Hamilton Beach 2-Slice Bread and Bagel Toaster with Extra-Wide Slots, Toast Boost, and Removable Crumb Tray, Stainless Steel

The longer slot accepted standard bread. If the slots are 5 1/4 or longer like this toaster, okay. I had to return a toaster that was too short for a slice of bread!

Made cheaper than old days, but better than the other off-brands... Toast is crisp .... Browning settings 7, adjustable... Like the crumb tray, non stick, easy to pull out, dump, slide back in ... Takes seconds.

I have for decades been a satisfied customer of HB's kitchen appliances and remain loyal to the brand name because, unlike other brands at any price, their designs, occasional upgrades most to improve quality, not add more trendy gimmicks as other do. Each of the various appliances I have bought endure for years, remain easy to use and easy to clean. I also recommend their countertop "broiler oven", especially the largest size Hamilton Brand sells of which other brands do not have extra large capacity. Why is this important? First with a broiler over, not a toaster oven, and in a three rack size appliance, large roasts, small turkeys, from scratch or frozen pies, entire cakes and trays of cookies and more can be accomplished without using those big stove ovens. I also have an HB juicer which is so easy to clean, lightweight yet sturdy material. I am a fan, simple as that.

This toaster has the ability to stop cooking by pushing the cancel button. You won't get toast that may be too dark. Has a wide slot for may toasting choices, sometimes, I put in 2 slices on either sides, I get a sandwich bread. We like this toaster! Thanks, B. Graham

I bought the stainless steel toaster. Over-all this toaster looks great and works well. The only issue I’ve found is that I have to put the color dial all the way to the highest position in order to lightly toast the bread. Other than that, I’ve no further complaints.

It does heat and toast quickly but both sides of bread do not toast even. One side gets dark while the other side barely toast. It was an inexpensive toaster . The controls are well placed and easy to use.

I bought this because it was the same model I previously had that worked great for ten years. This one has worked for only two months. The optional bagel toaster has stopped working. When using it for bread it takes forever and has places that don't toast. Very disappointed.

Don’t waste your money on this toaster. It is so light weight that when you push the lever down, it tries to flip forward if you don’t hold it. It also doesn’t toast evenly. There will be dark brown places instead of even toasting

I had to turn the nob to setting %236 and then push it down again in order to get any toasting effect.

I plugged it into the wall outlet as soon as it came out of the box, put 2 slices of bread into the bread lifter, and attempted to lower the bread lifter but it didn't lock into place and heat up.
