Pat, I’m sorry you’re having this problem and wish I could be of some help. I have not encountered this so I’m afraid I can’t offer any insights as to a solution. Good luck working with Cuisinart to get this resolved.

Hi,
I have been looking for an answer to my problem. I just received this oven for an early Christmas present. I love it….except that it starts beeping soon after I put bread in to toast and also when I bake something. If I turn it off and then turn it on again…it doesn’t do it. Am I doing something wrong? The instruction booklet doesn’t give a trouble shooting page and when I called Cuisinart…they just said to send it back. I don’t want to go through that bother, if I could be doing something wrong. Can you help me? Thanks, Pat

That is really an interesting review. I’d love to see this and will look for it.

Thanks Susan, darn it, probably too small of an interior for me to justify it. Thanks for the dimensions!

Hi Susan, this is a tempting device if I ever saw one.. maybe it is a good thing I’m a long way from the States..

I doubt a La Cloche would fit, but the oven chamber is so small that it, itself, acts like a cloche, so no steam or cloche is needed. The interior is about 12 x 12 inches and just under 6 inches high from stone to top element.

I would be using it in the basement of our RV. Can you tell me if a La Cloch or the French bread pan would fit into this oven?

Wandering quilter, I don’t have an over thermometer worth a darn, but from the way I’m observing it baking, I would say that 500F is about right. Just be aware that it also gets quite hot on the outside, which might have implications if you’re using it in a small space.

Uh oh… this is going to get me in a world of trouble, I can see it now. I could really use that in the RV! Does it really heat up to 500 degrees? The convection oven I bought says it will, but it tops out at 300.
