Love My Toaster - Pleased with Oster,

This review is from: Oster TSSTRT2SST 2-Slice Extra Wide Slot Retractable Cord Toaster, Stainless Steel
This Oster toaster replaced and older model Oster two slice toaster which lasted for a long time. So far after one week have had no problems at all with this toaster. This one does a great job of toasting and the BEST thing is that it has a CANCEL button on its front, allowing you to stop toasting immediately, in case you over adjusted the time. I also like that the controls are where they should be and the cord comes out the back area and is retractable so not to much cord is out on the counter. Simple stylish design but oh, so useful! This mid grade toaster is a winner. I have been very happy with this brand of toaster and last a long time so staying with it. I could have paid less for a toaster but I feel you get what you pay for price wise. I love Oster brand appliances because they last.

Sleek design, First Toast issue,

This review is from: Oster TSSTRT2SST 2-Slice Extra Wide Slot Retractable Cord Toaster, Stainless Steel
I splurged a bit on this toaster because of its sleek design, brushed stainless steel exterior, completely removable easy glide-out crumb tray (no more lugging the whole toaster to the trash and spilling crumbs on the floor anyway!), and the retractable cord. LOVE those retractable cords!! I also liked the frozen food button and bagel capacity. It looks great on the counter. It has soft feet, too, so it doesn't scratch the counter if you move it around. I thought DH would be thrilled with his new toaster after his ancient one died. His reaction wasn't what I had hoped for; he viewed it as something from outer space. Well, it's hard to move some people into the 21st century. I would just give the little toaster time to grow on him. But then the very first slices he toasted came out burned on one side, untoasted on the other.
I really didn't want to return this toaster to Walmart ($29.66)! I should have read the owner's manual before DH used it. You are supposed to run...Read more

This review is from: Oster TSSTRT2SST 2-Slice Extra Wide Slot Retractable Cord Toaster, Stainless Steel
My original review is below, but here are my thoughts on the toaster almost a year later. I hate it more every day!! It now burns one half of one side while not even toasting the rest of the bread. Worst toaster ever, my $10 toaster I had for 10 years worked better than this. But it looks good on my shelf and I still like the cord keeper.
Original Review -
I really wanted this toaster to be awesome, but it has issues. The slice lifter is nice and the slot sizes are good, but the toasting element is bad. It doesn't toast evenly at all! I have to flip my toast midway to get a semi even toasting. But the option for frozen foods is nice, the bagel option is okay.
The BEST thing about this toaster is the cord keeper. But if you want a good toasting toaster, maybe keep looking.
