We've had this toaster a while now and it is a very used appliance in the kitchen. With a big family of hungry people the ability to toast 4 slices of bread at a time is brill however the flexibility of the toaster is good too - you can toast 2 or 4 pieces at a time, beating other toasters where you have to turn all 4 slots on.
