Pros: Attractive styling, four large toasting slots, durable, consistent toasting, slide out crumb trays
Cons: Small muffins/toast don't eject well, get stuck, need to fish them out with fork
The Bottom Line: Good, durable, and flexible four slice toaster that I would recommend buying. Was a good buy at Wal Mart.

Good overall performance from this toaster, has stood up well with heavy usage so it is durable and strong.
It's a very attractive unit which will look well on any counter.
Has four large slots which handle large pieces/bagels but also has problem with small muffins and toast which get stuck and don't eject well so you must fish them out with a fork or something! So I would not recommend or buy it for somebody who is too mechanically challenged for this.
2 crumb trays offer a quick means of cleaning but don't really do what most people would consider cleaning, you will still have to brush trays and tip and shake the crumbs out of the unit just like an older model without the removable trays to get the unit as clean as possible.
Sometimes needs another toast cycle for muffins if they are out of the fridge, but that could be looked at as a plus, say if it's for somebody who burns toast easily.
Overall, most pieces toast well with just one cycle without burning on the highest setting.
Has different buttons to push for selecting things, like bagel, reheat. I like the cancel button which makes it pop up immediately rather than having to lift the lever or pull the cord on other models if you want to terminate the toasting for whatever reason.
