Perfect Bagel Toaster>> Black & Decker T4569B 4-Slice Toaster, Black
I love bagels and primarily use a toaster for that one purpose (with some toast thrown in from time to time). This 4-Slice Toaster is exactly what I needed as it actually caters to bagels without substituting quality in other applications. Functionally it’s pretty flawless. I can get my bagels toasted evenly and at the correct brownness with little effort. It’s a nice looking modern toaster, and while it might not have every whiz-bang feature that more expensive models offer, it does what it does humbly and with excellence.
The toaster slot size is 5.375 inches long by 1.5 inches wide.
PROS:
1) Cancel button that makes it easy to eject something mid-way through. This is especially handy as you’re getting to know the toaster and how to get your desired level of toasting.
2) A frozen item button for getting your hot-pockets perfectly cooked.
3) Dual trays for bagels or toast with self-adjusting guides for thinner items like sliced bread
4) A bagel button for toasting just the inside of the bagel. There are even markings on the toaster to show you how to insert the bagel.
5) A frozen item button for getting your hot-pockets perfectly cooked.
6) Simple, but pleasing design.
7) Very nice unit for the price.
Cons:
Not as many features as some other models.
Summary:
This is a very nice toaster for the price range. It does a few things really well. It might not have everything you could possibly want in a toaster, but for getting a bagel perfectly cooked it’s great.
