Oster® Retro 2-Slice Toaster with Quick-Check Lever, Extra-Wide Slots, Impressions Collection, Red

All I want in life is some well toasted bagels. This toaster delivers. Perfectly even, nice amount of toast just shy of burnt at a smidge past halfway on the dial. Cutting the dial back to 1 just barely crisps the bread, so you have quite a bit of play to hit your preference. The bagel function keeps the outside from being toasted, and remember the cut part of the bagel is “directional” on toasters with bagel function. So whichever you buy, check the instructions on which way bagels go in.It toasts bread well, too, but, I haven’t tried thicker slices or pastries from frozen. I presume it will function just as well on those.The toaster is reasonably attractive, the crumb tray is decently edged to prevent spills, and the new toaster funky smell went away as per the directions (run it empty for a few minutes) Plastic shell stays cool to the touch as well. I know it seems to be a lot to ask a toaster to work well on whatever carbs you throw in it, but this one does it all and for a relatively low price.

I use this every morning to toast bread straight out of the freezer. I use setting 6 and the bread comes out lightly toasted. It does take longer to toast the bread than my previous Oster toaster, that this new one replaced. The slots are wide and it is easy to remove the bread, without burning your fingers or trying to shake the bread out. Aesthetically it is so cute. I enjoy using it

Have had no issues with my new toaster, works great. Also looks good in my kitchen.

Love this toaster. Works great. Easy to use. Slots will fit bagels so that made it perfect for my family. Also has a nice feature to check the progress without having to start toasting over

This is a super cute toaster and it does a great job on toast. Unfortunately the handle lever thingy is cheaply made. It was kinda wonky when I got it and after about 3 months of use it is balking at latching down. Sent a message to Oster a few days ago, but no resolution yet.

It’s small an it’s easy to use

I ordered this toaster in July 2024 and now I’m back on Amazon to look for a replacement. I made toast approximately once a week with this toaster and it would barely warm the bread so I had to go for two cycles on the highest setting. All the heating elements look normal. Now, the toaster refuses to do more than one round of toast at all. Save your money and buy something else.

♥️ This toaster. Not only does it look good but i had forgotten HOW properly toasted toast should taste.If i must have anything negative to say it may be the little browning control button. I can see the numbers but the arrow is so tiny I’m planning to dab it ever so lightly with red nail Polish….or maybe I’m just blind as a bat.
