Pros: It has great features, and it's a pleasure to use...
Cons: It doesn't last.
Summary: In the immortal and redundant words of Popeye, I've had all I can stand, I can't stand no more. I'm boycotting the Toaster Industry forever. From now on, we'll eat our bagels frozen. Or at least at room temperature. Or we'll toast them in the oven. Or ... read more

Pros: Evenly toasts bread. Easy to clean.
Cons: Expensive. Large. Slow. LED lights continually on.
Summary: My husband purchased this toaster from Costco in 1998 for $49.99. I considered that to be twice the reasonable price of a toaster. However, he is finicky about his toast and thought it a good price for the Cuisinart brand. In its favor, I'll grant ... read more

Pros: Quick, even toasting for toast, bagels and English Muffins.
Cons: Too expensive.
Summary: Like the reviewers of "Consumer Reports," I have always viewed products not only for how good they are in comparison to others, but how pricey or inexpensive they are too. While I certainly appreciate a bargain, I also willingly will spend more for ... read more

Pros: Pretty
Cons: Makes lousy toast.
Summary: Reviewers seem to either love or hate this toaster - I hate mine. It takes forever to toast a slice of bread (producing a much drier toast than my old cheapie), toasts it unevenly, makes a horrible popup sound and makes the next slices darker. The ... read more

Pros: defrost and cancel options, tray to catch toast crumbs
Cons: toasts pretty slowly and unevenly
Summary: I’ve had this toaster for six months and I still haven’t figured out how to toast bread evenly, so I’m starting to think that it isn’t possible.
There are some features I do like: There’s a pull-out tray for easy disposal of what Kelly Bundy ... read more

Pros: Liked the fancy controls.
Cons: Fire hazard.
Summary: I bought it at Costco for the snazzy controls and facade of durability. After 1 month of use: 1) Lever would not stay down. 2) Toast trays were uneven. 3) Coils did not heat evenly. 4) Blue/green sparks shot from shorted contacts within device. The ... read more

Pros: It worked very well for a year, but...
Cons: now it's a toast "launcher."
Summary: We received this toaster as a gift after we had admired one our son had just bought. Unfortunately after a couple of weeks the lever which lowered the toast into our new toaster wouldn't lock, so we returned that one for a second try.

Pros: Easy to use. Very consistent toasting. Great looks.
Cons: Cannot seem to set default toasting level. Doesn't handle bagels gracefully if jammed.
Summary: After our top end Krups toaster burned out prematurely I suggested my wife to go out and get a toaster that will last. She went to Linens and Things with one of their ever present 20% off coupons and came back with this toaster. I believe she made the ... read more

Pros: makes any kind of light or dark toast, french bread pizzas and bagels are perfect
Cons: None, other than some people may not spend $70 for toast
Summary: One of the things that you have to do when you are on your own is furnish your living space. And while some things you can do cheap (shower curtain and laundry basket), sometimes it's best to spend a bit more for something worthwhile.

Pros: browns evenly
Cons: cost
Summary: I was in desperate need of a new toaster. The old toaster barely browned the bread, which was great for me, but a constant source of irritation for my husband.
What attracted me to this toaster was the length and width of the slot. Perfect for ... read more

Pros: Does what it's supposed to
Cons: Uneven toasting. Useless features. Launches toast.
Summary: I've had this toaster for about 3-4 years and have been pretty pleased with it overall. But now that it's older, I'm starting to see some shortcomings that when I look back, were there all the time.
I don't know how many years to expect a ... read more

Pros: not a NASA emulator.
Cons: none
Summary: I am sick and tired of playing NASA's games. At least when they launch a rocket or space shuttle they have an expectation the bloody thing will go up - not go up one time, get stuck on the launch pad the next and catch fire, or fly so high it punches a ... read more

Pros: Control with a variety of products
Cons: cost
Summary: The first time I bought this toaster, Cuisinart Custom Control Total Touch 2-Slice Electronic Toaster CPT-60, I thought it was pretty effective. But then so did my cat who short-circuited it with---, well the cat-people will understand. So then I went ... read more

Pros: Attractive, effective, cool to the touch outside.
Cons: You have to remember to use the settings, for best results.
Summary: We received this toaster as a wedding gift, after I managed to talk my now-husband into the fact that we needed one. The old one (not a Cuisinart; it was a Proctor-Silex and the model is no longer made) needed to run for three or four cycles on its ... read more

Pros: easy to use, low price
Cons: kinda bulky
Summary: The Two-Slice Toaster of the Century has performed well for us since we got it as a wedding gift last year. I am very impressed with the easiness of its operation and the fact that it doesn't overheat like my old GE. This one actually toasts. The red ... read more

Pros: Perfect toast, all the time
Cons: Died after just three blissful years
Summary: Marriage is full of compromises--my husband likes his toast dark. I like mine light--when I eat it, that is. To me, toast is good for two things: when I'm sick and need a dose of mommy food, and as the perfect place for tuna salad. However, I do like ... read more

Pros: great looking, easy to use, great for bagels
Cons: crazy strong pop up mechanism - throws the toast
Summary: We love our Cuisinart toaster! We registered for and received it as a wedding gift - because we would never spend this much on a toaster! But we are really glad we have it.
It is a great toaster for any type of bread or breakfast pastry. It ... read more

Pros: better than average toaster
Cons: doesnt remember your settings
Summary: I am very picky about my appliances and for the most part this toaster works just fine. However my big complaint is that you have to plug it in all the time or the little red lights that indicate lightness/darkness stay lit up. So every time I need to ... read more

Pros: Nice features
Cons: A little large
Summary: Finally, not only wide enough for bagels and homemade toast but long enough too. This item was purchased as a replacement. I purchased another brand on sale and had to return it because it was not a cool touch. That is a minimum requirement for me (as ... read more
