Black & Decker TR1200SB 2-Slice Stainless Steel Toaster with Retractable Cord, Stainless Steel

Don't buy this toaster.... bread toasted black on one side and brown on the other. The well is not long enough for some bread and at lower settings leaves the top of the bread untoasted. On the other hand if you toast english muffins you cannot retrieve them without burning your fingers.. the well is then too long! Terrible toaster... don't spend your money on this item!!

The toaster looks great but after 40 days, the handle does not stay down. Even though the toaster still functions, toaster does not function unless the handle is held down. Would not recommend to my friends...

I bought this toaster elsewhere less than 3 months ago, but I hate it soooo much that I decided to do consumers a favor by posting a review here. The lever only worked correctly periodically from day one. Now? Not at all. Junk, plain and simple. The only upside is that it's inexpensive, which is one reason I determined not to buy an expensive brand. Customer reviews of those showed dismal performance as well. Unless a commercial toaster is purchased---and they are extremely expensive-- virtually all brands are made in China. Enough said.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PRODUCT! Pathetic.
