I did a ton of research before buying this oven. I'd had a Black & Decker for years that I loved, but it began to malfunction, and I reluctantly knew I needed to buy another large countertop oven. I use my countertop oven constantly--far more than my regular one, actually. There are two of us, and I find it ideal for most meal prep. I'd read the reviews about the door not closing properly, how hot the oven becomes on the outside, how the paint comes off the buttons, etc. But it seemed overall to be the best and most dependable choice. So I sprung for it. I love it. The first thing I did was to apply clear nail polish to the buttons before I even used it. Problem solved. I've never had a smidge of issue with the buttons or their paint coming off. The door was adjusted fine. At first I was curious, because it appeared to be slightly away from the oven body when shut, but that was not an issue whatsoever. No heat escaped. It was evenly closed. It works perfectly fine. And the heat issue--I'd read how people burned themselves on the door handle and so forth--honestly, I have never had a problem with the heat at all. Does the top get hot? Of course--it's an oven. Do I ensure to pull it forward to the front edge of the countertop and out from under the overhead cabinets? Of course. Does it heat up my kitchen? Nope. Can I put things on top of the oven while it's in use? Yes. I put the extra rack and extra broiler rack that I ordinarily store inside the oven on the top when I remove them to use it. They are all metal. It's no big deal. This oven heats up incredibly fast--within 3 minutes or so. It actually cooks faster than my other oven or previous B&D did (I check my recipes about 5-10 minutes earlier now). The heat seems even and steady. What I love about it: (1) The internal light is wonderful. (2) The interior is large enough for most daily needs and for baking quick breads (banana bread, zucchini bread) and the like. (3) It's an attractive piece of equipment to have on the counter in the kitchen. (4) It offers a number of cooking settings on the dial as well as the ability to customize to what you want. (4) It comes with two racks that can be placed in any of four positions, two of which will pull out when you open the door. What I'd improve: (1) The timer theoretically "rings" when it has preheated or is finished cooking. Are you kidding me? That "ring" is barely a whisper. The sound level of the timer definitely should be hugely amplified for anyone more than 1 foot away to hear it in a silent room. (2) There should be an independent, manual "Preheat" setting offered that doesn't impact the cooking time. I have to add extra minutes to the cooking time to account for my food prep, and then I set a separate timer (and one that I can hear!) once I put the food into the oven for when the food will be finished. That's a small inconvenience, but it would be nice if the oven provided it. The first improvement with the ring is the most important. (3) For some reason I read that the manufacturer says not to use glass in the oven, but instead to use metal. I'd gotten rid of most of my metal in favor of glass for my gas oven and my microwave, so I had to buy new cookware for this one. It's not the worst thing in the world, but it did cost me some extra money just for this Cuisinart. I've used this oven daily now for a couple of months. I'd recommend it in a heartbeat to someone who wants a quality appliance that will enhance and expand their cooking capabilities. It's a fine piece of equipment.

As of this writing we've only had this little oven for a couple of weeks and haven't used it for as wide a range of foods as I anticipate we will but so far we're quite happy with it. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised at how well toasting English muffins, baking pizza, baking chicken, and roasting veggies turned out. The capacity is good. It's spacious enough to bake with some of my standard pans (metal. I understand you should about Pyrex in these.) The roasting pan it came with is much better quality than I've encountered before in such an appliance, and it cleans easily too. It also came with a pizza stone which seems to function as it should. Standard frozen pizza fits inside the oven without difficulty. This is proving to be just the appliance we needed to broaden our summer eating habits because we don't need to heat the big oven & heat up the condo just to bake or broil food for 2 people. Obviously any such device would do that, but with this one it's been pleasant to do so. We did have a mishap in which a young adult accidentally set fire to a flatbread she was cooking. I believe this was the result of user error. She reportedly attempted to cook it on a rack that was much to close to the upper heating element in an oven that heats up more and more quickly than the rinky, lightweight, cheap model we used for the previous decade. I wasn't home to see it but know that she put it the flame out fairly quickly with no functional damage to the appliance. I was Not Pleased, however, to observe the resulting scorched and glazed interior of my previously shiny new appliance. The interior of the door was especially disappointing as I had been enjoying the shine, clean glass and useful little interior light. I'll admit I grieved & lamented for a few days. Happily, the application of baking soda & vinegar plus some elbow grease cleaned it up relatively easily and without using harsh chemicals. * I recommend consulting the booklet for recommendations about spacing and settings. Bottom line: I am not a person who drops $$$ readily in anything. I came around to doing so after conducting a fair amount of research on models and reading an excessive number of reviews. I was concerned I might have buyer's remorse but so far the opposite is true. We're really quite pleased.

Quería un horno tostador de gama alta ya que no tengo un horno de tamaño completo. He comprado este mismo tres veces porque funciona muy bien. Puedo colocar fácilmente una sartén para lasaña de 9x9 pulgadas o una pizza de 12 pulgadas adentro. Me gustan todas las configuraciones diferentes, además de que la opción de convención (que ayuda a que las cosas se cocinen más rápido y tengan el exterior tostado) funciona como una freidora de aire. Las etiquetas están en inglés.

I have to say, not only is this a beautiful looking appliance, it is also a great product. Cruisinart thought of everything when they made this machine. Very easy to operate and food comes out perfect every time. The drip pan is so easy to clean, not like the cheaper models that you have to scrub. Cruisinart also thought to make it so you able to adjust the bell so you can hear it. The convection part is quiet but definitely running. I love the speed convection. I haven't found anything that I dislike about this so far. Well worth the money. I've had toaster ovens most of my life, even another Cuisinart. This one is the best!

Funciona de maravilla, es un poco costoso pero esta muy bien hecho y el desempeño es tal cual como dicen. Nunca me había salido tan bien una pizza….

Fantastic, well designed, easy to clean, as described -

Chauffe bien et vite et cuit bien, assez facile a utiliser
