This is a basic 2 slice toaster but works well for me when toasting my bread and also when cooking my frozen pastries. This has a frozen button which is nice thatI do not need to put the frozen foods through two rounds like some other toasters. So far all foods I have made in here have come out the darkness I would like and were ready to eat after the first "pop". This is also on the smaller side, so great if you do not have a lot of counter space.
