BLACK+DECKER 2-Slice Toaster, Extra Wide Slots, 6 Shades

Me gusta que es amplio no hay problema para cualquier tipo de tamaño de rebanada y deja un buen tostado

The first time I used this toaster, it smelled like burnt plastic. I didn’t see anything burning but was really concerned it would do that any time I used it, hence contaminating my air and, possibly, the toast. However, it stopped doing that after one or two uses. However, I am not happy with its performance as a toaster. First, I have to re-toast the bread 2x, sometimes 3, before it is adequately toasted. This is starting with frozen bread, as I always freeze my bread. Still, when you put it all the way up, you’d think it would toast the bread a little bit in all that time. However, it doesn’t, so it takes quite a while on repeat. It also has a very short cord, making it difficult to move out from under the cabinets. Since a LOT of heat comes out the top, I am concerned about all that heat hitting the underside of the cabinets and warping or drying them out or whatever. I don’t think it is a fire hazard but I would be much happier if the cord were long enough to pull the toaster all the way out. My final complaint is that, although it has nice wide slots for big bread, it is not really quite deep enough for big pieces so, if you are trying to toast something other than a small, square loaf, some will stick out the top and not get toasted. Overall, I am not very satisfied with this toaster. Luckily, I only bought it to tide me over until I found a sale on a good toaster over, which I have now acquired, so I don’t have to use this dumb thing anymore.
Summary: If you want a toaster on the cheap, this is good enough. Just be aware you may be waiting a while for your toast!

Easy toclean

Bought this for my mom in March, I should have known it was to cheap.
Bought in March, stopped working in June, 4 months of use before it stopped working. Unacceptable, its my own fault for buying cheaply made garbage.

I’ve had the toaster for over a month now, and use it at least 5 times a week. Making king-size english muffins, lightly toasting a hard roll for my hamburger or making well-done multigrain toast for an open turkey sandwich…this toaster is just terrific.

I just put in the bread, turn the dial to the toast level I have already established as ‘perfect’ for that item, push down the front lever and that’s it. It comes out evenly toasted every time, and in the event I want to pop the bread a bit earlier, I just tap the ‘CANCEL’ button in front. Old-fashioned, low-tech…its a toaster!

The plastic shell is very strong and light…and, keeps me from getting burned. When done, I turn it upside down over the trash can, then get any leftover crumbs via the crumb tray underneath.

The 1930’s design is very Art Deco, and adds a bit of pizzazz to the kitchen appliance shelf. Not sure how much more you can ask for from something that looks this good, works so well and is so reasonably priced.

This is my three month review. I’ve used much more expensive toasters for most of the last 20 years and other than having 4 slots as compared to 2 this very affordable toaster does so much better at producing consistent results. Both toast and bagels come out perfectly for my tastes at setting 3 and my other half gets perfect results at 4. When cooking subsequent batches the results are still consistent and the toaster doesn’t get too hot on the outside to handle. Cleaning is easy with an easy to access tray on the bottom.

You can’t go wrong with this toaster.
