There are many things we love about this toaster. The long slot (for artisinal breads), the view window, the clearly defined stages of browning (although this varies by type of bread, so be conservative (lower browning temp) until you know how the bread browning varies. We also like the reheat option for just a shade more color or because we got distracted and now the toast is cold. What is in dire need to change are 2 things:1. when the toast is finished and the machine pops it to the top, it is so forceful the some breads are actually launched OUT OF THE TOASTER, so make sure you have this on a counter or you will find your toast on the floor.2. the metal strip that holds the bread is insufficient for many breads - especially delicate breads. the notches are too far apart and the strip is not wide enough so sometime smallish slices fall beneath the toast holder strip. If this happens it is a MAJOR PRODUCT to remove the dropped piece. this limits the size and type of bread we can toast forcing us to use an air fryer or oven for those kinds. Plus it is a painful learning curve. I write this in the hopes that the designers will improve these 2 aspects of the toaster. If done so, we would rate it a 6 stars.

I have only had this toaster for a few weeks and so far I like the unit. It takes a while to dial-in the "browness" level you want but I think I have reached that point currently--I did have some fun experimenting however and the page of "browness levels included is helpful. I can't comment on durability yet--much too soon. I have had Dash products before and have been satisfied--but obviously only time will tell regarding durability. I like the outward appearance but how it works and how long it lasts are the major factors .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this toaster! All I have wanted is a way to see my food while it is toasting and someone finally did it! I have always been annoyed at toasters that level 3 is too light but level 4 is too dark. I no longer have that problem. I love being able to watch my toast so I get the perfect color and texture every single time. I would highly recommend this toaster!

I've had this toaster for about a year. It has some features I really like such as the cancel button and the reheat feature. The window looks nice and you can kind of see how dark your toast is getting but the back side is often darker. My biggest complaint is if you are not there to catch it when it pops up it will launch your bread up and on to the floor. I have wasted a few slices of bread that way. It did this today then when I tried another piece it wouldn't come on at all so I guess I'm shopping for a new toaster.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toaster is the best I’ve ever had, no more overtoasting hear because I can see the toast as it browns and that is so cool to me! The design is sleek, the toaster is not to big and it fits right in with my other electronics

It was good while it lasted. Have had this for approximately 18 months when I had to start increasing the time, to get bread to toast. Now it’s not even heating up enough to change color of bread, but heats enough to dry the bread out. Save your money and get a product that will last.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We tried this toaster since our other one recently broke and so far are thrilled. It definitely looks good on the counter and I love the window to be able to keep an eye on your toast. It is also simple and fast to clean when needed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family uses a toaster every single day and now we finally have one that looks nice enough to be left out on the counter. The aqua color is very nice, it gives off a vintage vibe. The clear front view is so convenient, you can always see how toasty your bread is and can stop it at anytime. My daughter loves the bagel feature, it only toasts the front side. The clear front and the bottom tray are both easy to remove for cleaning. We love it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dash clear view toaster is great. It’s sturdy, easy to use, and also super easy to clean. It works great for all kinds of items from bagels to pizza. I love that it’s compact and doesn’t take up a ton of room on our counter space but is also spacious for toasting. We use this toaster all the time. I highly recommend.

I've had my new toaster for about 2 weeks now and I really like it. As I like larger bread slices from round loaves, this toaster works beautifully. It toasts evenly and you can actually see it toasting. You can adjust the browning to your exact needs. Best toaster I've ever had. Read the enclosed instruction book to get the best results. My husband likes to toast his waffle using the defrost button. It defrosts first, then continues on with the perfect degree of browning that he likes. Great machine!
