Looks nice on the counter.

Shorted out and burned up three weeks ago. Had it for about 5 months, only used once a day for a bagel, and it's not heavy enough for a door stop.

My Tech Knowledge is I have used a toaster for over 50 years. The pros; it looks nice.

The slowest toaster I have ever owned. (There are some kind of plates over the heating elements). The springs that pop the toast up work kinda ok for bread, but put a full size bagel in and they won't push them to the top. I can see why tongs are...

This toaster is big improvement over the prior toaster. Kids use it every morning to make toast, bagels, English muffins, etc. Works very well (no burned toast, bagels or English muffins so far). The wide slots fit any kind of bread or bagel we have...

Have to figure out what type of item requires which setting. Some trial and error as with any toaster.
