This is the greatest toaster ever. I especially like the bagel feature, cooks the center nice and crispy leaves the outer softer. Most toasters burn the outer part of a bagel. Toast come out perfect every time. Also chimes when it pops up. A bit pricey but worth the money.

Avoid this machine. This design has a major flaw - crumbs can get inside the LCD/LED screen. I am I unable to clean the inside screen unless I take it apart. Taking it apart involves ~14 screws on the bottom which are stripped on my model. If I was able to take it apart, no idea how much more work would be involved trying to clean the screen.

Toasts beautifully. No problems. QUIET! But the only drawback is that I buy all different kinds of artisan breads. If the slots were 1/2 inch longer, this would be the best toaster in the world. Bagels come out perfect. I'm able to hear the Beep (toasting finished), in other rooms of the house. It only beeps twice, but that's fine because it isn't obnoxious or annoying. If you have hearing problems, you won't hear it. This really is a great toaster, and I'm picky. If you're having problems, try reading the manual and learn how to use the toaster before you put up a negative review.

My wife choose this one and I thought it was a little pricey, but I am so glad we got it. Toasts evenly all over and has a modern design with digital settings in front. You only have to push a button and the bread or bagel lowers itself to be toasted. I would recommend it to anyone.

This toaster is awesome, I have tried the bagel function and it makes the bagels heated just right. I like the LCD screens, it makes it look futuristic and functional. I had read reviews that other people didn't like that it makes a tone to let you know your toast is ready but I like it because it's so quiet, without the tone you would forget about your toast. I am glad that I opted for this toaster!
