I'm not sure what would ever posess a person to spend more than $25 bucks or so on a toaster. Really what perks do you need. It's the most simple appliance in your home and it does one thing: toast bread. You find one that is reliable and you use it to death. So this is the best one to go with. A good sized four slice toaster, wide enough for bagels or Texas Toast. Four slots and quick toasting mean you can make a mountain of toast fast. Unlike some toasters the heat settings actually mean something. Light means light...dark means...well, you know. Removable tray for dropping the crumbs in the garbage. That's really all the bells and whistles you need. This looks good and cleans up with a wipe of a wet cloth. A real workhorse! This is a great working item that will last you years and it's at a value price. Highly recommended!

Breakfast used to be such a chore. Three people waiting for their toast, which my old two slot toaster either refused to release until burnt, or flung out half done as if from an ejector seat.

Recently, I decided that enough was enough, and brought home this magical machine for a test run.

Now I can impress them by toasting not only slices of bread, but muffins, bagels, waffles and toaster pastries, all without doing myself or others bodily harm. And the great part is, I can do FOUR at a time. No more waiting, and lots more time for me to have my morning cuppa in peace.

It looks great in the kitchen, so even if you don't like toast you should get one anyway as a decoration. Outstanding features are the cool touch sides, the handy eject button to stop toasting at any time, and easy cleaning by way of two slide out crumb trays. No more fumbling with catches at the bottom, or turning the whole thing over and spanking it over the sink. You also have two choices of settings for your toastables, one for the left side pair and one for the right side pair - handy if somebody likes medium and somebody else likes nearly burnt.

This toaster is a wonder gadget, and a time saver when you're feeling toasty.

I did some Internet research for toasters and could not find any with consistently high customer ratings, even the expensive brands. My Black and Decker toaster oven's toast feature has gotten so incredibly slow that I wanted a new toaster. So rather than purchase an expensive toaster, I chose the Proctor Silex Cool Touch model. I am happy to say that this was a wise choice! For 19.99 I got a 4 slice toaster with independent levers so you can toast one or two slices of bread at a time if desired. Also, the pull out crumb tray is an important and nice additional feature which sold me on this model. The slots are wide and bagels can easily fit in. This toaster also toasts the bread evenly and in record time! I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this model to anyone looking for a reasonably priced toaster.
