Would definitely buy again...,

"With only two people in the house, it feels silly to fire up the stove (and subsequently heat the whole house) for such small portions. This counter-top oven cures it all. Pizzas, bacon, garlic toast, brats... you name it, I've cooked it in this oven. It has a very easy clean up, a 3 minute heat up time and easy to use instructions. I can't say enough... I'm very happy with this."

Cuisinart Black Toaster Oven,
April 30, 2008
"Nice looking and does an excellent job baking cookies, egg rolls, heating crab cakes and makes good toast..
It lacks the feature of the door opening and pulling out the tray."

"I got this as a replacement for the EuroPro toaster that broke after less than 1 year of use. So far this looks great, works better and I'd recommend to all."

Refurbished Item,
January 3, 2008
By monte383

"The toaster/oven was well packed, but found it to be a refurbished item. It has a dent in it somewhere and everytime the unit is heated it expands and makes a very loud pop (banging) sound that will scare you everytime. I like all the features on this unit that I did not have on my other toaster/oven. I could do without the popping noise."

Cashmere..mmmm,
December 26, 2007
By VenusDWino
from Washington, DC
"Very nicely presented in a zippered see-through bag which would be ideal for storage, this sweater is nicely made and IS cashmere, not 5% cashmere as with many offered on the web. The cream color looks rich and will match everything. It knit itself is a little thin, otherwise I'd have rated it 5 stars in each category. It was a Christmas present and my daughter liked it very much.."

Works Great,
December 18, 2007
"I'm very pleased with this toaster oven. It heats up quick, and when toasting, you can set the dial between light, medium, and dark. The oven looks nice, and is pretty compact (doesn't take up much counter space.) The included broiling pan comes in handy also."

Great oven, toasts very evenly.,
October 25, 2007
"Toaster oven was in great shape for being a refurbished item; looked brand new. Toasts very evenly. Although maybe it toasts a bit on the slow side, but I guess that's the trade-off for evenly toasted bread. Only negative comment I have is that in contrast to my last toaster oven from Black & Decker, the toaster rack does not partially slide out when you open the oven door. I have come close to burning my hand on the inside top of the oven while trying to get my toast out. A set of wooden thongs would probably solve the problem."

Good toaster oven,
October 2, 2007
"I purchased this toaster oven to replace a similar toaster oven (same model, different color) that had stopped baking recently. I had the original one for 4 years and it got a lot of daily use. The first one had an oddity, every once in a while it would buzz and we would have to unplug it and replug it to get it to stop. It was the toaster signal going wacky. When the bake setting died we saw a little trail of smoke come out of the vents and smelled a bit of burnt plastic smell. The other settings, including toast, worked fine but besides the fact that we used the bake setting almost every day, I wanted to replace because it made me nervous that something was going on with it that might cause a fire or something.
I really like the design of this toaster oven. It's got a good amount of room inside yet is not overly big on the outside. We had a small counter area that it must fit in and it fits perfectly. I also like the fact that you use the bake setting without a timer. Many toaster ovens require you to turn a timer button on to get the unit to go on in the bake mode, this one, just put the dial on bake and it's on. I can set my own timer and not have to futz around with the stupid timer, which often are hard to set accurately so you have to overset it and then set a separate timer anyway.
My previous model had a stainless steel body with black trim, this model is a matte black with a kind of painted silvery color trim (it is not stainless steel or chrome). I think my previous model was more attractive, but this one is fine and the matte black body stays much cleaner than the stainless steel one. The painted handle has a little scratch on it, but it's barely noticeable.
This model's toast signal does not seem to work. My dh says that he heard it faintly the first time he used it, but I've never heard it. I do miss that as it's nice to have an audio clue that the toast is done, but it's not a big deal. I figure that at least the signal won't be going off when it's not supposed to with this one (I hope!)
The crumb tray is easy to clean, I just take it out and brush the crumbs off most of the time and wash it when something burns onto it. It's got some kind of non-stick surface on it, so cleans easily. I use the tray, often with a piece of foil on top, to bake a lot and it's good, but I have never used the little broil rack thing that sits inside it. The wire rack has two slots for height and is also designed in such a way that if you reverse it you change it's height, so in essence you get 4 height positions. The bake setting goes up to 500 F.
I'm happy with it and just hope this one lasts longer than the first one."
