Very affordable but cheap. I am a long time Cuisinart product user but am disappointed. Does not toast evenly. One side darker than the other. To toast English muffin I need to set on 7 and use the bagel setting to not have a gummy texture English muffin. Guess you get what you pay for. I do like that it has a smaller foot print. Fits better in my cupboard. Next time I will spend more money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Didn't work from the first time plugged in! Nothing from the heating elements, to say we were disappointed is an understatement! It was to replace an old Cuisinart toaster so I was counting on the quality and integrity. What a waste, we have to pay shipping to return a defective product!

This toaster has a nice design, but it toasts unevenly. The lower half of a bagel or piece of toast comes out much darker. And, the control knob on this toaster doesn’t seem to work. When turned down to level 2, it still toasts quite darkly.

Very uneven toasting. Could never find a good setting. The dial did not click in, just loosely turned. Tried to use it for a week. Exchanging it for a Kitchen Aid.

For purposes of toasting it does that. The side that faces the middle toasts much darker than the side that faces the outside. Very hard to get a brown toast on the outside without almost burning the side facing inside. The bagel function makes no sense as that should shut off the heaters on one side, usually the middle but that is not the case. The “bagel” function is essentially useless. If you have a bagel with cheese on th stop you are about to have a mess. But it is a toaster and it works. The other functions we have not used.
