BELLA 4 Slice Long Slot Toaster

I was very excited to receive this toaster. I loved the long-slot design (for larger pieces of bread) and the blue color. However, I was extremely disappointed when the toaster arrived. First, the entire toaster (except the heating portion) is made of very flimsy plastic. The plastic runs right up against the heating elements and will easily burn after a few uses. In fact, the moment we turned the toaster on the practice some toast, we smelled burning plastic. The plastic on the top of the unit was hot to the touch. Even if this toaster did a good job (which it didn't) I would return based on its flimsy quality and fire risk. Second, and equally important, is that it does a terrible job of toasting! As you can see by the photos, the toast was reasonable (but patchy) on one side, and completely un-toasted on the other. We tried several pieces of toast and all of them came out untoasted on one side and patch on the other regardless of adjusting the setting. So, please save your money and don't purchase this toaster. Although it looks cute, it's a fire hazard and fails to do its one simple job of evenly toasting a piece of bread. I returned mine immediately.
