"Terrible temperature control"
Extremely disappointed with this product, which I bought to replace a 20 year old Toast R Oven which was still working perfectly (I just needed larger capacity). This oven seems to have only one temperature setting: incinerate! Baking cookies at 350 degrees yielded sizzling black hockey pucks. Tried again at 250 degrees... same problem. I thought maybe my particular unit was defective; I returned it for another one and the same thing happened. This model is just bad. Unfortunate, since I've used many other excellent Cuisinart products.

"I used to like it"
We got this when we got married 3 years ago and it just stopped working the other day. Like clockwork - the three year warranty runs out and so does the toaster.
When it worked it worked well, but it's too expensive to have to replace every 3 years. We will not buy Cuisinart again.

"Fire Hazard- Do Not Purchase!"
I have owned this toaster oven less than one year. It has always sparked a little every time I turn it on. Today the Bake cycle will not function at all. I should have read the reviews first. Total waste of $100.

"Unsafe"
We purchased a similar oven, model TOB-30BCC, about two years ago. Last week, when my daughter pressed the "on" button to make toast, the oven made a loud cracking noise, and sparks shot out the back. She smelled something burning, and unplugged the oven. Cuisinart refuses to stand behind this item, insisting that we produce a sales receipt that we no longer have. This oven is unsafe, and should be recalled. This is the last Cuisinart product that we will bring into our home.

"Defective Applicance to be Avoided"
I have owned two of these lemons. The first one experienced electrical sparking and spitting like previous reviewers have explained. We sent it back to Cuisinart for repair, and, after many phone calls, they shipped us a new one. The new one has developed the same problem apparently, plus a new one. The electrical problem has reappeared: When we returned from a two week trip, having forgotten to unplug it, and having left it in Toast, we were greeted by a loud buzzing noise. No lights were on, and the oven was cool, but it was making a lot of noise for an appliance that appeared to be "off". But, it still worked, so we keep using it.

Yesterday, I tried to move it, to clean under it, but it had leaked something and 'glued' the feet to the counter, and when I tried to move it the plastic broke. So now it's propped up on the broken plastic awaiting a replacement oven (anything but Cuisinart).

I heartily agree that the CPSC should ban the sale of these ovens. They're a menace.

What our customer's say!

"Unreliable, potentially unsafe.", We've had similar problems with our Cuisinart TOB-30W as the other reviewers. We owned our first unit for two years before it started crackling and sparking when we turned it to Bake. Then it finally stopped working. Cuisinart replaced it with a brand new unit that lasted only one year before it started doing the same. They told us the three year warranty was not renewed when we received the new unit, so now they aren't able to help us. It appears that we're probably safer without the toaster oven based on the other reviews here.

"worked great for awhile", I bought this last year for a summer cabin, so it has only been used periodically over a total span of six months. Suddenly the thing refuses to turn off. We noticed this when the smoke alarm went off last night! It only turns off when unplugged. Not only that, the top unit stopped working completely so all we can do is bake. It was great while it lasted, but I read these same complaints in other reviews so this is evidently a glitch in this particular model. I don't recommend.

"Wish I had read reviews before buying", It is working after approximately 2 years. Still it is a clunker. The markings wipe off the knobs with a finger's touch, obscuring the temperature or function. Cuisinart is willing to send new knobs, but the old ones do not appear to be removable without removing the entire panel, which does not appear to be easy.

Somehow I was expecting more from the brand name "Cuisinart". It sounds French but is made in China.

The oven door is in jeopardy, and feels like it may come off. It is not flush. A strange buzzing sound sometimes emits when the item remains plugged into the wall and not being used.

I guess I was expecting it to be a higher quality than it actually is. It looks the part, but does not function like an "industrial kitchen item".

I will be reading reviews from now on before buying household items.

"Loved it until it stopped working", We had one of these toasters for about 4.5 years. I really love the space inside, the design, and the fact that it has a digital on/off switch (instead of a timer dial that tick-ticks until it's finished). Two weeks ago, the upper heating elements stopped working... How is it that my grandmother had a little Black & Decker toaster that lasted for 15 years?

"Long Term Problem NOT Being Addressed by Cuisinart AKA Conair", Cuisinart Classic Toaster Oven/Broiler Chrome

I purchased this product several years ago. Within the warranty period (3 years) I came home to find an alarm sounding. I traced it to this toaster oven which was plugged in but with the function dial in the off position. The unit was cool to the touch but I requested a replacement unit. Well, 1 year and 4 months later, I found the replacement unit plugged in, in the off position with the buzzer sounding continuously. This time the unit was hot. Since I reported this problem to Cuisinart over a year ago, it appears that nothing has been done about the malfunction. See reports underCuisinart TTOB-30BW Toaster Oven/Broiler.

"Don't give me a used oven.", When I received the oven, I was so angry and disappointed that the toaster oven broiler has been used. It is not brand new at all! There were many heavy scrapes inside and outside this machine. Furthermore, there are even small pieces of food left inside the oven. I spent money to buy a new oven not a second hand oven.


"Awful Item, should be avoided", I bought this item and it broke after six months. Cuisinart told me they would not replace because warranty expired. I would expect a well known company to provide better quality products.

"Cuisinart Toaster", This is the best toaster oven ever made. Spend the extra money.......it's well worth it!

"FIRE HAZARD -zero stars", Mine worked okay (one element slow to warmup)for several months. Now the unit won't shut down and I detect a faint smell of burning wires from switch area.

If you don't unplug the thing, you're flirting with disaster. Contacted Cuisineart about issue. We'll see if anything happens.

"the perfect toaster oven...for 2.5 years", I own the stainless/black version of this and have had more than a year of perfect operation. I don't use a microwave very often or my large oven so this gets used daily. It looks brand new. Food simply doesn't stick to the glass door or the handy crumb tray. So far so good.

UPDATE: after two and half years of flawless operation, the internals of the toast/bake/broil switch are fried. The toaster oven no longer stays on in "bake" mode, rendering it useless. I would downgrade the rating to 2 stars.
