This is a beautifully built toaster. It toasts my bread evenly and deliciously. I splurged on this toaster but I'm so glad I did. This will be in my kitchen for many years. I returned a toaster to Zwilling before purchasing my current one, and the return process was smooth and efficient. Very happy with this purchase!
Just started using my new toaster and it works as expected. Bread and bagels browned evenly. and crisp. The settings and buttons are clear and the overall design is great.
