Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart CPT-190 Brushed Stainless Steel 4-Slice Toaster with Countdown Timer

Customer Review: Why can no one make a good toaster?
Summary: 1 Stars

I thought this was going to be the perfect toaster. However, once again a toaster misses the mark.

I particularly like the countdown timer, because I always wonder how much longer it will take to toast my bread, but it would be nice if the counters only lit up when the toast control is pushed down. They do make nice night lights in the kitchen, though.

Deficiencies:
1. The slots are wide, but they are short, so thick bread will go in just fine, but not some wider bread types. 12 grain breads in particular tend to be wider, and the slices end up caught on the ends of the slots.

2. The first thing I noticed was that the center elements of the toaster did not get as red as the outside elements. Thus I was worried that the bread would toast darker one side than the other, and that was the case.

3. One side (2 slots) of the toaster refused to work on the third attempt. It would not latch down.

4. I had to set the control to 5.5 (the highest setting is 6) to toast multigrain bread to a medium color. I would guess that a setting of 1 or 2 would just slightly warm the bread.

This toaster seems to be optimized for bagels. I want a toaster that is optimized for toast!

When I was a kid, we had toasters that went tick tick tick, toasted the bread just right and then dinged, and didn't cost much. Why can no one make a decent toaster like that now?
