We went from a 2-slice toaster to this one. The stainless steel look is really nice, with the housing and buttons/slide also stainless steel. The outside of the toaster stays cools irrespective of how many slices you're toasting. The top of the toaster, however, and to be expected, is very hot. So, keep your hands away from the stainless steel on the top of the unit. When you toast, the Cancel button will illuminate in the event you need to stop the toasting process before completion. Two additional buttons, Bagel and Frozen, also illuminate if you chose one of them. All in all, we are enjoying this toaster and believe it is deserving of a 5-star review.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very pleased with this 4-Slice toaster by GE. There is three pre-set custom functions and seven different shade settings to choose, from light to dark toast. I really like the stainless steel finish because it provides durability and looks nice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GE toaster is a great toaster, it has 7 settings to get just the right shade on my toast. It also has pre-set functions to give your toaster more options. It has 1500 watts of power also it will defrost bagels in no time. It is also stainless steel for easy clean up and shine. I just love my new toaster it heats fast and evenly all the time!

I love this toaster. I like how each side is individually controlled for just how my family likes it. I would definitely recommend getting this toaster if your family is like mine. Everyone can get their toast or bagel as light or as dark as they like.

Have had our toaster about a week and absolutely love it! It is definitely aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. Most importantly, we love the wide openings for the bread and it works great! We like sourdough and sometimes has been difficult to toast, but not with this toaster! Good value too!!

I received a toaster/oven/airfryer for Christmas, then gave my old toaster away. While I really like the Christmas gift appliance, it did not toast bread or bagels well at all. After researching different toasters, I bought the GE 4 slice toaster, and love it's functions and reliability. I can depend on it to make perfect toast, toasted bagels, and toast perfect frozen waffles every time! LOVE IT!

Looks great on the dark granite countertop. Excellent design and the external does not get hot even at the highest setting. The toast browns almost evenly on both sides of bread, unlike the other toasters I have had in the past 25 years in which one side browns at the setting while the other side is almost burnt. This toaster, so far since I've only toasted on slice of honey wheat bread, is perfect. The underside cord holder is a plus so there isn't a lot of cord, even with a twist tie, dangling around to the outlet. The wide slots are truly wide for bagels. Another great feature is that the finished toasting pop-up is at the right height. This toaster's handles do not allow to go beyond the manufacturer's adjustment.

I got this toaster as a gift, to replace an old one. It's a beautiful design. It's a little slow to toast, compared to other toasters I've had, but that's okay. I think it's a little slow because I like my toast light, and so it goes slow so as not to burn it. It does a great job on that. I love it!

Just received my toaster, and after completing the set up instructions, made an English muffin. It turned out beautifully but I started out on shade of 2, and next time will use 3 and see if it browns a bit more without burning. Love how the buttons are lit up, and the look. I only wish that the crumb catchers were able to be pulled out from the front for cleaning, not in the back. Happy with the price I paid.

This toaster is so beautiful. It looks amazing on the counter but you have to be wise about how much space a 4 slice toaster will take up. Luckily our coffee machine is very slim in comparison. I love that there's a bagel option. Wish there was a manual that showed you how dark your toast would be for each number on the dial. Could have sworn I saw it as one of the picture slides when purchasing but we learned thehardware. 3.5 is the perfect toast. Haven't tried cleaning yet. I imagine since it's stainless steel, it may need something else less standard to keep it shiny but it's a toaster, the only thing we touch is the little lever. Highly recommend the toaster.
