Amazon.com Review
This single-slot digital toaster from KitchenAid not only toasts most widths of bread to perfection but also warms pastries, gets bagels just right, and handles frozen items intelligently. A simple user-friendly display governs all these functions, with a dial for browning preference and three buttons for the "warm," "frozen," and "bagel" options. The "warm" function heats without toasting, while the "frozen" function gently thaws, then toasts. The "bagel" function toasts the cut side 100 percent and the crust 50 percent. Each function includes an indicator light, and the digital display shows the selected browning level. If you toast several servings in a row, KitchenAid's Even Heat system adjusts cooking time to ensure consistent results. Structurally, the toaster is sound and accommodating, holding two slices at a time. The toasting rack automatically centers bread between the elements, and the Soft Rise feature raises finished toast high for easy removal. The toaster also features heavy-duty heating elements, a full-width dishwasher-safe crumb tray, a stainless-steel interior, and stain-resistant polycarbonate housing. The power cord has an especially tidy feature--it wraps out of sight underneath the toaster for storage or shortening. The unit measures 5-1/4 by 14-1/2 by 8 inches and wipes clean easily with a damp cloth. --Emily Bedard

Summary: Works great for me! 2008-08-18
Comment: Before purchasing this toaster, I read many reviews on it. Some good, some bad. I purchased the toaster a few months ago despite any bad reviews, and it has been working great!! No problems at all. Bread is toasted evenly and bagels come out great. I would recommend this product. It looks nice and fits well on the counter. No problems here!

Summary: If it's toast you want, don't buy this one 2008-08-11
Comment: Like others, I fell for the KitchenAid name, figuring it had to be a good toaster based on the manufacturer's reputation. Boy, was I wrong, and boy, am I mad, after all the money I paid for this frustrating appliance. First, the good points: it holds 4 slices of most bread, and the long slots can accommodate slices of homemade loaves that are wider than normal. That's about it. As far as actually toasting bread, forget it--this "toaster" can't do it. The bread comes out half-browned, or rather half underdone and half burnt. We use the highest setting and still have to put English muffins down twice to get any toast color. In short, I own a bread heating machine, but I'm still searching for a real toaster that consistently produces uniformly browned slices of bread, bagels, and English muffins. If we can put a man on the moon, why am I still searching for the Holy Grail (a toaster that toasts)?

Summary: Kitchen Aid once meant great; now it means "watch out". 2008-08-06
Comment: When the old toaster quit my brother came up this one. "How much", I said. "$80+", he said. Me: "What happened to twenty dollar Proctor Silex toasters"? Him: "Never heard of a twenty dollar toaster".
Days pass, I think of toast, drop in two slices of Home Pride wheat bread. Seeing the control dial goes from 1 to 9, I set it about 3. Burnt toast. Starting over, I find that 2 works, but only if you turn the dial counterclockwise to 1 and then up to 2. But while 3 makes burnt toast, 2 makes extra light toast. Oddly, sometimes you can turn the thing a lot either way and the light stays on 2 (or whatever), while other times you barely touch it and it bumps up one or more settings. Unless you do it exactly the same way, you're gonna get something different than you think. So, the dial makes no sense, and the toaster doesn't make very good toast.
Now, the most important kind of toast, English Muffins.
Long ago you could get a perfect English Muffin at Ligget's Drugstore north of Times Square, near the Roxy theater. This was before all the "nooks and crannies" blather on the package - they just sliced them in half with a big knife and put them on a conveyor type commercial toaster, along with everyone else's toast. A few minutes later, your English Muffin appeared, perfectly done in the middle, perfectly brown on top, with a couple of small but tasty burnt edges here and there.
It's probably impossible to get the same results at home, but you live in hope... so I could sort of overlook the plain toast problem with this Kitchen Aid toaster if it made great or even good English Muffins. But it doesn't.
First, you must use 9, the highest setting, but that produces English Muffins with no color, that don't look toasted at all and taste like school paste. So to cook one you must use 9 and when that's done, push the handle down again and toast some more; but this is a complete guess - 30 seconds, a minute...? Once its done, you can't grab the muffin slices and there's no extra lift on the handle, so you use a fork, same as you did with the old twenty dollar Proctor Silex.
Waay too much money for waay too much trouble for not so good results.
Here at Amazon, I see the Proctor Silex is still around, now selling for $12.99

Summary: Nice, but doesn't toast evenly 2008-06-05
Comment: This could be a fluke toaster, but it doesn't toast evenly from one end to the other. I have had Kitchen Aid toasters before and loved them. But this one needs some help.

Summary: Stylish design, Even toasting 2008-06-05
Comment: I've had this KitchenAid 4-slice, 2-slot toaster for about six weeks. I prefer this style because bread slices are occasionally too wide for regular-slotted toasters.
I use it about 5 times a week. It does the job. The toast is very evenly browned, not striped. The knob, however, has no physical start and stop points - an odd feature. The knob controls a bright red LED readout of numbers. It'll take a few experiments to find your number. I'm a "7" man, myself. It lacks a "cancel" button to pop the toast up early, so you need to use the slide for that - a trivial design flaw.
