Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Factory-Reconditioned Cuisinart TOB-30BCFR Classic Toaster Oven Broiler, Brushed Chrome

Customer Review: Flawless Reconditioned Toaster Oven
Summary: 5 Stars

1. Size. Yes its big. Its about 2x the size of your average toaster oven. However it is an appropriate size for what it does. It has 2 slots to put the rack and/or baking tray broiler on either a medium or low position. Yes this is a heavy toaster oven. If all you do in your toaster oven is make bread and an occasional waffle, dont bother getting this oven. You'd be much better served with a Black and Decker.

2. Settings. For me these are exactly what I wanted. Seperate segments on a dial for Broil, Bake and Toast. I do a lot of toaster oven cooking. I dont like to fire up my big gas oven to make a meal for 1 or 2 people, and sometimes I just need an extra oven. This is perfect for me. When I toasted my first piece of bread (as with all toaster ovens or toasters for that matter) it burned on the medium toast setting. You need to find your own personal learning curve for toasting. And this learning curve will change as crumbs burn onto the elements.

3. Heat. This oven heats up pretty darn fast considering its so big. Compared to smaller toaster ovens if you're more familiar with them, this will take a little longer to heat up than you are accustomed to. Also do not store potholders or anything plastic on top of this toaster oven or near its sides. You will wind up with a gooey mess. Its very warm to the touch when fully heated to 500 degrees. However its not the firehazard of a toaster oven that I am replacing with this one.

4. Warranty. Reconditioned products come with a 90 day warranty not a full warranty like a brand new one. If you're concerned about warranties, this is a major concern for you. I would test this product immediately upon reciept if you're planning on keeping it around for gift giving or for a potential move (like I'm doing)

All in all, this has been an incredible experience for me with this toaster oven. The product looks new, operates like new and except for the warranty, I'd suspect that the toaster oven I recieved was a returned product. And the price cannot be beat. I could have gotten a brand new Black and Decker for this price with none of the wonderful features of this one and considering the B&D's reviews I've been seeing around here, this toaster oven is a dream

With all reconditioned products though you are taking a risk. However with Amazon's wonderful return policy, if you get something severely defected, returns are a breeze.
