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.
Sleek minimal design. Toasts efficiency. It has a reheat feature, which is new to me, and I like this feature for when I drift off to any distractions. It cleans easily and the finish stays fresh. Thus far, no yellowing of the white color around the heated areas. Does not get overly hot with use. I'm happy with this choice of purchase.
This toaster doesn’t toast both sides of the bread evenly. One side is toasted while the other isn’t.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My toaster finally failed, and I was looking for one that evenly toasts without taking as long. I like that I can use it for bagels and thicker slices. No extra buttons that might fail. This fits the bill, and I would buy again.
