Toasts evenly, looks nice on my counter. Lightweight and good quality, good value for the price

I have had this toaster a little over a month. So far, so good. It is a nice looking toaster and appears to be well built. I did not want to take a chance with a non-brand name. Not sure if it makes a difference these days but I felt more comfortable with a company with a known positive reputation. All the functions work as advertised. Bagel function works well. The function that allows you to push toasted items up above the normal set position is very helpful In the past, I would have to use a knife to wedge up items that sat low in the toaster. The opening width of the toaster is good. I have no problems getting a bagel in the slot without getting it to close to the heating elements. I think the criticisms in the other reviews have some merit but I have never had a toaster that doesn't. It does take some time to complete the toast cycle but every toaster I have owned is similar. I have had a toaster that browns more quickly but on some items it would toast the outside but not warm up the center. I think the cycle time is fine. The other issue is that it does not brown evenly. No toaster I have had toasts perfectly. I have always set time to a shorter interval and then turned the toast to complete the cycle. Overall, this is a good basic toaster. I spent a lot of time looking at reviews and I am satisfied I picked the right toaster given the price range. The unknown at this point is the longevity. I will update accordingly.

Of toasting the living bawangajaners out of bread products. Toast? Simple. Bagels? Totally yummy. Frozen waffles? Bet you can't eat just one. This model Hamilton Beach toaster is the best. Looks great also!

Good price but doesn’t toast evenly. It “thinks” every piece of toast is a bagel. For the price, I’m keeping it. I’m retired & have time to flip it over. Couldn’t give it a 4 1/2 stars.

We have been living with a Duolit English expensive toaster for 35 years. The past five my wife has been ready for a new toaster. Finally I saw this one in Consumers Report and said what the heck, $25 and superior review. Well, it is superior, works fantastic simple controls that all work. I seriously recommend this item. Well engineered for even toasting, boost on inside elements for bagels or muffins, it is just great. And the price is deceivingly cheap. Buy it if you need a toaster.

Toasts well: however is somewhat lightweight and also smudges easily with fingerprints

Toaster works and toasts as expected. The sides do get hot when toasting so be careful. The overall design is easy to use and big enough to see. Some of the New toasters have numbers and dials so small. This Hamilton Beach did well with design.

RECOMENDADO

It tilt to the front when I push the lever. If the bread isn't just right, I can't put it back down again right away, I need to wait 15 seconds or so. Very not practical when making breakfast for 2-3 people. Bagel button doesn't seem to do anything. the 2 pros: it looks nice in my opinion, and the frozen button works like a charm.

Good

no he tenido muchas tostadoras, pero seguramente volvería a comprar esta

This is a 4.5 star review - it would have been 5 stars except for one issue. The good: Firstly, this toaster has a proper bagel setting unlike many other toasters. The bagel setting on this toaster just does one side - so ideal for bagels, buns, english muffins and the like. I prefer these items to have a toasted inside and warmed but untoasted outside - exactly what this toaster does. The bagel setting on many other toasters, including a different one I recently purchased (and then replaced with this one), simply adds extra time when on the bagel setting, with all burners lit up. That's not what I want. The toaster works well, it is nicely sized (not too big), has reasonably wide slots, an extra lift to get items out of the toaster and is easy to clean. The Bad: As other reviewers have pointed out, a design flaw is that the toaster reverts to its 4 setting every time. So if you like a 5 darkness to your toast, you have to manually change to to 5 each time - it will not remember that setting. I personally don't find it an issue since the 4 setting is normally fine, or I just pop it back down for a bit of extra toasting - but for some this could be really annoying. Hopefully this problem will be fixed by the manufacturer in future models of this toaster.
