Breville Smart Toaster Die-Cast : This smart toaster features an internal electronic chip that automatically lowers bread with a single touch and regulates toasting time. The brushed die-cast metal toaster is designed with dual control panels so each side operates independently of the other. Push-button controls include toast, a bit more, bagel, defrost, and lift-and-look functions. Press the "a bit more" button and bread automatically lowers for additional toasting time. The smart lift-and-look function automatically raises the bread carriage during toasting to allow viewing and/or canceling mid-cycle. Blue LED panels illuminate, acting as a progress indicator by counting down the time remaining in the toasting cycle. A beep indicates when toast is done. Choose 4-slice or 2-slice smart toaster. Product Features Intelligent one-touch auto-lowering function Push-button controls for toast, a bit more, bagel, defrost, and lift-and-look functions LED panel illuminates remaining time according to selected setting on variable browning control Brushed die-cast metal housing with cord wrap 1-year limited warranty
When I'm in the Kitchen, I become: Self-proclaimed Gourmet
I've only had the toaster a week but I really love it so far. It toasts in a reasonable amount of time, it beeps when it's done so you don't forget about your toast! I like the "A bit more" button if it's not quite toasted enough. My mother-in-law has the 2-slice version of this and has loved it for years and I'm becoming a big fan of Breville (we have a breville juicer and it's great!)
