 device last longer than a year? I guess it depends on whether you ask an appliance manufacturer or a consumer.
Doesn't Live Up to Expectation [Posted on 2009-01-02] I re-did my kitchen about 1.5 yrs ago and bought Cuisinart appliances. I am ready to chuck my toaster oven. The door doesn't close properly unless you slam it and it toasts unevenly. Sometimes if you put it in medium, you'll get nearly burnt toast. The worst part, the start button is temperamental. It'll turn on at whim. This is after year 1. I previously owned a cheap $30 no-name brand and it worked better even after 5 years. The Cuisinart brand has lately been a disappointment. The only thing they know how to make well is a food processor.
