Review Of The Cuisinart TOB-195 Oven

When most people think about small kitchen appliances, the Cuisinart name might be what most people remember. Cuisinart was purchased in the 1970's by the Conair Corporation, but the trademark for Cuisinart still remains and holds strong. Originally Cuisinart was a huge designer for just food processors that were endorsed by Julia Child and James Beard. Their products now are more than just food processors, for example the TOB-195 Oven.

The Cuisinart TOB-195 Oven is a toaster oven that doubles as a broiler. With 6 slices of bread capacity, this .6 cubic foot capacity is a great size for reheating products, broiling your food, toasting bread, and even baking pizza. There are other settings that that oven comes with such as bagel settings and defrost settings. These preset options ensure that all types of small food items including bread can be heated up.

With a shade control that works with the sensor, it can regulate the temperature inside the oven for all the different types of food you hope to cook. This is a different toaster oven then you may remember from the 1980's. The controls, timer, and clock have an electronic touch pad to make it easier to program. One of the features many people like is that the interior is easy to clean. Another advantage of the Cuisinart TOB-195 Oven is that the alarm will sound if your food is in danger of burning.


One issue that people may not like about the Cuisinart TOB-195 is the fact that you have to let it heat up before you use it. The toaster oven needs to get to the desired temperature before you can use it. The good thing is that this toaster oven is a lot faster than the conventional oven. This can be annoying if you are in a rush and you have to wait for the toaster oven to heat up. One other disadvantage is the way the machine is constructed. The front door has to come down in order to open up the oven. It flips down and it's easy to burn yourself if you aren't used to it. With all that being said customers that have this Cuisinart oven highly recommend it due to its superb baking skills, functionality, and the way it's designed.

Always remember to read the instructions before using your Cuisinart TOB-195. It's packed with tips, and the instructions on how to setup, preheat, and what steps are needed to clean the oven.

The thing you should remember is the door. Just like most conventional ovens the door flips down, but with a toaster oven, it usually rests on the handle. It can be awkward if your counter is small or you are not used to having a small toaster oven sitting on your counter. Just always remember that the door will be hot.


Always start by getting the temperature from the food packaging. There are preset controls, but the temperature and time that is suggested by the particular food is better to go by than the presets. As you get used to the oven, you may see you will need to modify the time based on the product to get the correct heating of your particular meal.
