Oster - Inspire 2-Slice Wide-Slot Toaster - Black

If you're looking for a toaster that really works, and it is not expensive and works on the bagels and bread slices of all sizes?, this is it. I have bought some very expensive toasters in my lifetime but this one, at the price point?, cannot be beat!, when it comes to value and ease of use . Would definitely recommend it and buy again!

Oster - Inspire 2-Slice Wide-Slot Toaster - Stainless-Steel is a simple and easy to use toaster that has proved to be very sturdy. After 1 month of heavy use with my grandchildren, no issues regarding workmanship has arisen. Toaster works as advertised.

Settings seem to be accurate for the darkness I prefer on toast, and seems okay for other things, too. The toaster actually seems to need additional weight...moves around too easily when wanting to stop toasting before done. Other than that, works fine.

So far so good. I had an Oster toaster that was many years old and was not toasting as well when it was new. Decided to go with this one for 4 reasons. First, it was number three on a list of best toasters. Second, unlike the first on the list at $99, this toaster was under $20. Third, it is black and grey/silver, which matches the other appliances in the kitchen. My only criticism is the retired toaster had metal sides and this new one is made of plastic (like most everything else in the world these days). Not a problem so long as the casing holds up as long as the heating elements.

I've owned lots of toasters. There was always something they never quite did well . . . . either didn't brown enough, or burnt the bread and you couldn't get the settings in between, bread got stuck because the holders didn't work, not enough room for bagels, only one side heated up, or they'd just stop working altogether. Not so with this one! Everything works and works well. Ample room for bagels, heats evenly, settings are perfect and easy to adjust. Never thought I could love a toaster, but I love this one.

Not much that you can see about a toaster because it says it all in its name. What I really like about this first off is that it has compared to what I've used for so many years, a lot of various settings for toast, bagels frozen etc. And then you have your dial to go from light to heavy toasting. Beyond all that it has a very nice Sleek look to it. I love the blue lighting that highlights all your settings also. All in all, it does what it's supposed to do and I've had absolutely no problems.

I have always trusted Oster products for quality, but our last toaster was a gift so I can't complain too much. It lasted a few years until the holding mechanism broke or wore out and my slices of bread would not stay down to be toasted. (The heaters continued to work just fine). But, I bought this Oster toaster and it works very well, in fact, even better than our previous brand when it was new. My Oster even looks better than my old one.

My very old toaster died and I decided I wanted one with wide slots to accommodate bagels. I read the reviews and this one looked like a good choice. The cost was not that much and I was very happy about the "frozen" feature that will unfreeze the bread first then toast it. It works great. The only thing that I would have liked different is a choice of colors. It only came in black/silver. I would have liked it in white/silver but it's still a great toaster. Crumb tray is also easy to use.
