I just moved to a new flat and as most of you know, we start looking for all the basic essentials of daily living. I found this particular toaster on amazon (my goto site for basic shopping) and the color matched the color scheme of my new place, so I decided to give it a try. The item came well packaged and after a few weeks of use I am comfortable to say that it is a good choice. The toaster is light weight but has wide slots to easily accomodate things from small slices of bread to small bagles with ease. It has a bunch of setting and I have not had a single toast over-toasted or burnt yet. Even my kids can use it with ease.
