" ... I was very skeptical about a new toaster. ... But this may sound crazy, the toast tastes better because it toasts it so perfect. ... "
" ... MUCH better than our two slice toaster ... "
" ... Best toaster we have ever owned. ... "
" ... As for the toasting, I have not had any issues, when toasting waffles make sure to put defronst (if you are taking eggos from the freezer). ... "
" ... Very nice toaster and I have been through quite a few before this. ... Sure enough, it toasts evenly--which you'd hope all toasters do, but they don't--and it is simple with a nice design. ... "
" ... I replaced my 2 slice toaster with this 4 slice toaster. ... "
" ... It makes toast. ... "
" ... We are pleased with the function and look of this toaster. ... "
