I was pleased to see this is a Wirecutter pick. I purchased it as a replacement for the same model that was 8 years old and beginning to toast less efficiently. Very satisfied!
Bought this on advice of Wirecutter that usually steers me well, but compared to our last Delongi toaster, this one just doesn’t cut it. It feels like really cheap plastic and even on the highest setting, it doesn’t come close to the level of toasting from frozen that our last toaster achieved. Also, the settings are confusing - how is the bagel setting setting different from choosing no setting? Just seems cheap to me.
