Title: I love this toaster!
Review: This is one of the best toasters I have bought. The last one we had over 25 years but it was a small two slice toaster that I eventually sent into our RV. This toaster will handle those long slices, it does great on frozen bagels and English muffins. If you only want two slices the front section handles them perfectly. We absolutely love the check toast button, you push it, the toast raises and goes back down. Highly recommend!!!

Title: You can actually warm a sliced baguette in this toaster and it’s stainless exterior stays cool
Review: I have only had the toaster for 2 months, but so far I am VERY happy with it. Only once did it not cycle through the toasting cycle properly, but when I hit the cancel button it reset properly. It is a tad bulky looking, but I think it was an intentional design to keep the stainless exterior cool to touch. It is a handsome addition to my kitchen counter–I just wish it was self lowering when you put the bread in like the classic old Sunbeam automatic toasters. But since there are 2 separate bread slice compartments I don’t mind hitting the electronic start button to get the bread to lower.

Title: It’s good but for the money not sure
Review: It toasts well! Love the automatic lever free action for items getting toasted. But one side toasts a lot more than the other side esp once you get to settings 4 or higher. I like my breads well toasted both sides and hence a bit disappointed. I plan to keep it though for lot of other perks!

Title: Broke and seller won’t replace when under warranty
Review: The toaster broke after a few months use. It’s under warranty so Amazon directed me to the seller. They said they’d ship a new one by the end of October – no communication since and no toaster replacement. It’s expensive, so be aware if it breaks after the Amazon return period but within warranty, you could have a problem

Title: I like the large number of settings.
Review: Does what a toaster is expected to do, but our previous model had under half the settings, and would either toast too light or too dark, but not, “just right”. This one, with 9 levels allows me to select my toast the exact way I want it. Haven’t tried to do anything else, but if a toaster fails its most basic function–making toast–it doesn’t matter what else it might do. Plus, it fits the kitchen decor, and has a nice, solid feel when you press the levers. Overall, I like this unit.

Title: Toasting uneven
Review: I purchased this because I liked the long slice capability. Unfortunately whatever I toast comes out uneven and even burned around the edges. Toaster looks great and has nice options but for price I’d like my toast uniform.

Title: Best toaster out there!
Review: We love this toaster! Everything comes out just right – bagels, toast, frozen waffles. I was especially looking for a toaster with a retractable cord. I don’t want to turn over a hot toaster and wind up the cord underneath. There are few out there with retractable cord. Smooth operation, no clunking up and down to get toast in and out. Just press the button and it does it all. More expensive but worth it.

Review: I can’t believe Kenmore attached their name to this. It’s extremely slow on all settings, and all it really does after a prolonged wait, is to dry the bread (or roll,bagel etc.) to the consistency of a dollar store crouton.Disappointing to say the least. The only thing we like about it is the colour.I’m not sure about the wattage, but I think an Easy-bake oven would be stiff competition.Stay away from this ROC POS !!

Review: We bought this toaster because our old “4 slice toaster” had two slots that only fit two slices of bread. Note we have a toaster with 4 slots that don’t really fit ANY slices of bread. I guess if you only eat American style grocery store loaves of bread you’ll be find, but if your bread happens to be… um… bread-shaped then you’re going to have the same problem as us.It looks great and seems to be well made though.
