bella Stainless Steel 2 Slice Toaster with Extra Wide Slots & Removable Crumb Tray, 6 Browning Options, Auto Shut Off & Reheat Function, Toast Bread, Bagel & Waffle

Don't be fooled, this little toaster can do it all. Can it toast extra long slices of bread? No. Can you shove buttered bagels in and expect it to last long? You could, but probably shouldn't, and should be ashamed, you toaster abuser. Other than that, I've only used regular sized bagel slices, Texas Toast, wheat bread and standard white bread (all unslathered, you heathens). They have all fit. I have not had any one-sided toasting issues (yes the middle coils heat up) and all the breads I've tried fit from top to bottom. I also ordered mine from the open box special and it arrived in pristine condition. I love my toast on the light/medium side a little after the 2 setting and it toasts beautifully. Soft on the inside but light gold and crispy on the outside. Apartment dweller here and if like me you are short on space, this is a tiny toaster, similar in size to the one I had to replace, the bargain priced plastic white toaster in (insert Big Box Store), so it csn fit in cramped spaces.Now some downsides. If, like me, you have to put your toaster away for to lack of space, being thin S.S, it heats up on the outside so no handling right away. I let mine cool for a minute before putting away in a cabinet. Keep that in mind if you have small kids too. And last, unlike my Cheap Plastic Workhorse that lasted 10 years, fingerprints stay printed unless wiped off ..as is common for stainless steel, so if this is something that will bother you, look for something not standard S.S designed, maybe brushed or "enamel look" metal or stick with plastic. Oh and cancel button works great and it also has an area to store the cord underneath and of course a crumb tray. Great little stainless steel toaster for the price of a plastic one!

I was specifically looking for a no-frills, affordable toaster after my last “high-end” one gave out in less than six months. I didn’t want to spend a lot this time around, so when I found this Bella 2-slice toaster on Prime Day for under $15, I figured it was worth a shot. Honestly, for the price, I’m really pleased.The design is simple but nice. The stainless steel gives it a clean, modern look that doesn’t feel cheap despite the low cost. It feels sturdier than I expected, definitely a step up from the very cheapest models you’d find at Walmart or a dollar store.Performance-wise, it does exactly what it needs to do. The extra-wide slots are a nice touch—they easily fit thicker slices of bread like Texas toast and bagels without any trouble. It toasts quickly and evenly, although it does run a bit hot on the higher settings. That’s not a huge deal, though—once you get a feel for the dial and adjust to your preferred browning level, it’s easy to get consistent results. The six browning options give plenty of flexibility, and the reheat function is a bonus I didn’t think I’d use but have found handy a few times.The removable crumb tray makes cleanup easy, and the auto shut-off gives me some peace of mind when I’m multitasking in the kitchen. It’s not a luxury appliance, but it doesn’t try to be. It’s reliable, functional, and a fantastic value for the price I paid.If you’re looking for a budget-friendly toaster that performs well and doesn’t feel like it’s going to fall apart after a few uses, this is a great option. I’m happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend it for anyone who wants something simple and dependable.

The BELLA Stainless Steel 2 Slice Toaster is a decent, no-frills option for basic toasting needs. The extra-wide slots are great for accommodating thicker bread slices, bagels, and waffles without getting stuck. It offers 6 browning settings, so you can find the right level of crispness for your toast, and the stainless steel design gives it a sleek, modern look that fits well in most kitchens.However, there are a few drawbacks. The toasting can be a bit uneven at times, with one side of the bread getting darker than the other. Also, the dial for the browning settings is not very precise, making it tricky to get consistent results. On the positive side, the removable crumb tray is a nice touch, making cleanup easier.Overall, it’s a decent toaster for the price, but it could use some improvements in terms of toasting consistency and control.

Works fine, great value.

Overall not a bad toaster for the price. However, this toaster does not toast a whole piece of bread it gets about 2/3ds a piece, which means you have to flip the bread over and retoast it leading to a more burned middle.

works great not one issue so far, and you can adjust temp and settings on it so i like that, good purchase for a cheaper end toaster

Nice little toaster does a good job and is fun to look at!

Not great. So short that toast stuck out the top. Returned it
