lever doesn't stay down to toast
I've had this toaster a little over a year and the lever will not stay down when I try to toast my bread. I have to hold the lever down to get it to work. I've tried using all the choices and still doesn't work. i bought one for my daugter and hers seems to be working fine. I just got a bad one.

We're sorry to hear your toaster is no longer operating as expected. If the carriage lever will not stay down, we recommend making sure the unit is plugged directly into a working wall outlet, checking that the crumb tray is properly installed, and clearing any crumbs or debris that may be interfering with the carriage mechanism. While we're glad to hear your daughter's toaster is performing well, we understand how disappointing it is when your unit does not provide the same experience. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference Ticket #8901031744 so we can further troubleshoot and assist. Thank you for sharing your feedback—it helps us improve future models and enhance the overall consumer experience.

2 slice toaster
I guess the saying "you get what you pay for" is true. I was a little disappointed with the quality of the toaster being a Cuisinart and their reputation for being of higher quality. That was the main reason that we purchased it. I feel the plastic outside is very cheap and disappointing and its toasting quality isn't that great either.

Toast
Does not toast evenly. Usually lighter or darker on one side or another.

Doesn’t live up to expectations
This is the worst toaster we have bought in 55 years of our marriage. The dial doesn’t seem to make a difference of where it is set. Set at 3-4 most of the time it comes up untoasted and needs pushed down for a second time. Sometimes one side will come up white and the other almost burned. Moving the dial doesn’t seem to make much of a difference in the doneness of the toast. Do not buy this toaster!

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating inconsistent toasting can be. Uneven results can sometimes occur if bread is not centered properly or if crumb buildup is affecting performance, so we recommend ensuring the slots are clear and cleaning the crumb tray of any debris, along with trying a slightly higher setting while monitoring results. If the issue continues, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference ticket #8901026347 so we can further assist. Thank you for your feedback—your insights help us improve future models and performance.

Toasts very dark on a low setting
I have only had the toaster for a few weeks and it’s working okay, but I find that you have to use a very low setting, less than a 3, or the toast gets very dark, almost burnt. Between 2 and 3 isn’t enough but 3 gets pretty well done. Not sure what would happen on a higher setting, haven’t wanted to try it. Also haven’t tried the bagel setting for the same reason. I have an older model and it doesn’t have the same issue which why I bought the same toaster for a second home.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating it can be to find the right setting for consistent toasting. For more balanced results, we recommend starting at a lower setting, making small adjustments between cycles, and ensuring the crumb tray is cleaned regularly, as debris can affect heat distribution. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference ticket #8901025264 so we can further assist and review your unit. Thank you

Works great!
I had forgotten what actual browned toast and bagels should look like until we purchased this toaster. It works great and will even over-brown if set too high. Very happy so far.

Another Excellent Cuisinart Product
The best toaster of any size I have ever had! Whether it was toast, bagel or English muffin, it was perfect every time. The added bonus was that it didn’t take up much space on the counter.

Good for toast and bagels
A quick and even toast on thin toast and bagels. Great for a small kitchen.

Great value!
I was hesitant to purchase a plastic toaster after my steel version that lasted 20 years. However, this little machine has been working great. Light and consistent; I'm very happy with the choice.

Honestly Disappointing
I like well toasted toast, not burned, but crispy. On the highest setting, my toast comes out at a medium level of toasted at best (sometimes more medium-low). For having 7 setting levels, I find this pretty shocking. Even more so since this was a Wirecutter recommendation. I'm very disappointed and wish I had purchased a different toaster. What are the other 6 settings even for?

We’re sorry to hear the toaster isn’t delivering your preferred level of browning and understand how frustrating that can be. For best results, we recommend trying a longer toasting cycle on a mid-to-high setting, ensuring slices are centered in the slots, and checking that the unit is plugged into a dedicated outlet, as power variations can affect performance. If you continue to experience inconsistent browning, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference ticket #8901009799 so we can further assist you. Thank you for your feedback—it helps us improve future models.

Doesn't toast evenly, as the reviews said
I read the reviews saying this doesn’t toast evenly and I honestly just hoped that those ones were duds and I’d get one that wasn’t. Jokes on me - mine doesn’t toast right either. But it’s fine, it does the job just doesn’t do it evenly. I don’t care that much but if you do, I’d buy something else.

A simple, attractive, good toaster
Toaster is basic,very functional how to user friendly. The slots are big enough for bagels, and the temperature gauge works well.

I love this toaster!
My Mom and I went on a vacation and they had this toaster in the house we rented. Before owning this I was using an air fryer with a toast option for toasting. It did not work well. This toaster works wonderful. It toasts both side of the bread evenly, quickly and it easy clean up. I like that the crumb tray is located at the back of the machine, so you don't see it.

Flimsy, & mediocre performance,BUT WORTH THE PRICE
It toasts, unevenly; control dial feels about to fall off. This is the third one of this model we’ve owned The first one we sent back immediately because it toasted only one side in one of the slots. Second one did exactly the same but we decided to live with it. I don’t have high hopes for the longevity of this one, but Wirecutter recommends it, all things considered.
