Good toaster when modified by user
It is so unfortunate that we are all victims of the quality issues that come with globalization. I have read the complaints about uneven toasting. And they are correct. It does toast unevenly, that is due to poor quality management at the factory where the Chinese slave labors are working. But do not fear!! You can actually fix this problem yourself with some very careful operations using a very thin straight edge screw driver or an exacto-knife!! What happens is the elements need to be separated slightly from the metal sides in order to heat. You will notice the portions of element wires that are in direct contact with the sides do not light up when you power your toaster (push the knob down) What needs to be done is this: Unplug the toaster, note which elements did not have separation from the metal side plates, gently pry that portion away from the side wall giving it just a very small gap. Do this to all portions of the element wires that are not gapped away from the side walls,...
Great toaster from a great, appliance-oriented company
A very simple and attractive toaster to match the red theme in our kitchen.
Pluses: Fits wide slices or bagels easily, removable crumb tray, sensible functions
Minus: Although the width is great, the length of the toaster slots is fairly short, so when I buy the nice European style bread that doesn't know about the small, square American dimensions I have to cut each slice in half.
this toaster is fine
I bought this toaster about 6 months ago from Amazon without reading the reviews. Shortly before it got here I noticed the review section and read all the horrible reviews for this toaster and became really concerned that the toaster wouldn't work properly. It came about six months ago, I've used it pretty much every day since then and it works just fine. No weird, uneven toast. No sticky handle. None of the scary stuff in the other reviews. Its pretty, and it works. Its a toaster.
