This toaster does just what you want it to - it toasts bread properly. We considered a much more expensive toaster when we bought this, but we're glad we bought this one. We've had it a year or two and have had no problems.

This review is from: Black & Decker OptiToast Electronic 4-Slice Toaster

I bought this 4-slice toaster in a brick-and-mortar store and just after three months, the right toaster unit is stuck on 'bagel'. Which means it only toasts *one* side of my toast. It's not the switch that is stuck or anything, which could be fixed easily, its like the wires just died on the other side. I thought that was a horrible way to toast bagels anyway (though I think thats how its done with most toasters). It makes it not very crisp, and as you can imagine, makes disgusting regular toast that falls apart when you attempt to butter it. Also, it doesn't toast as much as completely dry out the piece of bread making it like a cracker. The booster feature thats supposed to raise your toast out of the slots enough to grab is is a joke. I have to dig around with a knife to get the toast out anyway.

What is up with this? My $10 sunbeam (single) toaster that died after six months made better toast.

I'm not very impressed with the Black & Decker 4-slice toaster.

The lever on one side has to be pushed down three or four times before it will stay down. The other side works OK.

The toaster is quite slow.

The "push up" feature raises the toast less than an inch, so I still have to "fish" for some slices of bread.
