The two-slice lever toaster is an essential for any kitchen. Not only is it designed in the clean, attractive style we've become accustom to with KitchenAid products, but there are a number of technical settings too, such as defrost, reheat and bagel. This opens the door for a variety of toasting methods, placing emphasis on the wants of a user.
There are a variety of timer settings to choose from, depending on your desired outcome. In accordance with this, a timer has been installed on the toaster, especially useful for the time consumed user.
With usual KitchenAid products, the toaster beeps to indicate a certain action (for example, when choosing a setting and when the toast is ready). This comes off as more of a nuisance as opposed to a helpful add-on, as the noise is rather penetrating and can't be disabled.
If you're an avid toast fan or simply in need of more than two slices at a time, this toaster also comes in a four-slice option. What's more, the same features all translate across. Both of these toasters are also manufactured in a variety of colours, in keeping with a number of other KitchenAid products.
