I've had so many of these broiler/toaster ovens, from different manufacturers. I decided to try Cuisinart after my friend raved about his oven. I have to say this oven does a really good job! It toasts my bread exactly how i like it! It broils my meat evenly and and quickly. It bakes well. I like this oven. I wish it was a little bigger, but I can work with it. I would recommend this product to my friends.
