Overview
Amazon Basics' 4-slice toaster offers 6 browning levels, a dedicated bagel setting, defrost mode and a cancel button, controlled by two independent slide levers for two-slice pairs. It's a straightforward toaster for households that need to toast four slices at once.
- 6 browning settings across two independent lever pairs
- Dedicated bagel and defrost functions
- 1600W element with removable crumb tray
- Cancel button for stopping mid-cycle
Pros and cons
- Toasts four slices or bagel halves in one cycle
- Dial settings click into place instead of drifting
- Cancel button stops toasting mid-cycle
- Lever mechanism reported to fail around the one-year mark
- Larger footprint takes up meaningful counter space
Performance notes
Toasting is split across two independent lever-and-dial pairs, each covering two slices, so you can run different settings for bread versus bagels in the same batch. The bagel setting toasts the cut side while tempering the outer crust, and defrost mode adds time to toast bread straight from the freezer.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Amazon Basics 4-slice toaster toast both sides of a bagel?
The bagel setting toasts the cut side fully while tempering the outer crust, so it won't scorch the rounded side the way a standard toast setting can.
How many independent toasting zones does it have?
Two, each covering two slices, so you can pick different browning levels for bread and bagels in the same batch.
Is there a risk of the toaster failing early?
One buyer reported the lever mechanism breaking after about a year of regular use, so longevity beyond the first year isn't guaranteed for every unit.
