2 Slice Cool Wall Toaster-Black

 (4 customer reviews)

First I am sure the other reviewer had a bad toaster. The one I got works fine. A slight press of the lever starts the toaster. The toast level control works fine as well. What I really like about this toaster is its ability to easily handle bagels with its extra wide slots. Most of the outside of the unit remains cool while toasting. It has a smooth finish and cleans easily with the wipe of a sponge. The bottom has a door that opens to remove accumulated crumbs. Finally, the price is a steal.

I had a wonderful toaster, for years that finally bit the dust. I went to a local store to replace my old faithful 'T-Fal Avante Deluxe' toaster. The store didn't carry T-Fal so being in a hurry I bought this Proctor Silex toaster. I immediately found out I had made a bad choice. I guess you get what you pay for. The toaster does not toast well at all. I had to turn the dial selector to almost the max to get it to toast the bread. It takes a long time to toast and does not toast evenly. I haven't even tried a bagel because it can't even handle bread. The knob you push down to toast does not stay down unless you slam it down, several times; if you don't it pops back up as soon as you let go of it. Don't waste your money, drive to another store if this is the only toaster they offer.

This toaster worked satisfactorily for several days. Then it refused to respond to pressure to pop up the bread before the setting was complete. Finally, with effort it would pop up, very high, and onto the counter. Later it would not toast at all.
