Is there such a thing as a perfect toaster. After all the many reviews of many different brands I went with this one, mainly because of the brand name and visual appearance. Some commented “it doesn’t toast evenly”. Probably true within reason but I really don’t need a perfectly cooked piece of toast. I wanted a toaster for sour dough bread. Works brilliantly, one slice in each slot. It will fit 4 regular/standard slices of bread but not for example the Pepperidge Farm Rye bread which is a bit wider - it only fits one slice on each side. Overall I’m happy with my choice so far. Easy to use, toasts quickly, it’s slim line, sturdy and looks good. I’d give it 4-½ *

High hopes...smashed
I had such high hopes for this toaster. First off, it's an Oster, a long time, good quality, well known household brand. I bit the bullet and paid waaaay more than I ever would normally for something that perfectly toasts a few pieces of bread a week, sitting on my counter looking fab the rest of the time.Sadly, not only did it cook very slowly, even on the highest setting, but the cook was uneven. Sometimes it wouldn't pop up according to the setting, but randomly. Some sections of the elements inside didn't get hot therefore, didn't toast the bread. So...bust #1.Let's talk about the exterior. It's stainless, it shows nicely on your counter. It should be easily maintained with stainless steel cleaner. It should look fabulous for longer than my cheap $20 toaster from Walmart, right? Wrong. Within 4-6 weeks of owning it, I noticed what seemed to be rust showing up on one of the corners. Fast forward 3-4 additional weeks and as you can see by the pictures, is a lot of rust. This is 3-4 months in. Months. Now, I do live in AL so, I do recognize the humidity factor. But I have lived in LA and GA both areas far more humid and never experienced this issue. My other appliances are also stainless and have no issue. Sad. Bust #2I was rather disappointed in the quality of this item. The cord configuration doesn't work if you plan on pushing it flat against the wall, as it comes out of the end and there is no way to make it come out of the back. That would be a small, useful and zero cost feature.Then, there is a funky flavor that this thing gives to your toast. I did the initial burn off 3 times to make sure it all came off considering not all the elements were working properly. I can only think that still didn't work and therefore was slowly burning off as I was toasting. I really can't say, but I nor my kids can't eat it safely, I'm sure.Ultimately, I was really disappointed by the entire product as a whole. Where is the quality and functionality anymore?

Bread comes out perfect every single time. I love the long slots as well.
