Its big, fast, stylish and makes great toast. March 7, 2007 S. Bunker 72 out of 72 found this review helpful
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.
Simply the best toaster I've ever used March 30, 2007 Switchwitch (NJ USA) 44 out of 47 found this review helpful
I've had lots of toasters over the years. This one, quite simply, is the best I've ever used. Bagels, English muffins, bread, PopTarts, whatever. It does a beautiful job toasting, getting the hot items out of the toaster is easy and SAFE, and the angle at which the toast comes out of the machine is very convenient. A great machine at a great price. You won't be disappointed.
What a toaster! May 23, 2007 R. G. May (Scholar at large) 38 out of 40 found this review helpful
I am not the type to gush about household appliances, especially a toaster. After all, the mandate in toaster production is quite simple, manufacture a machine that makes toast. Well, this initial naivete has been long since dispelled after the purchase of over a dozen toasters, none of which did the thing they are supposed to do - make toast.
All of that changed with the purchase of this toaster. What a well engineered piece of equipment that does perfectly what it is supposed to do - make toast. Don't look any further, if you're looking for a machine that does its job well, this is it.
Avante Deluxe 4 Slice Toaster January 3, 2007 Cheryl A. Bulger (Chicago, IL USA) 23 out of 23 found this review helpful
This is the nicest toaster that I have purchased to date. I like the style & features. Just a note - it is quite big. You will need ample counter space for this beauty. I keep mine in the corner of my counter & it is working very well for us.
