Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum 10709-913US Bistro 2-Slice Toaster with Bagel and Bun Warmer, Off White

Customer Review: If it fits, toast it!,
Summary: 2 Stars

After looking at many toasters and reading many reviews, I purchased the Bodum Bistro 2-slice toaster to replace our aging single extra wide-extra long slot toaster that died.

I got into trouble immediately with my better half over the "oval" style of this toaster. Be forewarned...if you prefer a traditional style, better pass on this one. I convinced my spouse to give it a chance based on all the wonderful reviews as to how great it toasted bread.

After it arrived and we started to use it, it was clear I was in trouble again. None of the breads we buy fit in the slot without surgery or using our hand to force it down in the slot. Lest you think we buy weird sized breads, think again. We typically buy a popular sliced multi-grain, a sliced sourdough, and a sliced French bread. The edges of the two latter breads had to be trimmed (scissors work fine) to fit the bread in the slot. The multi-grain fit a bit snugly in the slot opening so it had to be pushed down by hand in the slot. Thomas muffins fit when sliced in half with a knife and toast OK but toasting needs monitoring.

For all that was heralded about this unit's toasting prowess, we found that it toasted about the same as our toaster that died. We are picky about the degree of toasting so with our old toaster, we were popping the bread up once or twice to check the progress of the piece we were toasting. This practice was also required with the Bodum although I finally found a heat setting that allowed me to "trust" the toaster with my multi-grain which, once toasted, shrank in size slightly so it popped up normally.

After three weeks of failing to find enough reasons to be happy with this toaster, we decided to return it. Five stars to Amazon's return system!!

On a positive note, the quality of the unit is impressive: fit, finish, materials, and operation. If you only toast "real standard" bread sizes (think Wonder bread) and you like an interesting but different design, this unit will please you.

I gave it two stars because for the reasons noted - it didn't work out for us.

Description of Bodum 10709-913US Bistro 2-Slice Toaster with Bagel and Bun Warmer, Off White

What is it about the aroma of freshly toasted bread in the morning that makes us feel like we?re going to have a perfect day. All of the orange juice and jam in the world can?t duplicate that same effect without the scent of warm toast. It?s quite amazing how toasted bread can lift our spirits. The BISTRO Toaster by BODUM is designed to toast to perfection. The variable browning button lets you set the toaster to your preferred browning, delivering perfectly toasted bread every time. The BODUM Bistro Toaster includes a handy defrost feature and comes with a rack to keep bread, bagels, muffins and croissants warm. The toasting slots have adjustable widths allowing the BISTRO Toaster to keep the toast in place. The toaster also features a slide out crumb tray for easy cleanup and a cord retainer to adjust or store the cable away. Available in 8 beautiful colors.
