CPT-620P1 2-Slice Custom Select Toaster, Stainless Steel

Item is well made and works well

It works great, we use it most morning and it speeds up our breakfast time.

Kids love this, I'm a little less impressed. It's not awful, and has a ton of usable features, but I just cannot seem to find the perfect toasting spot amongst all the choices. To be fair, my last toaster was simple; put toast in, press lever, toast pops up done. This one you have to make sure everything is in the right place for whatever you are toasting. Again, kids are crazy impressed with it, and it's hard to impress all of them with something. It does seem to be well made, so I think I'll be able to figure it out before it dies.

You would think after all these years the toaster would be perfected and you could buy any old brand and it would do a pretty good job. Unfortunately that’s not the case. This toaster however does a great job at a reasonable price and is well built. Most toasters suffer from two issues slow toasting and uneven toasting. If there are not enough heating elements in the toaster or it’s not consistently manufactured both of those issues will be a problem. This one solves those issues issues with three solutions. There are plenty of heating elements, they are closely spaced and there is a timing option for single slices that actually turns off one side of the heating elements while the other side finishes. This function is invoked by pressing me single slice button. Particular breads can be very different as far as density and moisture content, even from side to side. Some toasters as I tried had dramatically different results from side to side. This one gets it mostly perfect. You really can’t go wrong at this price point. Purchasing this model will save you a lot of time and aggravation. Again it won’t always be an absolutely perfect toast but with a little experimentation you can get it darn close. There’s no need to pay hundreds of dollars for such a simple appliance. Stay away from displays and automatic lowering and raising mechanisms which always malfunction overtime. This unit should last quite a while

I just looked at the date we bought this, it was about 15 months ago. Within the first few weeks, we realize the so-called single-slice function didn't work. I contacted Cuisinart, and they asked me for a serial number. With ill health in the family, things got too busy, and I never got the toaster and looked for the serial number. We managed to use it without the single-slice function, but then we noticed that the far-right slot always toasted only one side. So if we had to use that slot, we had to be sure to pop up the toast and turn it about half way through. Pretty soon, we noticed both of the right hand side slots didnt toast evenly; both toasted on only one side. So we started using only the slots on the left. That worked for a while, and then that started also toasting only one side. So we started flipping the bread halfway through on that side, as well. We now are unable to calculate what will happen, so we generally have bread toasted on only one side and haven't figured out how to circumvent this. It appears that at least one coil on each side of the toaster doesn't heat. Should a toaster work that badly that quickly? I should have tried to find the serial number and gotten an exchange while I could have. But life gets hectic sometimes. I remember my grandmother had an old G.E. toaster that she had had for several years when I was visiting her. No problem ever with that thing. It was heavy and bulky and solid. She had it and used for 35 more years after that. Just because Cuisinart seemed to have a good reputation, I thought this looked like an idea toaster with lots of settings and functions, toasting 1 side only or both sides, 4 slots, etc. Very disappointing and a waste of money. It's a year later, so maybe it has been improved. But too late for us. Ours will have to be junked. Even the Salvation Army won't want it. What makes it worse is that Cuisinart makes it costly and difficult to use the 3 year warranty. When I called a year ago, I would have had to ship them the toaster at my own expense and make sure it would get there, meaning insuring it. Then it would have cost me out of pocket $10 for them to send me a repaired or new toaster. I'm guessing that would have cost ME almost $20, plus I would have had no toaster at all for that period of time. That is about the worst deal I've heard in many years when it comes to customer service. Considering my time as well as money, I'm better off to just buy a different brand toaster and to avoid Cuisinart products. The warranty is virtually useless.

Love it

This toaster was in the condo we rented on vacation. 4 slice with 2 separate settings. I was so impressed with the muffin, bagel and bread toasting results, I purchased one as soon as we returned home. The settings for bagel and muffins result in how dark or light you want your results without under toasting or burnt results. Use the 10 setting (all the way to the right) for well toasted results. The middle setting (5) results in an average toasting. The 1 setting results in a very light toasting. The instructions on the top of the toaster instruct that the bagel or muffin should be placed in the toaster with the side to be toasted facing the outside wall. My previous toaster did not toast well, even on the highest setting. I would have to push it down again and guess what setting to use to achieve a well toasted muffin or bagel. Despite my efforts I usually end up with an uneven toasted muffin/bagel with burnt edges. Not with this toaster. I am sure you will be happy with the results.

Ok, so it’s not a terrible toaster, but it’s not great either. Our previous toaster was seriously struggling and causing unnecessary drama in the breakfast routine. After weeks of scouring the internet for a replacement, I finally settled for this toaster simply because I realized that quality amongst small kitchen appliances in today’s world just sucks. Aesthetically, this toaster checks all the boxes, although do to limited counter space, we store it in a cabinet when not in use. Functionally, it works as intended, MOST of the time. Pros: it has a variety of settings that seem to be trustworthy (ie pastry: you can feel confident your pop tarts aren’t going to turn to ashes), bagel settings toast just one side of the bagel (as long as you pay attention and put it in there correctly), and countless other adjustable settings to get your toast just the way you want. Cons: the single slice function never worked. From the moment we plugged it in, that function just wasn’t happening. Not a big deal though since we’ve lived without that option our entire lives. At random times, we’ll push our bread down, it clicks into place, but something doesn’t engage and the heating elements don’t turn on. So we have to watch for a second to make sure it’s actually turning on. Again, for us, not worthy of sending back, we were accustomed to being held hostage by a cranky toaster for years. This toaster gets the job done when it’s in the mood to. It’s not as difficult as our previous toaster and perhaps that’s why we’ve shrugged it off and let it take up residence in our kitchen. One more thing: I’ve seen reviews about the cord coming out of the front and how it makes it difficult…the cord comes out of the bottom more towards the front, but easily comes under the toaster and out the back. If you wanted to store it on your counter, the cord wouldn’t be in issue IMO.

J’adore ! Bel aspect et très rapide ! Je le conseil très satisfaite :)

Muy buen tosatdor, caben bien los panes mas anchos. Se ve estético y moderno.
