Title: I should have purchased the Breville 2-slice.
Product review: What's right with it: Its pretty. The lift-up lever to check out your toast is handy. The eject button is handy.What's wrong with it: It's too big (takes up 90 sq.in.). The big black three-prong plug is obtrusive. The big, impressive, digital read-out is illegible up close. It toasts unevenly and unpredictably. Why would one end of a slice of white bread be burned and the other end undone? It's hard to remove a piece of bread that falls below. The "Reheat, Bagel, Defrost" functions are virtually useless. When all is said and done, bells, whistles and design aside, you buy a toaster to toast. This toaster stands in its own way of getting the simple job done of toasting. Maybe I'm asking too much?
