Bake, broil, toast, defrost, and reheat your favorite foods with one sleek machine: this high-performance convection toaster oven from Cuisinart. A commanding presence, the black and brushed-chrome unit delivers precise control and offers numerous cooking methods. Cuisinart's Exact Heat Sensor lets you choose function and temperature, and then rely on the oven to tell you when food is ready. You can also choose to cook with the timer, according to your needs.

The convection option on the oven (which uses a fan to circulate heat for even temperatures and moist results) is great for everything from roast meats to chocolate cake. Conventional baking on this model works just like a full-sized oven, while the broiling feature lets you broil steaks and fish or brown the tops of casseroles. The oven is preprogrammed for simple toasting but accommodates customized settings for lighter or darker results, bagels or English muffins, or four to six slices at a time. The clean, strong structure of the oven is complemented by an easy-to-use control panel, with a clock that doubles as a function display. Helpful extras include a dual-position oven rack, a removable crumb tray, a "Temp Ready" indicator, a detailed instruction/recipe booklet, and comfortable side handles. --Emily Bedard

5 out of 5 stars Toaster oven   April 19, 2008

I opposed getting a toaster oven because it takes up counter space. But I must admit that I am using the oven far more than I imagined. I gave my toaster away so I am saving that space. I am baking or broiling meat in place of pan frying so I am saving calories. The features of the oven are excellent; it is easy to clean and operate.


2 out of 5 stars This toaster model just can't toast evenly, after three of them!   April 14, 2008

I purchased this toaster oven after much research and review reading in Sep. 06. It worked very well for about a year, but then it started barely toasting on the bottom side. I could see that the lower elements barely changed color by the time the cycle timed out. I called customer service, and was advised to send it back in Sep. 07. I had to ship it on my dime ($15.00). They sent me a new oven in about three weeks. This one took even less time to do the SAME THING!!. I called again, and asked if there were any service alerts about this problem. The rep said none were in effect. In Feb. 08 I sent the second one back (again on my dime, $15.00). The third one arrived in about two weeks, and within a month, it showed the SAME inability to toast bread evenly, even when I located the rack as low as possible to the elements! The upper element is glowing red in 90 seconds, and the lower ones barely change color after three minutes! Having already spent $30.00 shipping these things back, I just give up. We end up toasting and then manually flipping the bread for about another half cycle. For the money and hype, I expected better. Very dissatisfied with the toasting feature.

It works and works very well. I have the unit for over 3 years, use it everyday for breakfast, kid's lunch, and dinner, it delivers. This is one of the few things that actually make life easier. Highly recommend.

I love this toaster! Although it has been very complicated to figure out - lots of options, rack settings, convection bake vs regular bake, etc., the quality of the food it produces has been outstanding. Toast is evenly browned, baked and broiled foods are evenly cooked and moist. It has been well worth the effort to figure out how to use it. I would like more information in the product guide about when to use convection baking vs regular baking but that's my only suggestion.


1 out of 5 stars Fire Hazard! Beware!   April 1, 2008

When the timer goes off, the oven does NOT shut off! If you are forgetful, it could be four hours before this unit shuts itself off. Plenty of time for it to burn your food, your kitchen or your home. Buyer beware. Major consumer testing agency fails to note this safety flaw.
