glass exploded after three years of light use
I bought this unit in November 2005. I thought I would use the oven features often, but it just hasn't worked out that way. I mainly use this for toast on the weekends. I haven't been unhappy with it, but for just toast I could have spent a lot less than 200 dollars. Last weekend, my husband made toast it it, and when he opened the glass door, it shattered into a million pieces. It sounded like an explosion!! On the plus side, cuisinart customer service seems reasonable. They are sending me a new unit, but I have to pay shipping and handling to send the broken one back. Also, the warranty is only three years from date of manufacture, unless you can prove the exact date you bought it. Thank God that Amazon saves your orders so I did have proof of when I bought it. Who saves receipts for three years???? I'm kinda wondering why I would want another of the same unit that exploded on me in less than three years of light use, though.

Read the manual - you'll love this product
Rated high and did not disappoint. Highly recommend reading the manual to set tray different uses. Bagels, english muffins and toast have all come out perfectly. Baked brownies on convection - aok. That's it so far.

Superb from Cuisinart
We had been using an older toaster oven, and firing up the big oven more often than we wanted, but this item is fantastic. We haven't used the main oven in our kitchen since buying this. Takes a little reading of the instruction manual to get it all down before starting, but well worth the investment of time. We had seen that Consumer Reports ranked this the highest model, regardless of price and the deal on Amazon was too good to pass up.
