Best toaster we’ve bought in years!

This is a GREAT toaster. We’ve bought so many lousy toasters in the past five years but we finally bought the right one. Makes perfect toast and bagels weather frozen or not. It looks great and takes up less room set back against the counter backsplash out of the way. Love the red! Matches my Kitchenaid mixer and coffee maker!

Update: make sure the crumb tray is in place!

UPDATE: We thought it was broken because it wouldn't depress. turns out the crumb tray wasn't in place and this is some sort of safety mechanism. LURVE THIS TOASTER! One of the best features is that the buttons for the different settings (defrost, toast, bagel) don't have printing on them which can rub off over time effectively rendering them useless (I'm looking at you Oster). And it provides a surprising amount of entertainment for my kids and I what with the window to my toast's progress and the occasional flying toast which has so far landed quite helpfully on top of the toaster slot, actually making it very easy to retrieve our toast. Another unhappy mention for the Oster - it wouldn't pop the toast after maybe six months and I caught my kids fishing their toast out with a fork. Thankfully they have the sense to unplug it, but still. I have yet to comment on durability. My toaster is used, then put away, so it does need to be sturdy. I'll be happy if it outlasts my stupid Oster which didn't see it's first birthday.

This ones a keeper!

I am a toaster fanatic...always looking for a better one! This one may be “the one”! I love the window so you can keep an eye on your progress. The bagel function works well and we use it for toasting hamburger buns and it works great! It’s amusing that the toast pops up and OUT of the toaster... sometimes it lands on top of the toaster or flops onto the counter; it doesn’t bug me, my counters clean 🙃. It took probably 20 uses for the browning to regulate; at first the top portion of the bread would brown significantly more yhan the bottom. Idk why but it seems to have worked itself out and browns evenly now. I love it!

4 years later...Still a Great Toaster

Bought this in 2015 after trying many more expensive toasters. Going on 4 years and still works great. Latch stays down and love the fact you can see just how brown the toast is without having to raise it. I keep GF sliced bread in the freezer and pop in a slice frozen into the toaster on setting 6 1/2 and it comes out perfectly toasted every time. Price has increased however from $27 back in 2015 to $43. Still good value in my mind. If you're looking for a modern style functional toaster I'd recommend this one.

So Glad I Bought This Toaster

I loved the look of this toaster but was concerned with the mixed reviews. I decided, after looking at toasters that ran from $13 to $299 ( who pays $299 for a toaster ? ) this was so much more attractive than the others, it would be worth buying as long as I could return it if not working properly. So, for an additional $4 I bought the Amazon 4-year warranty. The toaster is great...lovely design and works just fine. I was concerned about the toast flying out of the toaster but, although it does pop up with more enthusiasm than most, the toast settles back into the slot. I have found that rather than use the defrost function the # 7 setting will toast frozen whole grain bread to perfection. So far, very happy with this product.

Well designed, great looking...and it toasts!

Just short of our 25th anniversary our old toaster (guess when we got it) bit the dust. There is limited counter space in the kitchen of our Victorian home and we thought the wall hugging design of this toaster was a good idea. The design has a sort of 1950s vibe to it - sort of a Wurlitzer juke box or maybe a little hint of Flash Gordon going on. We really like it. The PROs: *Can't say enough good about being able to see how your toast is doing - it's a whole dimension of usefulness that other toasters don't even address. *All controls are up front and highly visible - no more having to crane your neck down to the side of your toaster to see which button is which - and then having to guess anyway because the printing has probably worn off...or having to wonder which way you have to turn the dial to get your toast lighter or darker. *Really nice looking and a bit different. We like things that are a bit different, like each other, or our kids, or our dogs. The CONs: *I thought about dinging it a star because, as others have reported, the ejection spring is a bit - how shall we put it? - enthusiastic. Especially with a smaller or lighter item it will occasionally launch your breakfast right out of the slot. But on second thought we find this amusing rather than annoying - and far preferable to having to fish your toast out of the slot because your spring has lost its mojo. So we actually consider this a little plus. In case you're wondering, when you select bagel it toasts the side that's facing the window so you can still see how your toast is doing, so the designers were on the ball there. Right now ours tends to brown more quickly toward the top than the bottom but other reviewers have noted that this somehow evens out over time so we'll give it the benefit of the doubt and hope this will happen with ours. It's not drastically uneven but it is noticeable right now. My wife was a bit hesitant to spend more than about twenty bucks for a toaster but we're both glad we did as this thing is designed so very well, looks absolutely great, and is something that is just a bit different from the standard polished cube, adding a touch of style to the kitchen counter. And being able to see how our toast is doing means we may well never burn a breakfast again. Outstanding!

Home Run!

This is a very interesting toaster. There are two rods (about 1/4inch diameter by 11 inches long) at the bottom that get red hot and radiate upwards to toast. This is one reason I bought this toaster; I’m hoping that these rods will last longer and give better service than the old skinny wires that seem to go bad in spots in no time at all. We will see about this over time. But, the main reasons I give five stars to this toaster is 1) great look, 2) one long toaster slot, 3)view window, 4)unique heating elements. I can now toast odd things like hot dog and hamburger buns; or large bagels or even large pieces of bread from a loaf! And can decide to toast on one side or both! The only negative thing I can say is; I wish the crumb tray would slide out from the same side as the lever to start toasting. Other than that one minor want, this toaster is a home run! Worth the 50bucks! And would recommend this item to anyone interested. Thanks, Reamo

Early in the morning toast looks like a sunrise in its window and toast in the ...

This toaster is worth the price just for the entertainment value. Early in the morning toast looks like a sunrise in its window and toast in the evening is like watching the sunset by the orange glow in the see thru window. Some toast pops out and lands on top ready to pick up, sometimes the toast is found sitting on the counter next to the toaster when it has popped up, this will all depend on the weight of the bread (12 grain VS Wonder white)Seriously it does toast bread evenly and works good. I would try to toast breadsticks but I am afraid I might get hit by the flying bread sticks as they launch. Would buy again and have recommended to friends.

So far we like it. Very even browning

So far we like it. Very even browning. Perhaps takes a little longer to make toast. Be sure to use the Cancel button (in the end of the darkness selector wheel) instead of forcing the lever up. I suspect some people had issues because they forced the handle up when they wanted to cancel.

Unexpectedly, I LOVE This Toaster!

Let’s be real, we are talking about a toaster, a TOASTER! Why should anyone want to write a review of the most used and easiest to forget ancillary appliance you own? Because the Dash Clear View Toaster is that awesome! The short of it; don’t waste your time looking for anything else. This toaster can handle anything you throw at it with golden brown perfection, quickly. The Dash Clear View Toaster is the best bang for your buck, hands down! The long of it. We are a “somewhat” healthy eating family. We run the gambit when it comes to bread choices. Hardly ever white, mostly wheat for the kids, and tapioca and/or rice bread for the adults. Not all breads toast to perfection at the same rate. Each one of these breads has a very specific heat tolerance that can make for difficult toasting times. And that’s where the window really comes in handy. With the Dash Clear View Toaster you can sit back and enjoy the toasting experience all while watching the progress through its’ front window. Gone are the days of premature toast ejection just to check on the “doneness” of a specific bread only to have to reinsert the payload back into the heated bay. Visible perfection each and every time. With the white or Tapioca bread, which toast rather quickly, a quick turn to 4 gives us the perfect amount of crunch. The wheat bread takes slightly longer, about a 5 to a 5.5 max. And then there is the ALWAYS FROZEN rice bread. This beast of a bread (Food for Life brand) is twice toasted. Once as a 7 with “defrost” selected and a second plunge at a 7 without the “defrost” selected. AMAZING! The controls are easy to understand, clearly marked and simple to operate. Plug it in, place the toast in the slot provided, push down the plunger and away you go. It takes a matter of a use or two to figure out the proper settings to your liking. The “defrost” feature just doubles the time on the dial. The “bagel” feature only toasts on one side. With some sandwich breads like rye / pumpernickel etc. that have a tendency to toast really well and tear-up the roof of your mouth I like to use the bagel setting. Put the toasted side to the inside (meat side) and the soft untoasted side to the outside, you get the crunch without tearing up the roof of your mouth. AWESOMNESS! I have yet to use the “re-heat” feature … so you are on your own with that one. Sorry Charlie. As far as the toast rocketing from the toaster with the velocity of an unladen swallow, African or Eurpean – doesn’t matter, I have found that to be inconsequential. Does it pop up and sometime flop out on its own? Yes, rarely. But that has happened with my old toaster as well (a re-gifted 2 slice Panasonic that we got as a wedding gift 22 years ago). So really I kind of like the nostalgia of it when it does happen. BONUS! Let’s just hope that I get 22 years out of this amazing beast. So in conclusion, I just wrote an essay on a toaster. What the hell am I thinking?! Yes, it is that great. Click the “Add to Cart” button and get the Dash Clear View Toaster. You will not regret yourself for doing so, unlike your college spring break weekend. Love you son!
