Hello and thanks so much for reaching out about your toaster. We're happy to hear you are enjoying some nice, warm bagels and hope it has made your mornings more enjoyable. The time it takes to toast is dependent on the settings. So depending on the Browning setting, it may take longer to get your bagel ready. We hope this helps. - John@GEA

What’s not to love? Freshly toasted bread and bagels? Yes, please! We're so glad you're enjoying all the great features of this appliance. We love the 7 Shade Settings—offering a variety of toast options with adjustable shades from lightest to darkest to satisfy everyone’s preferences—and the Removable Crumb Tray, which makes cleanup a breeze with a pull-out tray you can easily empty. Hello, breakfast sandwiches! Thank you!
