Rival 2-Slice Toaster - White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After 25+ years my cheap old Black & Decker toaster died, so I was looking for another simple basic toaster that cost little, at least until I could look at all the reviews and choose the right toaster for my needs, I decided to take a chance on this cheap Rival, I've been using it every day for about 6 months... it works OK, does the job I need for standard bread and English muffins, I've not tried bagels but this does NOT have a bagel setting so I'm guessing it will not be good for those... this is called "cool touch" and it is, but if you're careless you can still burn yourself, but there is a toast "lifter" that should make toast easier to remove.

It has wide slots that adjust for thick English muffins to normal sandwich bread, and has a simple "toast shade" control, but you have to learn to set this properly for normal bread versus English muffins (muffins are set about twice the setting used for sandwich bread)... there is a "cancel" button that has always worked for me when I forgot and left the toast shade control too dark, the manual warns to use this "cancel" button instead of just lifting the "toast lever" since lifting it may damage the device... bread is "almost" evenly toasted, though one end of English muffins are always toasted a bit darker than the other end, but it's acceptable for my needs... has removable crumb tray that's easy to clean.

This is a simple basic toaster that costs little, so if your needs are simple this might work for you, however there is one problem for me, most of the bread I buy is just over 5 inches long, and I've always been able to toast it with no problems using my old toaster, but the "bread slot" on this toaster is just LESS than 5 inches, which means my bread will not fit unless I cut off about .25 inch, this is mostly a nuisance but I'm looking for another toaster that will accept my regular bread length... for the low price this toaster does an OK job for many people, though there are definite things lacking if you need more features.

Rival TT9468G 4-Slice Toast-Excel Toaster Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this toaster and found out that regular slices of bread do not fit in the slots. I have to cut off 1/2" off the side of the bread for it to fit. I am talking about breads like orowheat and pepperidge farm. Bad bad toaster..

T-Fal 4-Slice Digital Toaster, black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Just arrived - I'm only posting because there's so little info on this toaster. As of today Amazon still has no image so I uploaded one direct from t-Fal's website. That's my good deed for the day.
This toaster has two long slots. It can easily fit 4 slices of bread and it may fit better in your kitchen than one of the huge 4-separate-slot toasters. Toasts nice and evenly so far (only had it a day so I'll update later). Seems average in toasting speed (why is everyone so obsessed with this?)
It's got a digital countdown timer which is very nice (when's my toast gonna be ready???!!!) Only a few simple controls and functions which is all you need. This could be my favorite toaster ever if it keeps doing it's basic job well.
Still working after 6 months. It doesn't toast quite as evenly as I thought before but it's ok. LOVE the bagel function. To the commenter: yes it beeps when it's done -- but it's not too loud.
***If you haven't used a product for at least a week, DON'T REVIEW IT!***

T-Fal Avante Deluxe 2-Slice Toaster, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recommend NOT purchasing this toaster for several reasons. First, and most importantly, it did not toast BOTH sides of the bread. A slice of bread that is not square will not fit into the toaster. And last of all, a strange design problem keeps the bread from going completely down into the toaster. It has a wire cage that "grips" the bread and pulls it down. The gripping action doesn't allow the bread to fall completely into the toaster so only the bottow 2/3's of the bread toasted. Also, the unit is large and bulky, it takes up way too much space on the counter for just a 2 slice toaster. The only thing "deluxe" about it, was the price. Way too much money for such a lousy toaster. I sent it back.

Attractively designed with a brushed stainless-steel front, this 1200-watt two-slice toaster features an angled design for effortless viewing of the toasting process and safe removal of toast. The unit's high-speed heating mechanism toasts bread 40-percent faster than conventional toasters, and its extra-wide slots accommodate bagels, English muffins, even thick slices of homemade bread. The unit also provides self-adjusting guides to ensure even toasting, seven customized toasting levels for browning to perfection, and a high-lift lever, which makes it easier to remove smaller toasted items. In addition, its bagel-toasting technology toasts the inside and gently warms the outside--the way a bagel should be toasted. Other highlights include a one-touch reheat function for warming previously toasted breads, a cancel button that stops the toasting process at any time, a cool-touch exterior, and a removable crumb tray for easy cleaning. The toaster measures 9 by 13 by 12 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

T-Fal Avante Deluxe 4-Slice Toaster, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ok, it makes really fine toast. And it's quick.
Its also nice looking ... esp. if you have stainless appliances or some stainless handles in your kitchen already. The slanted design really makes this toaster an original. The slanted design seems to make putting toast in and taking it out easier, esp. for kids. Even the buttons are stylish ... and I like how the outer toasting levers align with the inner levers. There are controls on either side and both sides can easily handle a bagel with ease.
There is a good feature to note. The middle push levers ... one for each side. These inner levers are stylish, but have a meaningful purpose, which is to push the toast UP and OUT of the toaster (if needed, if you want to, you don't need to) ... I've never seen a toaster that could do that before! That really is a nice safety / convienience feature ... esp. with smaller bread ... it pushes it up for enough that you don't reach into the toaster at all to retrieve the toast.
It's a big boy ... fairly wide for a toaster ... but worth it because of the quality and speed of the toasting ... and style/originality of the unit.
If I were to try and be more critical, I would say the size could be an issue for those with small kitchens or limited countertop space ... and the slanted design of the unit can on rare occasion launch some lighter toast out of the unit.
But overall, I must give this 5 stars because it does toast and bagels extremely well (no burns yet) and its stylish and original. I would warn that it toasts on a very low setting, so start out with 2 or 3 ... because its fast and powerful ... a higher setting could burn, I would think.
