"I like that I can toast larger sized slices, as I do make my own bread often. Great for thicker items like bagels.

Toasts just okay. Mine is darker on top and lighter on the bottom, so I usually have to flip it then hit 'a bit more' button to get it nice and even. If I make two batches of toast one after the other, the second batch gets burnt totally black!

The very first time wiping the toaster clean with just a damp cloth, most of the words that denote each button's purpose wiped away!!! I still don't get how an expensive item like this should have problem like that! Did no one in quality control department test this???"

"Yes, the features are great, but it got the basic toasting function wrong. The top two heating threads do not heat like the lower threads, producing lighter-on-top, darker-on-the-bottom toast. I tried two units and they both had the same issue, so I believe it is just a basic design flaw. Save your money!"

"I love this toaster. It's beautiful and thoughtfully designed. I love being able to check the doneness of my toast, and how easy it is to adjust the toast setting.

It seems a simple thing, but having appliances that are good looking and simple to use yet full of features really makes a difference. "

"This is my first Breville product. This toaster does it all! My kids asked "When's it going to butter the bread?" since it seems to do everything else! There was a great deal of thought put into this toaster. Every plus from every other toaster has been put into this product!

Thank you Breville, and yes I'll ask.....when are you coming out with one that butters the bread? (obviously joking here) since it seems to do everything else so flawlessly.

Never again do I want to be without a Breville!"

"Just got it and love it- I also wish it had a white cord to match. Great features- not as big as people claim on other sites but it is very light.
Does a great job!"

"My wife loves the toaster. We have been through many and she said this was the best tasting bagel she has ever had.

"

"Oh my am I enjoying my new Lift and Look toaster. It is one wonderful toaster and I know, I have been through many toasters. This one looks great, functions great and makes really good toast. Super artisan toast and terrific bagels. Who could ask for more? I kind of wish it had a white cord but that is no problem for me.
Thank you Breville"
