Anomalies in toast settings
From the multiple reviews of this toaster, itâs apparent that the darkness settings vary wildly from unit to unit. Recommendations for the proper brownness run from 2 and up. Hereâs my experience with Earthgrains Healthnut bread, my favorite sandwich bread. At 3-1/2 using the single slice function, no toasting at all. Same at 4-1/2. At 5-1/2, perfection! Both sides were evenly and perfectly browned.
For a Bays English muffin using the bagel function, at 3-1/2, no toasting at all. Same at 4-1/2. At 6-1/2, perfection! The cut side was evenly and perfectly browned while the bottom side was soft, warm and untoasted.
I donât have white bread to test, and you can take these settings as proper for my unit. Calibration at the factory may be an issue on this unit or on other units that have been reviewed, so take the time to experiment.
As nearly everyone has observed, the toasting is slow. These settings were from a cold unit. Every toaster has a shorter toasting time for subsequent toast while the toaster is hot, so toast accordingly. Also, the generous 6â slot makes it ideal for longer loaves, like Daveâs and Brownberry.
The proper dimensions are: W (at bottom) 6-5/8â H 7-1/2â L (including protrusions) 11-1/4â. It fits perfectly in my kitchen small appliance cubbyhole. My wife wanted simple controls (fewer things to break), and this delivers. Very happy with performance, price and quality. Highly recommend.

Excellent Vqlue!
There’s a reason Hamilton Beach has been around since 1910, and that’s because their products are GOOD and VALUE-PRICED. I’ve never had any issues with anything made by HB, and this toaster is another of their small appliances that I’m completely happy with! I have a toaster oven, but wanted a toaster because it would toast bread quicker, and I wanted just a 2-slicer, yet I needed it to be able to handle those longer (not thicker) pieces of bread. When I found this one — and it was priced at less than $30 — well, I quit searching and placed an order. So pleased with this product. Toasts evenly and slices of my homemade bread, which I make in large boulles, fit just fine in the slots. I also like the easy controls. Nothing difficult. Not a bunch of unnecessary options. This is also a great toaster for bagels. Don’t be fooled by its light weight. My last toaster, which was a high-end brand, was heavy, not to mention expensive. This HB toaster does a better job for me!

I’ll keep it.
After 30+ years, my beloved Sunbeam toaster is toast 🙁 I had hoped to find a vintage version for sale somewhere, but no such luck. This is an OK toaster, and does a decent job of toasting both sides fairly evenly. However, as others have commented, it IS slow, and both slots heat up, even when selecting the “single slice” option. Sometimes, the bread doesn’t stay down on the first try, but may need 1-2 additional tries before it does. The slots are wide and long – perfect for my homemade bread (a major selling point for me). It has a “tinnier” feel than my old toaster – lighter in weight and not as solid-feeling, but I do like the matte-finish sides that don’t show finger marks (the ends are shiny metal, though). The cord is on the short side, as others have mentioned, but not a problem for my situation. I just hope this one lasts half as long as my older one.

Love The Longer Slots For My Bread
Love the longer slots for my wider pan bread. No more having to pop the bread up and turn it over because the whole slice doesn’t fit. I think that is what shortened the life of my previous toaster which only fit the smaller slices of cheap bread. Very happy I chose this toaster. Works great for me. If you want medium toast, set it to 4, 3 is a bit light. Easy to use. Now I can put my bread in and don’t have to watch it. Fits in pretty much same space as my old toaster. Much better than a toaster with a single long slot for bread side by side in same slot. The little bit of extra money that I spent when I bought this on sale looks like it will be well worth it. No more interruptions!

Nice toaster. Get one
Bought this to replace our old toaster. Who wants to do that?! You get used to a thing, use it for years and then nothing.
Anyway, this is a nice toaster. Maybe not an heirloom but it toasts well, has a bagel setting that toasts one side of the thing, and a single slice button that magically does something if you only need a single slice. What does the button do? Who knows.. it certainly doesn’t turn off the coils in the unused slot.
But it toasts well and the slots are wide enough for bagels and long enough for my bread machine bread slices so I give this unit a bunch of stars.

Sounds better than it is!
I knew going in that this toaster had the plug near the front on the side, but I didnât think it would be a big deal as I keep my toaster in a cabinet under the counter. Well, I hate it. I bought this in very late September 2024 and I use it every day. The cord is as stiff today as it was the day I got it. Thereâs no give to it and it really is in the way.
When I first got the toaster, I overlooked the cord because the toast was just perfect, and I didnât even realize how bad my old toaster was at even toasting. But now, less than four months later, thereâs nothing even about the toasting â some areas are lighter than others, and both sides of the bread are toasted differently.
Sorry, I canât recommend this one.
