4 Slice Countdown Motorized Toaster, Compact Design with Extra-Wide Slots for Toasting, Defrost & Reheat Functions, CPT-435P1, Stainless Steel

So happy I made this purchase. My family is not really what I would call a toaster crazy family. When my wife and I got married, we registered for a nice toaster. It lasted us 11 plus years and we never had a second thought about it. I mean, it's a toaster right? It can make toast and take a regular bagel and make it awesome... so I was happy. Sadly it died on us one day. I thought we could go buy a new one and we'd be happy. Boy was I wrong. I purchased 2 other toasters in less than 2 years, both were decent name brand toasters. Both crapped out on my quickly and didn't really even toast all that well when they were active. I'm not sure when building a quality toaster became so hard, but something happened where quality and durability just don't matter any more. I read all the reviews, I compared all the prices. For my budget, I thought this looked like the best option. I have 2 young kids and a wife. So, on any given week our breakfast choices change 10 times over. Toast, a bagel, waffles, pop-tarts..... we use it more often now then the past. This WAS the right product for us. Nice features, even toasting, a nice count down feature, easy to use heat settings, all add up to a great appliance. I really like that it doesn't pop up violently... it plays a nice tone instead. Also, you can list the handle to raise you bread out even higher to avoid any contact with the metal. Also very nice with smaller breads like small bagels and English muffins. I went with the stainless option because it looks nice and matches my kitchen. I noticed my work has almost the same exact toaster in our break room, just in white. That thing gets used probably 50 times a day and works like a champ. If you are on the fence like I was, you have done your research like I did, and this is one of your options.... go for it. I think you'll be happy you did.

We bought this 4 years ago and still works a well as it did them. Makes a great toast every time with many different levels. Easy to clean and would highly recommend.

2023 Update: While looking for another toaster for my Airbnb, I realize I’ve had this toaster since 2016 and it is still running! In this day and age of stuff going kaput after a year or two this is pretty impressive. Not to jinx myself but I’ve had zero issues and it looks and works as good as the day I bought it. One thing to note is that apparently it takes up a lot of voltage so if electrical load is a concern in your kitchen try the version without the digital display. Original review: Was wary of purchasing after all the reviews, especially those that mention uneven toasting, till my husband reminded me that our existing toaster also toasted unevenly and I realized that a toaster is a toaster so who cares really? We've had this only a week but so far it is great. It toasts fairly evenly, bagel option toasts as it should and the mechanicals all work fine. I didn't realize at the time of purchase but there's also a countdown so you know when your toast is almost ready. It doesn't get hot on the outside, which is a nice bonus Only downside, which I wish I'd known, is simply that it beeps when the toast is ready, which is a good idea, unless you're surreptitiously making late night toast and don't want to wake anyone. Other than this, is it a great toaster, go for it!

Well, I have had it a couple of weeks now and........NO I don't hear a "high pitched noise" from the unit. I know that kids can get a ring tone that adults can't hear so maybe that is what's going on. I'm a senior but when I took a hearing test I was told that I have the hearing of a 40 year old. So maybe if you hear at the same level you're o.k. There isn't a single 4 slice toaster that has over four stars out there, no matter how much it costs. I don't know why they can't duplicate the fine two slice toasters out there but it is what it is. A minor issue I had was that when you take it out of the box it has decals over the place where the heat setting is displayed. Took me a run before I realized why the "countdown" feature didn't work. It was amusing to think of how many people sent it back because they didn't realize you have to peel them off. I give it four stars because it works.......but the browning isn't even. It's "patchy". I was kinda amazed when I was looking at brands about how many brands insist that their unit has "one side browning for bagels". You go to the Q&A comments to find out the do NOT. Seems like that should be something they can't advertise, but they do and do and.......THIS one actually toasts a bagel how I want it - Crispy on the top and soft on the bottom. Interestingly, even though they suggest "4" for the setting for toast, it is WAY too light for me. The "toast" barely shows ANY color at all. "5" is the minimum I find acceptable, The toast and the bagel use the same settings because the bagel has a longer run cycle when you use that setting. All in all it's a decent, nice looking toaster.

An absolutely wonderful toaster, over the years I have owned many, but this one is the best yet! This toaster has a space for 4 slices of your favorite bread product, a high lift lever to get those smaller items out like English muffins, an easy-to-read LED display, and two crumb tray slide-outs that make it easy to clean up. Plus, all of this with a trusted name, Cuisinart. I use mine daily, and the wife and I love it, and so will you.

Great toaster definitely recommend good features easy to use

Updated Oct 2022, after now 4+ Months, changed my Opinion.. Poor Toasting Quality Read On. I have added two more videos I can not recommend for regular slice bread toasting.. and not sure it would be any better for thicker slices.. as I experimented with that as well , didn't seem to make a difference. We spent a lot of time looking at reviews. We chose this toaster because of features and claims by others how well it made just pain bread toast as well that we could toast 4 slices vs. 2 at one time.. The features are nice and good. However, as far as toasting bed.. Poor results.. have to use the highest setting #7, once pop up, have to Flip the toast over to get the other side. See Video,.. however the reason it does not do so good with Thin Slice toast because the SLOTS are so wide the Elements Air Gap.. if a Texas Toast wide or Bagel it would toast Well, Also if You Pre-Heat the toaster in advance, because the Energy Heat at first is being Absorbed into the Toaster itself, so Pre-Heat it, then put your Thin Slice toast normal wonderbread type will do better and you will not have to toast twice. First setting you see in Video is 7 the highest, then after it pops up , I did it again at setting 3. You will see in the Video the results of both.. This is about a total 5 minute Video to do this.. All in all it is a nice toaster, we like the features. Just disappointed we have to toast Thin Slice Bread Twice, vs. Thick Slice. it is because of the Wide Gap for Thicker Bread that causes the problem. Would give it a higher rating otherwise.. So what we learned since we use 98% normal thin slice toast.. Would have purchased a Narrow Toast Gap vs. this version .. with the Wide Openings. Its a good toaster. But not so good for thin sliced bread. I do not recommend, after using it 4+ months..Disappointed Not worth the money, unless your just wanting appearance or a boat anchor, But as a toaster.. poor results for regular toast.. slices. have to toast Always twice and its always Uneven..

Works well.

This toaster arrived in very good condition and it was packed very well. I really like this toaster because it toast 4 slices of bread, which is great for sandwiches. The toaster does a good job in toasting my bagel, which really pleases me…I can’t say much more because it is a Cuisinart. shirley40

This is the second time I purchased this toaster. I had the previous one for over ten years and it was used daily. It was still working great, I just wanted a new one with the extra reheat feature. I totally recommend this toaster.

J’ai eu le même pendant 10 ans….. pas eu de problèmes ! J’imagine que se sera pareil avec ce dernier

First toast I have owned in 50 years that toasts from corner to corner. All my other toasters were 70-90% including a previous Cuisinart. Excellent toaster worth the money.

Product works well and is the second one I have had.
