Toaster is great for a variety of things besides toast. I tried the defrost on english muffins and it defrosted but, did not toast. You have to push the toast button.  The toaster toasts better on the outside of the burner. So if you have something that you want cooked a little less you put that side facing in toward the middle of toaster. Overall it is great toaster. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
