This toaster has been the best toaster I have ever used. It toasts your bread evenly on both sides. You don't have to worry about burning one side without toasting the other. My most favorite feature about this toaster is the quick stop button. If you can't wait any longer for your toast, you push that stop button, and pop! You've got your toast. Plus, cleanup is a breeze and the brushed stainless is so easy to keep fingerprint free.
