The toaster is way too slow - it takes forever to toast a slice of bread. Same problem with older toaster - same brand. Bought it because it was cheap.
I bought this to replace another toaster. It was a good value and works well. The toasting is not as uniform as my previous toaster, but is acceptable for the inexpensive price.
If you want simplicity and functionality this toaster has it! Easy to use, looks good on the counter, has plenty of settings and the lift-up feature means you can get your toast out without burning your fingers.
This little toaster is a replacement for our larger 4 slice toaster which finally bit the dust. Now that our children are grown and out on their own this toaster was a perfect fit for us and it has more features than our previous toaster
Thank you for this request for a review. I have contemplated writing to YOU. I have a problem with my toaster. One side of the bread is too brown, while the other side is not toasted enough. I have adjusted the temp knob several times but get the same result. I would really like to exchange it, if possible. I will answer the questions below in view of my comment here. Thanks for any help you can give me. ~Joyce
After reading product reviews for many toasters, we settled on the Cuisinart. It seemed to have the features we needed at a price we were willing to pay. Nothing fancy - just the thing to toast 2 slices of bread without burning them. The toaster can also accomodate bagels, which we appreciate.
