EFFORTLESSLY TOAST THICKER BREADS: Wider than the slots on many 2 slice toasters, the toast slots on this extra-wide-slot toaster are extra wide to easily fit bagels and thick-cut breads. PERFECTLY TOAST BAGELS: The bagel function on this 2 slice toaster toasts the cut side of the bagel and warms the outside for a great bagel-eating experience. You get crunchy, toasted bread on one side and warm, soft bread on the other. EASILY RETRIEVE SMALLER BREADS: Toast Boost lifts smaller breads like English muffins and gluten-free bread slices, so they’re easier to retrieve from the bread toaster after toasting EASY CLEANUP: The drop-down crumb tray catches crumbs to keep them off your countertop. Just release the tray to discard crumbs. CUSTOMIZE YOUR TOAST SHADE: Use the shade selector to make lighter or darker toast. Choose from 7 toast shades. Use the cancel button to stop the toasting cycle at any time. No waiting to get your toast.
