Good toaster, great price, strange cord placement
What we like: We LOVE the keep warm feature, and to have it on such an inexpensive product is great. Some people complain about the beep, but it's actually perfect. Besides, what in our kitchens doesn't beep these days? The slots are wide enough for almost any breakfast carb, but the inside holders keep thinner things perfectly centered for even toasting.
Here's one big issue however: The electrical cord is attached toward the front of the toaster and comes out of the bottom, and it's not very long. In our home, we have to position the toaster closer to the wall, under the cabinets, or facing the other direction, because of the cord placement. It would have made more sense to put the cord in the back. What is nice about the cord is that it does wrap up underneath keeping it out of the way. However, the cord is NOT retractable as some other toasters.
