Overview
A 4 slice toaster with wide slots for bagels and thick-cut bread, a Sure-Toast setting that evens out browning on a single slice, a bagel function that toasts one side and warms the other, and Auto Boost to lift smaller items like English muffins.
Some call the slots generous enough for bagels and thick homemade loaves, while others say certain grain breads have to be squeezed in with the tops hanging out. Toasting consistency also varies by reviewer, with most reporting even results and a few describing uneven browning or a bagel setting that underperforms.
- 4 slice capacity with wide slots
- Sure-Toast even browning for single slices
- Dedicated bagel and defrost settings
- Auto Boost lift for smaller breads
Who it's for
Good for households that toast a mix of bagels, English muffins, and standard bread slices and want independent darkness settings per side. Less ideal for anyone who bakes dense or oversized grain loaves and needs guaranteed slot clearance.
Pros and cons
- Separate toastiness dial for each pair of slots
- Auto Boost lifts English muffins and small breads
- Cancel function pops toast up without jamming
- Wide slots fit bagels and many thick slices
- Some dense or thick grain breads do not fit the slots
- Bagel setting underwhelmed at least one buyer
- Large countertop footprint
