This was a great purchase! We’ve made toast and English muffins each morning. It is very easy to use and has a nice stainless steel exterior. It goes well with my stainless steel appliances. There are six toasting levels and a digital timer to let you know when it’s ready.

I just love this toaster! I can use it for toast, bagels, waffles and more. I just press a product icon, choose the level of doneness, and push down the lever. The timer is already preset and the lever will pop up when done! It’s very easy to use. It has an easily accessible crumb tray at the bottom for easy cleaning.

Meh- like every other toaster out there, but a lot harder to turn on and off. Caution, the sides get VERY hot. Much hotter than other toaster I’ve ever had. The whole toaster is light- almost flimsy. Onoff button is very hard to manipulate, but works quickly to cancel an option when the toaster is started (like all toasters, it won’t start until the handle is pressed down, which is also pretty flimsy). Otherwise all other buttons work very quickly with a simple touch. Unfortunately, to turn it on and off you really have to find the EXACT SPOT on a small button and find the right combo of hold and press. Very inconvenient. On occasion it turned on or off in about a five second press. Most other times you have to press, wait, find it isn’t working, then keep going at it like a woodpecker until you hit it just right. Toast came out only a little uneven, like all toasters, but did come out true to the color on the digital panel. English muffins were an epic failure, toasting only about a half inch of the muffin on setting 3. On setting 4, it almost burned about an inch of each muffin, the very center was about right, but the bottoms were not toasted at all. So it’s like spinning a roulette wheel to figure out how to get it right. The only way to toast the whole muffin is to wait until the toaster is halfway through the cycle, cancel, turn the muffin, restart the toaster and watch til the timer is halfway through, then cancel again. Now you’ve got a burned top, an ok but a little darker center and a light brown bottom. Didn’t have any bagels to try, but I got the idea. Even though I didn’t have bagels, you already knew how something denser than a piece of white bread was gonna go. Pretty pricey for something that can only properly toast bread. And again, not being able to easily turn it on and off with a simple touch of a button does not make it handy. And to repeat, the toaster gets super HOT after doing 1 set of toast, so I wouldn’t be comfortable trying to toast anything else until the toaster cooled down for a while and also wouldn’t feel great about having the toaster next to anything while using it. For this price, I think you could find something better. toaster cool down.
