The "Toaster" is known to have a poor quality lift gate. Can you please tell me how installation went and the quality of this item? Is it similar to the OEM part or better quality?

The overall quality of this item was very good and is still holding up 6 months or so later. You will need to either salvage your old seals or get new ones. There are none included with the part.

Install was easy but if your clips are old n brittle they'll need to be replaced

The liftgate handel looks great and works great. I also installed 3m tape behide. It when I installed for extra strength. Its easy to install. Just 4 10mm bots and some push pins to hold the back cover on

I am very unhappy with this toaster. The reason I brought it was because CR rated it high. If I had paid attention to the reviews by other amazon comsumer I would have not brought it. I will replace it asap. I wish I had kept my very old toaster. I hope this is helpful to you

I can not remember exactly how long after purchase it was but approximately 6 months it stopped popping the toast up. I took it in to the service center and I believe I got a new toaster. I have had it for 3 years since and am very happy with it.

I didnt have this toaster - I had the 2 slice. I had to throw it out because it stopped popping up and burned everything.

Mine did the same thing and in order to get it fixed or replaced, you have to send it back to the company and be stuck without a toaster until it is fixed or replaced. You may also take it to a repair center if you have one close enough. I live in Pittsburgh area and the closest one is across the state in Philadelphia.

Ya know, I can't recall exactly. But, it wasn't a cheap feeling or looking part, it's working beautifully, given me a ton of low end power. It came with a full set of Fel-Pro gaskets and a new bracket too. It seams that most of these parts are quite specific throughout all of the retailers so I wouldn't worry too much. If you don't like it, Amazon makes it real easy to return, as would all the decent online retailers. It is a quality part, WELL worth the money, and way better than the old spider injector I replaced it with. Sorry I couldn't answer your question directly but wanted you to know I did not think is shoddy, cheap aftermarket. It's solid. Ya know, I can't recall exactly.

yes. I really love this toaster, especially the level of toast control and the lever that raises the toasted item for easy removal

Yes it works great. I purchased it because of the Consumer Reports rating. It toasts great and is easy to clean. Doesn't show fingerprints. The only thing wrong with it is that the lettering wears off but by that time you will know what each button is for. I recommend this toaster.

We love the toaster. We did have to return the first one. One of the riser bars in the middle was broken. Amazon's was so quick to take or it with credit and an immediate replacement. Settings on toast side are 1 1-2 NatBagel side was slightly warm. It didn't bother us so we checked it out just now. Really no problem unless a very young child was there.again. We love it

My toaster has a made in China sticker on the bottom. It is an excellent unit with quality parts.

I was looking for exactly that solution. My old faithful has packed it in on the toaster timer and I had a flaming piece of toast when I came back to the kitchen. I just want to replace the toaster shut off...or buy a new unit that will fit in the old under cabinet brackets. Who repairs switches?

I love the toaster, but the cord was weird place. I wrap it undernear on the hook-like legs and it works fine that way. Good Louck with that. Jo

Yes - I had that exact problem, so it is clearly a defect. I called Cuisinart. My toaster was still under the three-year warranty, so they offered to have me ship it to them for repair. The cost for that would be about $30 - a $10 charge, plus the cost of shipping. HOWEVER, and I hesitate to include this here on Amazon, but... if you bring your toaster to Bed Bath & Beyond, they will either send it to Cuisinart for you (at no charge) or they will replace it. (They do carry the TOB-40 in stores.) Yes, for real. You do not need to have a receipt or have purchased the toaster there. I am not one to take advantage of a business, but they seem happy to attract loyal customers by taking care of issues like this. Of course, you can also see what Amazon can do for you.

I haven't had mine long enough to tell. So far it is the best toaster we have ever owned. consistently perfect toast and bagels. Easy to use. Cuisinart is a known brand so I am not worried about the failure of the motor.

I purchased one before they were discontinued, thank goodness. I had one previous to that one where the white paint started to look shabby. That one's still in good working order. When the silver one wears out, I'll go back to using that one. Too bad they were discontinued. I love this toaster. I'd be reluctant to try to buy a used one, however.

Read any ONE of the SEVEN one star reviews for this product, for a detailed explanation of the many KNOWN issues this opener has. If you had it installed (and it's still under warranty), see if you can get it replaced with another brand. That is what I did (with a very reliable Chamberlain). Genie continues to sell this model despite the "known" circuit board issue that so many have had problems with . . . . Good luck.
