First, the heat up to cure the filaments was so full of smoke it stunk up the kitchen so I took it outside to do it again. It made us start coughing. Second, the first toast we did one side was not browned and the other side was way over done. I’ll update this if tomorrow it gets better. If not I’ll call to return it. That’s why I bought a new one after 14 years..uneven toasting.

I own many GE appliances but never a toaster and as always, I am not disappointed. I really like this little toaster more than I thought. I did a downsize and space is an issue. I read a lot of reviews before choosing this toaster. Slots are wide and there are more than enough toasting options. Yes, it does toast uneven if you want to be fussy but not to the point where is actually matters as mentioned in other reviews. I set it on 2.5 and it is more evenly toasted than not. For me it's perfect. No complaints here.

Finally a nicely designed all metal toaster that toasts consistently!! Have only used a few weeks but the build seems sturdy and the unit toasts evenly as expected. Minus one star for 2 small personal preferences: the slots could be slightly larger to better fit artisan breads and the lever doesn’t really have an extra lift feature for removing toast. Otherwise love this toaster!

We needed a basic toaster, and this fills the bill. Works exactly as it should. The crumb tray gets a workout, because we have "everything" bagel fans in house. Very clean looking, almost like the old chrome-plated toasters, except this one fits better on a shelf.

This toaster looks really nice and performs well. There is a cancel button as well as buttons for bagels and frozen items. There is also a dial for setting the lightness/darkness of the toasting. The toaster is simple and it works well. It is worth the money.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GE toaster toasts bread and bagels consistentlt every time. Every other toaster I've bought previously would suddenly start burning toast; the next day the toasrwe wouldn't even toast. I am religious about cleaning crumbs because I'm aware of the fire hazard.

I purchased a GE toaster because thru the years the appliances have preformed well and lasted for years with very minimal breakdowns. This toaster toasts dark on one side and light on the other so you have to stand over it and turn the bread. So, it doesn’t get used very much

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used about a month now. Toasts everything from toast to bagels evenly according to darkness selection. Sturdy design. Holds wider slices of bread and has two extra thick slots for thicker bread. Easy knob and button controls. This toaster replaced our old Quasinart digital toaster that malfunctioned. Very happy with this new toaster.

They don't make toasters like they use too...some will say. It doesn't apply to this one. This toaster toasts the bread evenly on both sides, the settings are accurate and it's a standard toaster, no frills or thrills, just a toaster that does what it's supposed to do by doing it right "Makes good toast".

It’s been along time since I have had a toaster that worked. Finally I have found the gold star of toasters IMO!!! It’s perfect every time. Browned on BOTH sides! Who knew! And did I mention its design is perfect. Looks great on my counter! And not cheap plastic! It’s metal!! Great buy at a great price. The GE toaster is my #1!! I have already told my friends to grab one! You can’t go wrong.
