| Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating : - Changed my life! This countertop convection toaster oven broiler has changed my life! Namely, now I make roasted vegetables and other oven-needing items without making a big production of heating up my real oven (where I have a HearthKit 20-1/2-Inch Oven Insert that is wonderful but slows down preheating). And I roast or bake vegetables instead of microwaving.
I called Cuisinart to ask if we're really supposed to keep it unplugged, and they said No, that's just a precaution to make sure you don't leave the oven *on*. So I keep mine plugged in. Also, some reviewers complain that the timer doesn't turn the oven off when the time is up. But oven timers aren't supposed to turn ovens off -- think of them as alerts that it's time to check and see whether your food is ready.
This thing preheats in about three minutes. It includes a brilliant "defrost" feature that defrosts frozen bread and *then* makes toast. It's surprisingly spacious inside, and its door is a big glass window. It has insulated handles on the sides so you can move it at any time. I'm a fussy, critical person, and I love this appliance. Got it just over half price at a member-discount store. + See Full Customer Review |  |
