[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the product need more insulation barrier because after you finish toasting or while toasting the toaster is very hot to the touch on my counter top at #3 sitting. Need to be careful around small children. NOT KIDS FRIENDLY.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We decided to try a GE Brand of toaster. What a classy elegant 4 slice toaster! It is simple to use. The design is classy, clean, and functional. We love the variety of toast options that has 7 shades of doneness. We especially love how turning the knob "clicks" to the number selected to how much you want your toast done (lightly to dark). The slots are big enough for anything you want toasted. It toasts everything perfectly. This toaster was well thought out. It looks great on our countertop. It is easy to clean as well. We also got it at a great sales price. We would highly recommend this GE 4 slice toaster.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toaster is awesome! Does someone in your house like their toast dark? No problem. Set the dial and pop in the bread. Does someone else like it lightly toasted? No problem. Set the dial and pop in the bread. You can toast a bagel on one side and toast on the other at the same time! No more waiting in line to use the toaster!

Since there are now three adults living in one space, for the most part, this toaster has been an excellent upgrade from our old two-slice model. The design is a nice touch in our kitchen, with easy to use controls. The performance, however, is inconsistent. We have figured out how to best achieve our desired "toastiness" through patience and tweaking. When the browning is perfect, it is VERY perfect. And, because each of us has a different preference for our toast color, the tweaking becomes necessary. This toaster has been the closest to perfect in performance to date.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is our second GE toaster. We've used the two-slice, smaller toaster for over a year now and decided to purchase this larger four-slice model. We've used anticipate this larger model to have the same excellent performance as our smaller model.

Just set up this toaster today. It is a good looking Appliance however, I can see where fingerprints and smudges are going to be a problem all over this toaster. I went through the set of procedures and then made my first two pieces of toast. I had the setting on seven or maximum browning and it took a really long time and unfortunately came out rather light. Haven't decided whether or not, I will be keeping this toaster yet.

So far I like the toaster. My last two were Cuisinarts. They are more expensive but don't toast evenly. The GE maybe takes a little longer but I like that the bagels or rolls come out crisp on the outside but softer on the inside. The controls however are a little harder to turn.

Produces great toast but even after 8 months, the toaster emits the smell of burning plastic upon use. I make sure to clean out the crumb tray and have not toasted anything sticky, but the smell persists. I had a GE dishwasher that was also having this problem with the dry cycle, so I guess GE heating elements are incompatible with some part of the construction.

This takes the ease of toasting multiple bagels and bread to an all new level when preparing breakfast for a large family.

Like it. However the numbers for the darkness are on to see Also, the one it replaced showed how to place bagels in the toaster. That was helpful.
