Cuisinart CPT-120 Electronic Cool Touch 2-Slice Toasters

This toaster is compact but has everything you could need. It has slots wide enough for homemade bread and bagels, a reheat and defrost button and a cancel button. It is a very powerful toaster for sandwich bread. The first time I used it I was too excited to read the instructions first so I set the LED dial at 5 which was the level I used on my Toastmaster. That was a mistake because I burnt the toast crisp. This toaster I only have to set to a 2 to get my toast a nice brown shade. It really puts off the heat. I don't eat bagels so I can't say how it does on them. On Toaster Strudels it works well at a level 4 or 5 setting.

I love this toaster and would buy it again!

I bought the Cuisinart CP-120 toaster and I am more than happy with it. The toaster is of high quality and automatically adjusts to any thickness of bread that you place in it. Also, you will never have to reach down into the toaster to retrieve small pieces of bread because the platform that holds the bread can be brought all the way up to the top of the toaster. It toasts very evenly and the various settings like "Bagel" and "Defrost" are useful. These settings keep you from ever having to toast an item a 2nd time because it was not done. The outside of the toaster never gets hot, (only warm) so you won't get burned. The toaster comes in White or Red.

I have no complaints about this toaster. It has great features including defrosting. It's lightweight and easy to clean. The red color goes extremely well with my kitchen. I have always said you get what you pay for and with this toaster you get the best.

"Big Red" is not exactly what I would call compact, but he's real
handsome in a retro sort of way. More importantly,
he delivers perfect toast every time. With all dials and
buttons working the way they should and a 3 year warranty, this toaster exudes confidence.

After one month of use I have no complaints about this toaster. It toasts our thicker homemade bread very well but I have to remember to turn the dial down if using store bought bread. My husband uses it for his bagels and I haven't heard any grumbles. It is east to clean and takes up very little space on the counter top. I bought this toaster because it was a good value even though it had a couple of poor reviews that it didn't really toast but just warmed the bread. I haven't had that problem. Haven't tried the defrost settings and may never use them. I'm happy as long as it continues to work and last a long time.
