Does not toast on just one side of a Bagel
Disappointed in the product. Represents bagel functions but does not toast on just one side of the bagel. Bagel still gets toasted on both sides even though there are marking that only one side is toasted. So don't be fooled that it is for bagels. No one wants bagels toasted on both sides. You might as well buy a toaster and save yourself some money.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the 4 Slice Compact Plastic Toaster. We're sorry to hear the bagel function did not perform as you expected. The bagel feature is designed to add extra time to the toasting cycle to accommodate thicker breads, and it may also be used for English muffins and other thick bread products. If you have questions about the bagel setting or would like additional troubleshooting assistance, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience; your feedback is valuable to us and helps us continue improving our products and consumer experience.

Lives up to the Queen and Art reputation!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all, I trust the Cuisinart brand, have many Cuisinart products. The toaster lives up to the Cuisinart reputation. The settings are accurate wide enough for bagels. Does a job!

The toaster doesn’t provide an even shade of toast on both sides. One side didn’t toast at all.
1 reply from Product Expert team - 1 month ago
We're sorry to hear that your Cuisinart 4 Slice Toaster did not provide even toasting and that one side of the bread remained untoasted. To help improve performance, we recommend ensuring the bread is centered in the slots and cleaning the crumb tray regularly, as accumulated debris can sometimes affect heat distribution and browning consistency. If the issue persists, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 so our team can provide additional troubleshooting assistance. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our products and consumer experience, and we thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us.

We love our Cuisinart 4 slice toaster. It is convenient, gives us a lot of toast quickly. It is sturdy, easy to clean and versatile. We can regulate temperature and amount of slices you want. We are so glad that we chose Cuisinart for our needs in a lot of our appliances.

very uneven toasting
toasting is very uneven and the bagel was over toasted on the outside of one side. Disappointed in this toaster.
1 reply from Cuisinart team - 2 months ago
We're sorry to hear the 4-Slice Compact Plastic Toaster did not provide the toasting results you expected. For more even browning, we recommend placing items in the center of the slot and checking that the crumb tray is properly installed and free of debris, as this can sometimes affect performance. We understand how disappointing it is when toast and bagels do not brown consistently, especially when using the specialty bagel setting. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference Ticket #8901031830 so we can provide additional troubleshooting assistance. Thank you for sharing your feedback—it helps us identify opportunities to improve future models and enhance the overall consumer experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second one and I would not buy it again. Not sure why I bought it again because the first time it blew out fast. The sides don’t toast evenly and now one of the two sides of the toaster don’t work at all.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the toaster, especially with uneven toasting and one side no longer functioning. For improved performance, we recommend ensuring the unit is plugged into a proper outlet, adjusting the shade settings gradually, and regularly cleaning the crumb tray to remove debris that can affect operation. Our team would appreciate the opportunity to review this further and assist—please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference Ticket #8901026130. Thank you for your feedback, as it helps us improve future products and overall quality.
