This is my 5th Cuisinart toaster/oven. My 2nd toaster/air-fryer.My last one has digital controls and it was getting out of sync with the physical knobs after about 2 years usage. It is still usable but is hard to zero in the temperature and the function I wanted. That is why I bought this one with all mechanical controls. By comparison, this one is more like retrofitting a toaster with an oven into one box. It is not as logically laid out as the digital control one that I had. But as long as it can last, if it will be, I don’t mind. The toaster function cannot select the number of slices as my old one. However the result is this one seems to me has better toasting results. The fan cannot be separately controlled as my old oven but I don’t care for this ability. The heating elements were bare in my old oven. Now they are shielded with a radiator-like metal. I think this is an improvement cause some the food I put in {using the top shelf for air-frying} is almost touching the heating elements.I am happy with this purchase but with couple concerns:1) The packaging uses two boxes making it very hard to take out one after the other.2) Inside the package, the air-fryer mesh is stored in the oven while the tray/griddle/rack is stored at the bottom of the box. This making the tray/griddle/rack easily missed and tossed away by accident as implied by other reviewers stated missing tray/rack.3) The tray is now made of some aluminum-looking material while my old Cuisinart had a stainless steel tray. I prefer stainless steel.4) It is stated in the product page that there are forever plastics in the griddle and may be in the tray. This should be avoided especially when the environment is with high temperature.These are just my concerns but not enough for me not to give it a full 5-star review.
