bella Stainless Steel 2 Slice Toaster with Extra Wide Slots & Removable Crumb Tray - 6 Browning Options, Auto Shut Off & Reheat Function - Toast Bread, Bagel & Waffle

I've had no issues with this nifty little appliance. It looks nice sitting out on the counter; I have had zero issues with it in terms of ability to toast perfectly, just needed to know the right setting for each food item, ie. bread, English muffin, bagel, trial and error, easy. Everything fits perfectly in the slots. I have an extremely small kitchen but with many outlets, so it was easy to find a permanent home for it to comfortably keep it plugged in at all times, only needing a small amount of cord to reach any given outlet should I decide to rearrange. Overall, very pleased with price, ease of use and continued performance.

I've picked up the Bella 4-Slice Toaster for almost two years now and overall I’ve been very pleased with its performance and design. This toaster strikes a nice balance of functionality, safety, and style — especially for busy mornings or households that toast often. The four extra-wide slots handle different kinds of bread, bagels, and even thicker slices like sourdough comfortably, which makes breakfast prep easy. Bella Kitchenware With six browning settings and dedicated buttons for bagel, defrost, reheat, and cancel, I can customize how my toast comes out with good consistency. The auto shut-off and anti-jam safety features give peace of mind — it’s reassuring knowing it won’t keep heating if something goes wrong or if I get distracted. Cleanup is simple thanks to the removable crumb tray, which catches crumbs and makes maintenance quick. I Like the Smooth, modern look that fits well on my counter — nice without being flashy. Easy controls and intuitive buttons make it a good choice even if you’re not tech-savvy. Toasting results are consistent once you dial in the preferred setting. This toaster offers excellent value for the price — robust features, a thoughtful safety design, and easy everyday performance. If you want a dependable 4-slice toaster that’s versatile and simple to use, this Bella model is a solid pick.

This item looks good, Works good. Toasting Accuracy is a little lacking but reasonable. Setting of 5 makes good toast. Tiny foot print for good space saving. Can’t say about ease of cleaning but it does have a crumb tray. I will say that the toast slots should be a bit longer. They are plenty wide but they do need to be longer because some bread doesn’t fit so easily like ours. Our loaves of bread are a bit wide. An extra inch in the slot length would be great. If you use only the typical Wonder types of breads then this is fine for fit. The finish of the toaster is perfect. Brushed Stainless Steel. When you get your toaster I recommend taking it outside and plugging it in and running it a minimum of 3 time on high to burn off the coatings from being new. It really stunk up the house doing that in the house. Do not put bread in it straight from the box. It is a MUST to do at least 3 burn off runs before you use it. Preferably done outside.

Large bread slices don't drop deep into slot, but otherwise it toasts smaller slices good. It's a hot toaster so backdown the dial to a lesser number.

1) Failed to inform of Prop 65 Warning in the item description 2) Failed to inform of Prop 65 Warning at the check-out The box had a BPA-free stamp on the front. I unboxed the product and was going to plug it into the outlet, when I managed to push the box off the counter and that's when I saw Prop 65 warning on the bottom. I am not upset with the manufacturer of this toaster - they did Prop 65 Warning (although candidly). BUT... I am VERY UPSET with Amazon.com, as they failed to disclose this fact in the two places they were supposed to! If I knew of this Prop 65 Warning before hand, it could've reduced carbon imprint of sending this product back and forth! For those who are unfamiliar: California's Proposition 65, also known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, requires businesses to provide warnings to Californians about SIGNIFICANT EXPOSURES TO CHEMICALS that may cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. The law applies to businesses with 10 or more employees that operate or sell products in California, INCLUDING ON-LINE SALES. Key aspects of Proposition 65: Purpose: To inform Californians about potential exposures to listed chemicals and ALLOW them to MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS. Chemicals: The list includes over 1,000 naturally occurring and SYNTHETIC chemicals, including those found in pesticides, household products, food, drugs, and solvents. Warnings: Businesses must provide warnings BEFORE exposing individuals to listed chemicals, unless exposures are below established safe harbor levels or pose no significant risk.

This toaster does not fully toast off-the-shelf sliced bread (see photo). The slices barely fit completely in the slots (It's not tall enough.). There's nearly a full inch at the top of the slices that doesn't toast; It's the same for both slots. Although the intensity setting and range actually does a wonderful job in the area that actually affects the slices (at least on one side), the toaster is poorly designed in that the heating elements cannot affect the entire surface of even store bought sliced loafs of bread. There is no way, it would completely cover the surface of some of the homemade or local bakery made sliced bread or most bagels that I have seen. It should also be noted that the outside heating elements run hotter than the inside heating elements. The toast comes out darker on one side than the other; You can make toast that is nearly burnt on one side and only lightly tanned on the other. Perhaps this is a useful feature for someone, not me. I paid $18 and some change for this toaster. It's not worth my time to return it, but I wanted to be sure my fellow Prime Members were aware of this substandard product.

Easy to use and perfect

Even on lowest setting toast went up in flames. Makes a strange crackling noise. Definitely not safe.

Me ha funcionado muy bien

It's a toaster - works well, good value for the money!

This toaster is nice looking and works very well. Great price
