What Others Say
Nice big toaster
This toaster is a very nice one. Like all toasters it takes some time getting used to the settings. The only thing that I dislike about this toaster is the size, it is bigger than my previous one.
Toasts Evenly
I was wondering if the extra cost was worth it for a toaster. It is possible to buy them cheaper in other places, but the even toasting, the wide slots for bagels (also works well with English muffins), and the sleek stainless steel exterior make it a great value. Just a word of note is the sides of the toaster stay cool while toasting. It was well worth the few extra dollars.

Solid well built machine.
Only cons I can think of are: fingerprints and the toasting compartment could be a little deeper since the tops of what is being toasted are right at the upper limit of the machine. McDonald's pancakes stick up and stay cool. This may be an issue with most other units as well?
Works like it should
I am real happy with this toaster. I toasts nicely. The "warm" cycle does what it says, heats the bread back up with only a slight additional toasting. I love the "bagel" setting. One side toasted, the other side heated, with just a light toast. The negative, it does take longer to toast bread, but the resulting product is worth waiting for. I would definitely buy this toaster again and would recommend it to anyone.
Very pleased after looking at dozens
Our household of five is very pleased with this toaster. I read reviews on dozens of models and went to the local big box store to try out various brands in person. The KitchenAid feels very solid and makes toast quickly and evenly every time.
