Krups ss toaster
This toaster works well. It was a replacement for an older white Krups toaster that I had for about ten years. The removable crumb tray is always a plus, makes it so easy to clean. It toasts well and is a more compact overall size. Don't like the bagel setting. Can't figure out why you want to toast just one side. Does not allow the very large width sizes of bread, thickness is not a problem. I like the exterior finish, the stainless steel has a slightly darker patina than some other models.
It's a good toaster.
I think for under $40 that this is a great toaster. It doesn't fit wider slices of bread, you have to feed them in longways. The best feature is the "stop" button on the front, which ejects bread mid-toast.
Slider difficult to use

toaster went kaput after one month!
The toaster looks nice and worked well...for one month! Now its totally dead and I will have to drive it to a Krups service center to have it repaired. Who has time for that?
A hassle to use
If you want a toaster that requires a two step toasting process, this is the one for you. I find it very annoying when I take a piece of standard size bread out of the freezer and stick it in the toaster I have a 50/50 chance that it will fit. I end up having to toast each end of the bread vertically. This results is a piece of bread toasted evenly on the ends and darker/burnt in the middle. Another problem is that when you press down on the lever on the side that drops the bread and engages the toasting process, you literally have to slam it down. Maybe this is some type of new safety feature, but all my other toasters never seemed to have this issue. I'm going back to the cheaper Oster toaster I originally had. It may not have the greatest ... Read More
