Cuisinart 2-Slice XL Slot Stainless Steel Toaster

The stainless steel toaster is made for everyday toasting with room for variety, from bagels and frozen waffles to longer slices from homemade or artisanal loaves. The extra-large slots help accommodate thicker or longer breads without forcing a tight fit.

Extra-large slots give you more flexibility with what you toast, especially thicker cuts and longer slices that do not always fit standard openings. They are also handy when you are switching between bagels, toast and waffles in the same morning.

Use the check-in-progress lever to lift the bread and take a quick look at browning, then lower it back down to continue the cycle. On the stainless steel toaster, it is a simple way to fine-tune results when you are toasting different breads back to back.

Start with a middle setting, then adjust up or down based on your preference and the type of bread you are using. If you are trying a new loaf, the check-in-progress lever makes it easy to check color and dial it in the next round.

Let the toaster cool completely, then slide out the crumb tray to empty and wipe it clean before reinserting it. Keeping up with crumbs regularly helps keep the toaster tidy and ready for the next breakfast.
