I'm extremely disappointed in this toaster. It looks great, but unlike the Cuisinart Coffee Maker, this does not meet expectations. Within a couple of years, the toast started toasting on one side. Then last year 2 burners stopped operating completely. A toaster should last at least 10 years. This one lasted two... just long enough for the warranty to be useless. Don't be fooled by its pretty retro look... it's a disappointing toaster.
