I love this toaster! It so easy to use and toast pretty fast. The silver looks great on my countertop. The slots are wide and can fit thick breads and bagels. One of my favorite features is the toaster pops high enough so you don't have to stick your fingers inside it to retrieve your bread and even though it pops high enough it still has the extended lift lever. It has a bagel feature and a frozen feature that are very useful. It also has a cancel button which I love because I use to have to disconnect my last toaster if I wanted to retrieve my bread! Lol! Overall, great toaster with a nice even toast on the bread!
