I like the looks of the Hamilton Beach 2 Slot Toaster. It's very stylish in the black and stainless steel. I like the bagel and defrost buttons right up front, easy to locate and use; along with the shade selector. The extra wide slots allow you to toast of wide variety of things, bread, bagels, Texas toast, English muffins, waffles etc. The toaster is cool to the touch which is nice in case you happen to leave a bread bag too close, it won't melt. The crumb tray is also easy to remove.
