This review is from: T-Fal Avante Deluxe 2-Slice Toaster, Black (Kitchen) I recently purchased this toaster from Amazon. It has all the basc features I need and does not require any reprogramming after power failures. Instead, there are push buttons for reheat and bagel modes. It toasts quickly and evenly, so to speak. Although each side of the bread gets nicely toasted, one side is significantly darker than the other. For example, I get lightly toasted bread on one side, and the other is medium. That is not a problem for me and my wife, but could be for fussy cooks/eaters. The other thing I want to point out is that this toaster has a large footprint compared to a lot of the others on the market. If you have limited counter space, this could be a Problem. I wish it had a button so I could set it to activate only one slot when I am toasting one slice of bread. It would be an energy saver. 19 of 20 people found the following review helpful: By Martin "Don Martin" (Elmwood Park, IL USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: T-Fal Avante Deluxe 2-Slice Toaster, Black (Kitchen) I purchased my T-Fal toaster about 1 week ago and so far it works wonderfully. I love my sandwiches bread toasted and this device does not burn even the thinnest slices. The "reheat" option is pretty good as well as the removable breadcrumbs' tray. The price I'd say is more than fair for this product and besides it looks really sleek. Highly recommended. 35 of 40 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: T-Fal Avante Deluxe 2-Slice Toaster, Black (Kitchen) I recommend NOT purchasing this toaster for several reasons. First, and most importantly, it did not toast BOTH sides of the bread. A slice of bread that is not square will not fit into the toaster. And last of all, a strange design problem keeps the bread from going completely down into the toaster. It has a wire cage that "grips" the bread and pulls it down. The gripping action doesn't allow the bread to fall completely into the toaster so only the bottow 2/3's of the bread toasted. Also, the unit is large and bulky, it takes up way too much space on the counter for just a 2 slice toaster. The only thing "deluxe" about it, was the price. Way too much money for such a lousy toaster. I sent it back. |
