Cuisinart CSO-300 adds steam to usual toaster oven arsenal

Does this $299 toaster oven live up to the price? Our team weighs in.

With multiple steam cooking settings, the ; successfully expands the functionality of the common toaster oven, and it sports a luxurious, easy-to-use interface, as well.

At $299, that new steam functionality doesn’t come cheap. On more traditional settings like toasting and broiling, the CSO-300 couldn’t consistently beat the less expensive competition, and when it did, it usually wasn’t by much.

Creative home chefs looking for a powerful, versatile alternative to their full-size oven should give the CSO-300 first consideration, but those just looking for something to heat up Pop-Tarts and Red Barons should stick with something less expensive.
