ZWILLINGEnfinigy 2 Long Slot Toaster, 4 Slices with Extra Wide 1.5" Slots for Bagels, 7 Toast Settings, Even Toasting, Reheat, Cancel, Defrost, Black

This is the best toaster we have ever owned. So far, we have used it to toast bread, bagels, and English muffins. It takes a little (actually a lot) longer for the items to toast but they toast perfectly. It's well worth the wait. I make my expresso while I'm waiting for the toaster to finish doing its thing. The black toaster looks great on our black granite countertop so no reason to put it away after using it. It's easy to clean too.

After two years of toaster frustration, I've finally found a winner in the Zwilling Enfinigy Cool Touch Toaster. In the past two years alone, I've purchased a Black+Decker ($40) and a Cuisinart ($80), both of which promised even toasting. Both failed miserably.The Black+Decker was a complete hit-or-miss, burning one side while leaving the other pale. The Cuisinart, while slightly better, was still inconsistent, and definitely not worth the doubled price tag. I was ready to give up on the perfect slice of toast.Then, I decided to take a chance on the Zwilling Enfinigy. I was hesitant given the price point, but the reviews were promising, and I was desperate. And let me tell you, it delivered!The Zwilling toasts perfectly, every single time. I've used it for everything from thin slices of sourdough to thick bagels, and the results are consistently golden brown and evenly toasted. No more burnt edges or soggy middles!What I particularly appreciate is the simplicity of the design. The single knob adjustment makes it incredibly easy to dial in the perfect level of toastiness. No complicated settings or confusing buttons. Just a simple, reliable toaster that does its job exceptionally well.Pros:Even and consistent toasting.Simple, intuitive one-knob operation.Cool-touch exterior (a nice safety feature).Sleek, modern design.Cons:A bit pricier than other toasters.If you're tired of toasters that underperform, I highly recommend the Zwilling Enfinigy. It's an investment, but it's worth it for the consistently perfect toast. I'm finally enjoying my morning toast again!

Returned- straight out of the box. For the price this is extremely poorly made. The supposedly stainless is a painted-on surface, the whole top part is thin plastic. Nope! not for 170$ bucks, this is a 40 dollar item-tops. (had a ZWILLING coffee maker that I loved & lasted a good 15 years) I to refuse to pay top dollars for junk. Its lightweight plastic construction will not provide durability. A GIANT NO! on this purchase. Returning immediately.

I've only used it once and it worked like a toaster is supposed to work.

It toasts bread just fine! No problems there; nice and even browning. Well constructed and big enough to toast pretty much anything you've got.What is disapointing for the money: The numbers on the adjustment knob are small and hard to see. The indicators/markings on the bagel, warming and defrosting bottons are nearly impossible to see (the typical black on black), so memorize their positions. Using the begal setting will never burn your bagel, you'll need to turn the browing knob to maximum to get a reasonable browing, at least with the brand name bagels I use.It's a good toaster and a fair value, but not the best I was hoping for.

I had hoped a 100 dollar toaster would toast both sides the same. This is the 4th toaster I have bought with the hope of getting back to the days when a toaster toasted both sides of the toast the same. I have concluded that regardless of the brand or price, the guts of the toasters are coming from the same manufacturer. I assume that manufacturer is overseas. Just another decline in American standard of quality.This is an update..... I have been using this $100 toaster for a few weeks. It is no different then the 4 less expensive toasters I have tried over the past year. I am in my 60s and have a life time of experience with toasters. I have never experienced such garbage in toasters today. Every week I throw out more toast because the thermostats do not adjust. I can be on the same setting and it either under cooks or over cooks. I can turn the setting down and it overcooks more than the higher setting. Always, one side cooks more than the otherside. The guts of the toasters are the same for any toaster today and the guts are horrible. What a financial opportunity for a competitor manufacturer to bring back the toaster technology of years past.

Works great. Best toaster I have had including ninja xl toaster oven and Breville toaster previously. I am learning the settings quickly but it toasts evenly on both sides, the pop up feature when done keeps me from having to use bamboo tweezers to pull the toasted/warmed/defrosted item out of the toaster when done. I have done two halves of frozen Belgian Waffles I make on the warm cycle and artisan bread just now. It is the most uniform coverage toaster I have ever had. not overly complex but it works like a gem. All I want. Best in my long life as toasters go...by far.

This toaster is one of the best quality small appliance, a great purchase! It toasts perfectly, the bagel setting out performs any toaster I have ever used. It is aesthetically pleasing on the counter, the pop up function is super quiet and operates so smoothly. The appliance feels sturdy and high level of quality is evident as are most products this manufacturer produces. Highly recommend.
