Our old Cuisinart developed a short so the body of the unit was energized when plugged in.  Bought this because the controls were simple.  It works well.  I like the rack adjustments.  Only challenge is the text on the controls are SMALL and black on chroma is hard to read sometimes.  Also dials have just a slightly thicker rubber bump to show where the dials are set.  Also, toasting seems to be a bit uneven between top and bottom.  But overall, a good, unt.
