The Hamilton Beach 2 Slice Toaster is the new all-star in my kitchen!  With its extra wide slots for thicker breads and bagels, it easily accomodates my morning (or afternoon) bagel. I love that it is so user friendly and super safe!  It even has an automatic shutoff, even if the toast gets jammed.  No more burnt bagels.  I also love the cancel button, which stops the toasting cycle. This gem replaces my previous toaster and it is super stylish!
