I love this oven. My big one is an old commercial Viking, but I find myself using this little thing for more and more and more. Great piece of equipment well worth the price.

Nice review. I found some videos of this in action for others like me searching for reviews. Eric Ripert has some of videos of him creating dishes exclusively on this brick oven. http://aveceric.com

Oops, I meant “dinners,” not “diners.” I really don’t plan on baking any of my guests.

Nicole, I agree, a second oven will really come in hand for those big holiday diners!

Jeremy, unfortunately a 9″ x 13″ pan will not fit. The rack is 12″ square.

Thanks for an informative review. One more thing I’d like to know: what are the interior dimensions of the oven? Can you fit a standard 9 x 13 baking pan?

Thanks for this review! I’ve been looking at that very oven and was wondering how well it performs. I don’t have two ovens in my kitchen and sometimes I really wish I did (especially during holidays). This might be the answer

Elizabeth, sorry if I gave the impression that the oven got THAT hot on the outside. It’s not nearly hot enough to cook anything. Maybe keep your (already-warm) buns warm, but that’s about it.

Peter, the BRK-100 is the same as the 200 except without convection. The 300 is the same except it adds a rotisserie. I haven’t seen that one myself.

Great article! I am really curious about these ovens now. Susan, you mentioned the Cuisinart sister models BRK-100 and BRK-300. What are the differences between them?

Thanks

Thank you, Susan. (Ooooh!! It never occurred to me to have a chocolate counter! Where can I get one? )

Although I rarely bake only one loaf of bread, I must say this little oven is tempting. If our present toaster oven suddenly claps out, we’ll definitely seriously look at the Cuisinart oven.

I particularly like that the thermostat seems to work and that it appears to actually be able to make decent toast.

Does it seem like you could heat things up on the top of the oven when it is on? (Those ridges almost look like a mini grill.)
