Tired of cold toast?

Think about toast for a minute. If you’re like most of us, you envision a golden brown slice of bread with little butter melting into the nooks and crannies. But, if you’re too slow, this isn’t always what you get. Distractions lead us away from the toaster and consequently our toast becomes cold.

The Hamilton Beach Keep Warm 4 Slice Long Slot Toaster has the solution. Built with an optional keep warm setting, this toaster beeps when it’s done, then keeps your toast warm for an extra 3 minutes without over-toasting.

Total piece of crap
1 Star
Total piece of crap
I really really wanted to like this toaster but I have now lowered my rating to 1 star and would give it zero stars if I could. Please, do not waste your time or money on this toaster. I have had previous toasters that lasted decades. I am not a heavy toaster user but this unit, after just 2 years, has large sections of the heating coil that no longer work. So it burns things in some places and barely tans them in others.I have left all the previous comments that I had written below but now I am off to find another toaster.So, there are a lot of 5 star reviews for this toaster. I'm going to tell you, people are either giving out 5 stars too easily or there are a lot of fake reviews. One thing I seem to notice is that almost every time there is a not so good rating there seems to be a 5 star rating posted shortly after that completely contradicts the bad rating. So make you own decisions.For me 5 stars means it exceeds my expectations. This one falls way short.I was so excited when I saw this toaster. I was like Yes, a toaster that looks good and has big long slots where I can toast anything I want.Is it a good toaster? well no, there are several design flaws that leave me scratching my head at the designers.1) The beep - This thing beeps every time you do something with it. when it starts toasting, when it stops toasting, etc.. Why? I have no idea. I can't say I know any other toasters that beep. It might be a nice feature for some people but why wouldn't you provide a way to turn the beep off for people who don't want to wake the rest of the house up when I want some toast in the morning.2) The photos are deceiving - The photos on the listing show 4 huge thick pieces of French bread in the toaster. Yes, the slots are long and can fit 4 pieces of bread but the slots don't appear to be much wider than any normal toaster and the cages, which close against your bread when you push the lever down to toast really don't allow for anything really thick to be put into the slot. **Update - After using the toaster for a while now, I have figured out that the "cages" aren't designed very well, they start closing as soon as you start to depress toaster lever. This results in whatever you are toasting getting hung up before it is all the way down into the toaster and therefore the tops don't get toasted like the rest. I have found myself constantly pushing the bagel or bread, etc down with my finger, which of course is dangerous.3) Uneven Toasting.- This unit doesn't seem to toast evenly. I am finding myself having to toast everything twice. Toast it once then flip it over and toast it again. Even doing this, I am finding that waffles tend to get close to burning on top and not quite done the bottom.4) Poor design of Insertion mechanism and weak springs - . .The Insertion mechanism does not allow items to drop far enough down into the toaster to be toasted properly.. Your standard Eggo waffle with not get toasted on the very top because it won't go down far enough into the toaster. Additionally the springs that pop your toast up are not strong enough and you have to constantly lift the handle to get the toast high enough where you don't burn your finger trying to remove it from the toaster.5) The location and length of the cord. Why the heck did you put the cord in the front? - OK so let's just ignore that question and assume that due to the design the only place to attach the cord was near the front, fine, I'll accept that, but you have to know that most people don't have an electric outlet on the front of their cabinets. Therefore we'll all need to run the cord from the front of the toaster to the back of the counter top and then up the wall about 6 or 8 inches to reach the electrical outlet and that's assuming we can put the toaster on the counter right in front of the outlet. How about giving us a little longer cord so we have some options as to where to put the toaster on our counter top? Seriously, the unit itself is 16 inches long, by the time I run the cord under the toaster I've got maybe 15 inches left to get to whatever electric outlet I want to use. Assuming that my outlets are 6 inches up the wall, that gives me a whole 9 inches of cord to work with. sure my kitchen would look great with extension cords running to every counter top appliance.6) Why is there an indented rim around the top - This is one that really gets me. Everyone who has ever used a toaster knows that crumbs, seeds, and other small particles constantly come off of the food you are toasting, That's why toasters have a crumb tray. Right? So why would you design a toaster that has depression rim all the way around the top where small pieces of food can fall into and it's an absolute PIA to clean out? Sure, I guess I could keep my vacuum cleaner in my kitchen so every time I toast something I can vacuum the top of my toaster. I mean after all my vacuum has a long enough cord that I can reach the toaster. But really? come on. Who the heck designed this thing?I've attached a photo to show the inconsistency of this toaster. This is two halves of a bagel. Both halves are approximately the same thickness. Both halves were put into the same slot of the toaster at the same time. My setting on the toaster is between 5 and 6. As you can see, one of them is almost burnt and the other half is barely toasted.Maybe some people are getting good models and some are getting bad models, so the company's quality control sucks, I don't know for sure but I would not recommend this toaster.5 stars? you're not doing anyone any favors by rating that way. .Nuff Said

5.0 out of 5 stars Sourdough bakers rejoice!
Reviewed in Canada on July 6, 2020
Like so many others, I've recently started baking my own sourdough bread. I like my bread toasted, and didn't know there was an easy way to toast a full slice of this oversized goodness until I saw this long slot toaster.

Bottom line: it's a keeper!

Pluses: FINALLY! I can toast a full slice of sourdough (or any other artisanal beard I bake). The LONG 10" (25.4 cm) slots easily accommodate any slice I'll probably produce. Many reviewers noted to beeps, which I actually like. If I'm busy making several things at once, I don't overlook that the toast has popped up. If it's going to be buttered I can slather on the topping while the toast is at its warmest.

Someone also mentioned they don't like that the cord comes out the front. Well guess what? You can easily run the cord beneath the toaster so it exits out the back. They made room for it to exit between the two rear feet.

Some reviewers also mentioned the bagel setting did nothing. It works perfectly on mine, turning off the outside sets of elements in both slots. As long as you put the bagel in with the sliced part towards the centre you'll be fine. If by change you get one that doesn't turn off the outboard elements, it's probably a manufacturing issue. Just have Amazon ship a replacement.

Negatives: The elements are HOT so it does toast quickly. When you first get it, it will probably take some trial-and-error to get the perfect setting. Because it is much more efficient that my previous Hamilton Beach toaster, it cooks more quickly and I did burn a slice leaving it in too long. Once I got the setting where I wanted it, the toast is consistent and perfectly toasted.

UPDATE: There are several comments about it burning toast around the edges. After much experimentation, I've come to the conclusion this is because of the long slot and only happens when the shot isn't full of bread. Here's what happens: When you put a slice of bread in, all the elements heat up. The elements that are adjacent to the bread do their job and toast it. The sections of elements that have no toast in front of them still heat, which super-heats the air in the slot. That extra-hot air is now next to the edges of the bread in the slot, so in effect the edges are heated more quickly (from all that extra-hot air in the empty portion of the slot). When the slot is filled completely with bread (two sandwich-size slices end to end), it toasts very evenly.

I've found that by setting the toaster to a lower number and toasting twice, the slot can cool a bit and the edges don't burn.
