Construction & Use:
1) This model is all stainless steel. None of the "no-stick" coating inside which gives off vapors harmful to pets (especially birds) and people. It has a Steam Clean function to remove any build up which you can then just wipe away.
2) The quality of the oven and accessories are high, durable steel.
3) The oven has almost no sound to it when running.
4) Steam is created by filling a low profile water reservoir that attaches to the side of the oven (does not result in much additional width to the oven).
5) The manual states all materials that contact food are BPA free.
6) The dial and LCD display are easy to use and read.
7) There is an interior light button so you can more easily check on your cooking foods.
8) Easy set up and detailed instruction booklet on how every setting works and how to use.
9) 9 Unique cooking functions to select from
Functions:
1) Toast - works well and toasts evenly with multiple darkness settings
2) Convection bake - circulates the hot air for even baking of cakes, cookies, etc. I make "single serving" baked desserts that are gluten free and often vegan. They have turned out well using convection bake. I am also going to try making these using steam bake to add moisture.
3) Steam bake - adds steam to the baking process. It is supposed to be great for roasting meats and making custard style desserts, though I have not tried these yet. I used this function to make homemade baked french fries and they came out crisp but much less dried out-- and you can eliminate using oils when steam baking (roasting) vegetables because it adds that moisture through the steam. Re-heats leftovers without drying out.
4) Steam - for steaming vegetables and meats. Can also be used for proofing breads, & once it's proofed, you can switch to the bread function to bake it.
5) Broil or broil steam. I have used this function several times with very good, even broiling results.
6) Super Steam - Ideal for rice, though I have not used this function yet. Can also be used for vegetables.
7) Warm - keeps already cooked foods warm. I used to keep wrapped tortillas warm and soft before serving.
8) Bread - I have not used, but there is a setting for making breads which utilizes steam and then convection bake, much like professional bake ovens.
Top reviews from other countries
They eventually took my call after 1 hour 43 minutes (can you believe it? I stayed on because another review said they ignored an email.)
Promised to send a new rack. I hope it will be the right one, as the agent didn't seem to understand the Cuisinart terminology (it's called "oven rack" in the manual, but when I described it to him, he called it the "wire rack").
The steam functions really do work as advertised (I won't waste time explaining how or why, since others have done so already).
This would have been a 5 star review except that the control system on this oven is TERRIBLE. Every single function has to be set to a timer, so it doesn't behave like an oven at all. You can't turn it on and have it preheat, then put the food in and set timer when you are ready. You have to preheat it on a timer, then when you're ready to put the food in, all you can do is shut it off and start a new timed oven cycle to actually cook your food. You can't change the temperature OR the timer, or the cook function without "Cancelling" the current operation and starting over.
Cuisinart apparently let software engineers decide how you should use their kitchen appliance. AWFUL user interface.
I first tested the standard steaming function with ginger-chicken, cut into bite-size pieces and marinated. I estimated it would take about 18 mins steaming on stove top, so I set the same amount of time. I can see it was not producing the heavy steam I expected and at the end of the 18 mins, the meat was cooked well outside but not in the deepest part of the dish. I then switched to "super-steam" at 300F for an extra 10 mins. The result was perfect.
After that I mainly used super-steam for Chinese dishes (tofu with scallops, prawns, meat pies, whole fish, while chicken). I tried other super-steam settings with 225F/250F/275F/300F all with great results.The super-steam function produces a lot more steam then the standard steam function, and the added heat more closely simulate the stove-top steaming environment. I found 250F a good starting point to experiment.
