A Great Toaster
I had an Oster 4 slice toaster for probably 10 or more. It was so good. But I gave it to my daughter because I don’t need such a big toaster anymore. I tried 2 other 2 slice toasters. They both were terrible. I decided to go with Oster 2 slice. Now this is a Toaster! I love it! Oster knows how to make a good toaster!

Functional and Attractive Toaster
This review is for - Oster 2-Slice Toaster with Advanced Toast Technology, Stainless Steel===============================Update: Feb 2, 2025It's been 3 years & 3 months since my original review below. This toaster gets a lot of use, almost daily -and I'm happy to share that it still does a great job of toasting bread, and there have been no problems. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again and if you need a bread toaster, I still recommend it.===============================Original Review, November 7, 2021AppearanceVery nice looking appliance that reminds me of the metal toasters from the 1960's. But it does like to show fingerprints and smudges - even when I don't remember touching the darned thing. So I keep a microfiber cloth in a kitchen drawer to touch it up every now and then.FunctionsThis toaster is advertised as having 'Advanced Toast Technology' but I didn't see any explanation of that term in the documentation - although it may be in there somewhere. My guess is the marketers are referring to the three buttons that light up, located on either side of the toasting-darkness knob. The buttons are labeled Bagel, Frozen, and Cancel, but I also didn't see anything in the included documentation explaining exactly what to expect when using the Bagel and Frozen buttons.PerformanceAs with most toasters, there's a lever that must be pressed down to lower the bread into the toaster and turn the heating elements on. I found that the lever has to be 'very' firmly pressed down for the platform to lock into the toasting position. Only time will tell if this is normal, or whether it's an indication that something is amiss.As expected the Cancel button immediately raises the platform the bread sits on, and turns the heating coils off. At the end of one toasting cycle I had a bagel get stuck, such that it kept the platform from raising and the coils from turning off. Pressing the Cancel button did nothing because the bagel was holding the platform down, so I had to pull up on the lever. To manually raise the platform in this situation, enough force had to be applied that I thought it might break. But it didn't, and the toaster still works well. (Maybe I should have pressed the Cancel button while lifting the lever.)My tests of the Bagel and Frozen buttons did not show any advantages to using them. Using the same toasting darkness setting I initially set for unfrozen sandwich bread, all subsequent tests of button combinations for frozen and unfrozen bagels and sandwich bread returned the same results. The Frozen and Bagel settings 'may' lengthen the toasting cycle, but my tests did not show a meaningful difference. A sentence or two in the documentation explaining exactly what to expect from these buttons would have been helpful.Bread slices are toasted slightly darker on the sides closest to the inside of the toaster, but it's usually only noticeable if I'm looking for it.It Gets HotAfter one cycle of toasting 2 slices of bread, the top of the toaster gets very warm, but nowhere near warm enough to burn my skin. After running the toaster two cycles back-to-back, the top is warm enough to make me think twice about touching the toaster top. After 3+ cycles the top feels hot enough to provide a significant burn, if I were to leave my hand in contact. My take... so what? It's a toaster that works by running electricity through thin wires that get red-hot. So enjoy your toast and use common sense, especially if young children have access to it. And if you do touch the top of the toaster when it's hot, your automatic reflexes should force you to retract your hand before you get a skin burn - because you'll never actually touch the red-hot wires.Common Sense Tips:1. Do not use the toaster when it's sitting directly under a cabinet as the rising heat will eventually discolor the paint or finish. And of course there's always a fire danger if the cabinet is close enough. (In my small kitchen, the toaster has a permanent home under a cabinet and I pull it clear of the cabinet when in use.)2. Literally everyone should know this, but just in case somebody missed this lesson:Never, ever stick metal utensils of any kind inside the toaster when it's plugged in. If you do so, the utensil and your body could instantly become electrified. It doesn't feel good; Trust me. If bread becomes stuck inside, UNPLUG the toaster and fish the bread out with plastic or wood utensils if possible. While you're bread-fishing, avoid touching the thin wires as they break easily and that will turn your bread toaster into a bread holder.Bottom Line:I really like this toaster and recommend it!It's a nice looking, competitively priced toaster that does a good job at toasting bread and bagels (without using the advanced function buttons) , while the claim of Advanced Toast Technology seems to be overblown and undocumented.

Perfect Toaster Purchase
I purchased this toaster several months ago and I am still very happy with it. In fact, every time it is used, I am reminded of how perfect a purchase this was. It toasts evenly on both sides of the bread. The frozen and bagel settings are used multiple times each week. The setting knob is easy to read with or without glasses. This is a superior replacement for our previous toaster. Both thumbs up!

Quality at an affordable price
Good Toaster. Makes toast dependably, and the toast settings seem to be pretty accurate. Only thing is when you're toasting a bagel. One side is brown, and the other get's pretty dark. Brushed stainless body stays cool to the touch and is easy to clean. It has an ample length cord. Two selector buttons on the toaster allow you to select Bagel or Frozen. Nice blue LED outline on the switches. For the price, you can't go wrong.

This toaster sucks
My biggest complaint about this toaster is that the slots are too short - yeah, they're WIDE enough, but almost any store-bought, standard sized bread is too long for the toaster slot. Consequently, you have to cut your bread shorter just to get it the slot (or force the bread down once you drop the lever). That, and the fact the it toasts inconsistently and unevenly make me give this a bad review. Poor product design and cheap manufacturing. Too bad, the last Oster toaster I had worked perfect for 15 years - this one is not that one.
