I have been using the Black and Decker 2 slice toaster every single day. I first have to say that the black stainless steel color is beautiful and matches with my other small appliances in the kitchen. I use it everyday for my toasted bread and bagels that I eat for breakfast. It has 7 shade settings that you can use and the bread comes out evenly toasted on both sides. It comes with a crumb tray that collects the crumbs and after you are done using the toaster you can easily take it out and throw the crumbs out. What I also really like is that the slots are extra wide so you do not have to worry if the bread will stay stuck in the slot because it is too big. I truly enjoy this toaster and recommend it to anyone who needs a toaster that looks good in the kitchen while it does its job right.
