For some time we use this toaster, and are very satisfied! He tans very evenly (we toast especially wholegrain toast and "real" whole wheat bread). The important thing Bun essay was in selecting the one of the four-slot (we are 5 people), the built-in (!) (Also works very well and does not fly in the kitchen rum!) And above all the fact that he does not just "Electronic means" with digital bells and whistles - and then turn standby current consumed! Also, due to around gymnasts on the countertop children of Strecker must often be drawn. The often criticized fact the black knob would hard to read, does not bother us. The "point" it can be seen quite, and once you have found his ideal degree of browning, you have to vary rarely. And as a "wobbly" we do not feel it too. So far, a good buy!
