[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, the toaster looks great! It has a steel casing that will look great in any kitchen. It does seem to attract smudges so you may want to wipe it off after every use. It has a streamlined and modern look with very intuitive controls. It's easy to operate and does what it's supposed to do quite well. The only caveat is to make sure you run a cycle or two with nothing in it so you don't have that "new,metallic" taste imbued into your toast/bagels/etc. Another solid product from a company that has been making them for years.

First, I prefer to review products after I believe I’ve given them plenty of time and use. That said, here it is after about 2 weeks and very minimal use. The toaster is so much lighter in weight than my last one that it makes me wonder how good the internal parts are and how long they’ll last. The external of the stainless steel looks nice but fingerprints are horrible. Why can’t manufacturers make a stainless steel finish that doesn’t hold fingerprints? (Like they say, we can send a man to the moon…) The settings are ok, the toast settings are a bit tiny to see. One thing my last toaster had was a power light. We really liked that feature as it reminded us to unplug it when not in use. My last toaster lasted 16 years. I’ll be curious to see how long this one lasts.

I replaced a GE toaster which I bought about thirty five years ago. My only dislike about the new toaster is the cord being wrapped around underneath the toaster.. What was wrong with the cord coming from the end of the toaster, It wrapped around the bottom of the toaster very nicely. Who turns their toaster upside down to secure the cord??

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.

Other reviewers toasters seem to do good toasting at different settings.Mine, however, doesn't actually toast with color at setting number 5. Seems odd in that it has 13 settings. #5 is the ninth setting; they have half numbers. But it does a good job of even toasting, even if two-thirds of the settings are useless unless one only wants warm bread. So I give a three as I regard it as average.

Beautiful looking on our counter, perfect size for bagels and home made bread. Makes perfectly toasted bread and works on both sides at once. Perfect size for the two of us. And what I secretly really like is the ease of simply pushing Cancel to bring to toast up instead of struggling with the lever.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great looking toaster, one that you don’t feel embarrassed to leave in the counter. It’s got a sleek design that is attractive and the stainless steel makes it look very modern. It toasts as well as any other toaster, and gives you some options to perfectly toast bread, bagels or english muffins. It is a little pricey but you get a really good looking toaster for the money.

Compared to other toasters I ordered, this one felt more solid and well built. Everything was brand new with no blemishes. It was properly packed for shipping. The lever that lowers the food down works perfectly and my food heats up decently – I use it mostly to heat frozen waffles so the times where it came out concave taught me that I needed to increase the heat setting just a bit more. I also press the ‘frozen’ button. The food gently pops up when done and doesn’t fly out of the toaster like some other brands. I thought I would be missing out but having a digital toaster, but this does everything I need it to do.

Beautiful model and works pretty good. Never understood why one side of toast gets more done than the other, in toasters these days. Same with this one, but love the look and the fact that there are separate settings for frozen items and for bagels. Overall a good toaster.

Attractive model that has a deep tray for bagels and large toast. The dials are useful. The big problem is that when you toast a bread or anything, it is inconsistent. One side of the bread may be done as you like it but the other side is burnt. That's a quality control issue in manufacturing. Nice product but if it were easy to return it, I would. Buyer beware! I should have followed the Consumer Reports ratings!
