Product Description

Amazon.com Review

While this may look like your mother's toaster, it's far from it. Cuisinart has combined classic styling with modern electronic technology to produce this handsome, chrome-plated toaster with powerful performance. The two toaster slots are wide enough to accommodate thick bagel halves or rustic bread slices; when they're done, they pop up close to the surface for easy removal. The browning control is simple and easy to use, and the well-spaced heating elements make for even browning overall. Added features include a defrost control for frozen items such as toaster pastries or waffles, and the reheat cycle will come in handy in case your toast gets done before your eggs are scrambled. A crumb removal tray ensures easy cleanup--just slide out and dump. Keep the shiny metal surface glowing with the wipe of a damp cloth, and avoid abrasive powder cleaners or metal scrub pads. The handy cord-storage area underneath the toaster keeps your counter looking neat--because, of course, you're going to want to show this one off. --Marianne Painter

Editor's note: This is a reconditioned small appliance. Reconditioned generally means that the appliance has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings the appliance back to like-new condition. Some appliances may contain cosmetic blemishes. This unit has a 90-day warranty.

This is without a doubt the smartest looking toaster on the market. There are a few problems, however. The slots can't accommodate any toast that isn't standard size. It also has an annoying habit of popping the toast completely "out" of the toaster. However, looks won out for me.

I HATE hate hate most toasters on the market. They are for the most part, flimsy plastic things that can't be repaired. One EXPENSIVE deceased toaster we owned had a tiny plastic hook that held the spring for popping up the toast. When this little hook gave up the ghost, the toaster was uh, toast, so to speak. No repair part available. We then went with a cheap toaster after this experience, and the central element burned out the first time we used it. Fizz, pop, dead. I once heard a prominent radio host go through the same discussion on air; seems he also was searching for the perfect toaster and had come up short time and again. Well, our search seems to be over.

This toaster is substantial in feel, has the classic 50's streamline look, and has wide enough slots for our homemade bread or for bagels and muffins. It worked perfectly right out of the box. It has a cancel-button to stop the toasting (I had one toaster that you had to UNPLUG to get it to stop.) The price for the reconditioned model was very good.

We love it.

This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned Cuisinart CPT-70FR Toaster (Kitchen)

I thought I'd take a chance on this Factory-Reconditioned item since the item was described as "Like New". Well if scratched and a huge dent is considered like new then I guess I got what I paid for. I would possibly live with the dent if it were in a less conspicuous location. It seems that buying a Cuisinart Factory-Reconditioned item is a game of russian roulette as far as physical condition is concerned. Now I have the pleasure of paying for the return shipping.
