CUISINARTCPT-142 Compact 4-Slice Toaster

I operate a bed and breakfast so I need a fast and efficient toaster. I have been using an expensive Lagustina brand which cost twice as much as this Cuisinart. I got tired of waiting and waiting for the toast to finish so I recently bought this unit. My new Cuisinart is perfect. Not only did it toast 3 minutes faster than my old unit, the buttons are easy to read - especially the cancel button. More expensive does not mean the unit is better. The coils heated up immediately after depressing the lever. Thank you Cuisinart.

I ordered a new toaster because my old one took so long. This toaster takes even longer and is 200 watts more. The dial goes from 1 - 6 . Even at 5, lots of breads are even brown. I would definitely send this product back if it wasn't such a pain in the butt. I think we are going to take the old one back to our kitchen and put this new one in our guest suite.

This toaster was well reviewed from many places, but it never really did a great job of toasting and after a few short months bread was never evenly toasted. One side mildly toasted, the other still bread. Then one of side of the double toaster stopped working completely. Have submitted for a warranty. My previous toaster lasted 15 years, this one only 8 months.

I hate toasters. I hate that they are made as cheap as possible and I hate that the bread never toasts evenly. After reading a bunch of reviews from googling "best toaster", this one was on almost every site I looked at. Every slice has been uniform and golden brown. I love it.

I have had this product for about a year. The left handle is very hard to get down. It seems to catch on something and I often have to try a couple of times. It’s bad enough that I wish I could return it but my window has closed. The overall quality apart from that is good. My only comment would be that slightly wider slots would be better.
