So when we decided to buy a new toaster, our biggest priority was a toaster that was large enough to accommodate large slices of bread and this toaster certainly doesn't disappoint in that regard. The slices of bread we get from the bakery easily fit in this toaster, with room to spare. And if your toasting regular sized bread, you can actually put 2 pieces on each side thus toasting 4 pieces at the same time. Design wise, our Kitchen is largely marble and stainless steel. Both our refrigerator and stove are stainless steel, our Kitchen Aid Blender is the dark grey model, my juicer is stainless steel etc. We even switched over to using the POP containers with the stainless steel lids. So the silver color was just a perfect match for our kitchen design wise. And it does a fantastic job at toasting. It has a small dial right in the middle that allows you to very easily change the toasting time. For the bread we buy at the bakery, the middle setting is absolutely perfect. It has a lift level that allows you to push the toast up far enough to be able to easily grab it without burning yourself on the toaster itself. And one of the most unique aspects of the toaster is the 7 different settings you can use which include Bagel, defrost, reheat, and keep warm. I have never had a toaster in all my years that had a keep warm option. Its great if you get pulled away for some reason while toasting only to come back to find the bread isn't hot enough to melt butter anymore. You just put the toast on the keep warm option and it will warm it back up for you without toasting it any further than it already is. Thats honestly one of my favorite options with this toaster as what I used to have to do if I got pulled away and didn't get back to my toast in time is butter the toast and then stick it in the toaster for a few seconds to melt the butter. Thats not a very smart thing to do as you ultimately get butter that drips down into the bottom of the toaster. Well, with this option I no longer have to worry about that sort of thing.
Be waned tho, this is not a small toaster so if you don't have a lot of counter space and your looking for something smaller that will just toast regular grocery store sized bread, this is definitely not the option you want to go with. Its basically 8 inches high x 8 inches deep by 16 inches long. So its not the height or the depth that is a problem if you have a small amount of space, its the length. 16 inches is basically just under a foot and a half long. On the other hand, if your like my family and you buy bread from bakeries that bake loafs that are much larger than your average store bought bread, this toaster will become your favorite toaster of all time. And another really nice feature is it has a cord wrap at the very bottom of the toaster so you don't have to worry about 3 to 4 feet of cord just lying on your kitchen counter. You can pull out just enough to get it to the socket and keep the rest of the cord hidden underneath the unit. We have now had this toaster for roughly 3 months now and its by far the nicest toaster I have ever owned. At Roughly $80, its definitely a bit more pricey than your average toaster, but then again this is not your average toaster. This is an oversized toaster designed specifically for large slices of bread, even tho you can just as easily use it with smaller pieces of bread.
Bottom line, toasting using our old toaster was just a total pain. You had to rotate the toast half way through the toasting cycle or you would wind up with bread that was unevenly toasted, dramatically so depending on just how long you waited to flip the bread around. I can't tell you how many times I got distracted while toasting and wound up with bread that was literally half toasted and half not toasted. To go from that to this....well, there is just no comparison. I am a big fan of KitchenAid as I think they produce some of the highest quality kitchen appliances on the market. We own a KitchenAid Professional 600 Series Stand Mixer (with most of the pasta attachments), a KitchenAid 5 speed hand blender, a KitchedAid 5 speed hand mixer, a KitchenAid 5 speed pitcher blender, a KitchenAid mini food processor, a KitchenAid coffee grinder, and most of our kitchen gadgets like our ice cream scoop, pizza cutter, can opener, sink brush etc. are all KitchenAid. Even our pasta drying rack is from KitchenAid. I have been using KitchenAid products for well over 20 years and have never been disappointed. This toaster is just the latest edition to our ever growing selection of KicthenAid kitchen products and believe me, if your toasting large bread, this is without question one of the best options on the market. Again, it is a big toaster so you need some space on your counter if your going to go with this model, but if you do have the space it is oh so worth it.
As long as KitchenAid continues producing this model, I would rebuy it in a heartbeat if or when our current model goes down. As I have written in many of my other kitchen related reviews, the quality of the items you use to cook with can play a large role in just how much enjoyment you get out of cooking. Having quality measuring cups, quality knives, quality pots and pans, and quality kitchen appliances....well, it really does make cooking all the more enjoyable and in a day and age where people would rather just go out and get something to eat as opposed to cooking home cooked meals themselves, that become far more important than its ever been.
If your looking for a quality toaster that can toast large pieces of bread, look no further. This is without question the model you should go with. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and like all of KitchenAid's other items, they looks really nice on your countertop. KitchenAid products not only work amazingly well, they also help to make you kitchen look really nice when your not cooking. IMO, you really can't go wrong with KitchenAid and that includes this toaster. I for one couldn't be happier with the purchase.
5 Stars and then some!!!!
My Cuisinart toaster died after 17 faithful years. Ok, half died. only one side of the bread toasts at all. So I bought a Vremi toaster.. it had almost 5 stars and was very well received. Very cute packaging, sort of blocky, and I could have lived with that, but it toasted really, really badly. I got white or ghost beige toast up to a setting of 5 and if I turned it up to 6 or 7 my toast as very dark. I got such crisp English muffins I almost broke a tooth. It's going back.
In the meantime I went looking for a new toaster and although I'd avoided 4 slice toasters before now, I saw that some 4 slice toasters only had 2 slots! Remember, I haven't shopped for toasters in 17 years. I'm a rye bread lover and have never been able to toast a whole slice without having to flip the bread. But a WIDE slot toaster???? Maybe I'll even try out real sourdough bread or a boule, or something of that nature.
So after reading the reviews (and it didn't even have 4 stars), I thought, why not?
This toaster is amazing. Yes, it toasts my rye bread beautifully. The high lift feature is great, but I found something that it doesn't specifically advertise. Not only does it toast bagels, it toasts hamburger buns, so I can have a hamburger with a hot but that isn't toasted on both sides. Truly awesome.
My only regret is that it is so much bigger in terms of counter space than I am used to, that I had to rearrange that corner of the kitchen. I highly, highly recommend this toaster.
I am still on a quest to find a long slot toaster that toasts bread evenly, so far I've tried two different brands, and no joy.
