Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When I decided I wanted to upgrade from a two-slice toaster to one that accommodated four slices, I researched the possibilities by visiting many stores, asking friends for recommendations, and reading reviews here. I finally settled on this T-Fal Avante toaster, which comes in shiny chrome metal and black plastic, with wide but short slots for four slices of bread. Perhaps the best feature is its dual toasting system, with two slots working independently of the other two, allowing for different settings and different start times. The slots are angled forward, and have lifts to raise the toast higher out of the slots upon completion of the toasting cycle. The two special settings, bagel browning (single side toasting) and reheat, apply to only one side - two slots - of the toaster. Both sides have independent cancel buttons. The back of the machine is flat, and so can be placed flush against a backsplash. The browning is even as long as both pieces of bread are the same thickness.
The disadvantages of the T-Fal are few, but perhaps important. First, the slots are of average length, sometimes making it difficult to fit bread machine slices inside. The slide-out crumb trays are inconveniently located in the back of the machine. The look is chunky: 12 inches wide and 10 inches deep.
I wish I could say that this model is perfect; however, in twenty years I have yet to find a toaster that works as well as it should. This toaster at least seems to satisfy most conditions.

With its sleek, sophisticated design, this four-slice toaster not only looks great in any contemporary kitchen, but it also features extra-wide, self-adjusting slots that can accommodate various types of breads, including bagels, buns, and English muffins. Its user-friendly control panel offers simple push-button controls including a bagel function for toasting just the cut side, a reheat setting to warm already toasted bread, and a cancel option to end the session at any time. Choose from six electronic browning-control settings from light to dark by turning the knob. Double levers and double control knobs make it possible to operate two of the slots independently from the other two slots. Even more, the toaster's slanted design allows for effortlessly keeping an eye on the process, plus makes for simple toast removal. For added convenience, the unit provides an anti-jam function that stops the toast cycle to ensure safe operation and a high-lift lever for removing smaller items. Other highlights include a safe-to-touch exterior, a pull-out crumb tray for quick cleanup, convenient cord storage, and an easy-access carrying handle. The toaster measures approximately 11-1/2 by 10 by 8-3/5 inches.
