Wolf Gourmet 2-Slice Extra-Wide Slot Toaster with Shade Selector, Bagel and Defrost Settings, Silver Knob with Black Knob Accessory, Stainless Steel (WGTR122SR)

About 40 years ago we had a toaster (don't recall the brand) that was great, but after lots of use it finally gave up the ghost. Since then, every toaster we've had just hasn't been as good. The toaster we were using right before this one was particularly horrid. If you wanted toast, you either got warm bread or burnt bread, but never a nice slice of toast. It was something we just had to put up with. Then, during this year's Prime Days I was doing a *lot* of shopping/buying on Amazon. I wasn't even looking for a toaster, but somehow this one ended up in my "suggested" area. Although we don't have a Wolf stove/oven, I know they are excellent, and the price on the Wolf toaster was acceptable to me, so I thought, "what the heck, I might as well." This toaster is AWESOME. The sourdough bread comes out perfectly toasted. And my husband likes to toast an uncut bagel, which this toaster can handle perfectly. I am so, so happy that I purchased this!

Over the past 15 years I have had a number of Dualit toasters. I still like their design (aluminum exterior shows no fingerprints, manual toast elevator is great for "catapulting" out small items, visible timer makes it easy to determine if the remaining cooking time is sufficient or excessive), but they tend to break and while parts are available for the home repairman, it is still a pain. I have not had a Wolf toaster nearly as long (4 months), so I have no idea about reliability. However, I can say that the quality of the toast is better than any Dualit I have ever had, and I have had plenty. The very wide slots make it easy to fish out smaller items (no "catapulting" necessary) and are large enough to accommodate hamburger buns ("bagel" feature makes it possible to toast only the inside of the bun halves). The only minor negative is that care has to be used when inserting very very thin items, as they might slip through the bottom support of the toaster slot before being secured by the self-centering slot walls when lowering the bread to be toasted. Otherwise, it is great so far.

Again, you get what you pay for. At 225, this is the most expensive toaster I have ever bought, by far. Having said that, it will probably last a lifetime, its made that well. I love the keep warm function. If you press that button, it will keep your toast down, and warm, for another 3 minutes while you get your coffee ready. It also centers your toast, so that both side toast equally. Cheap toasters push your bread off to one side. It also toasts slowly, so your bread, bagel, etc. gets warm. No matter what setting you have it on, it takes 3 minutes, just applies more or less heat. Its high quality and I love it.

Nice quality and easy light weight operation. Good browning range. Love the beep when done feature. Very happy consumer! Expensive but you get what you pay for. No complaints, but some observations - smaller slices will not rise enough to protrude from top to grab when done. Need to use a set of wooden tongs to help out. As toaster gets hotter than those rinky brands you need to wait a little bit longer for it to cool down before you can put away. Performs as expected no issues out of box. A lot smaller than the family 4 slices version but lot more convenient to stow away in your kitchen cabinet. Recommend wolf brand. I also have the kettle which is equally awesome. Buy and enjoy!

This is supposed to be the rolls Royce of toasters. The price certainly calls for it. Good craftsmanship, in general. Looks nice too. Two negatives: - the loud beeping upon completion cannot be turned off. If you are trying to be quiet, this sure is annoying. -the single slice feature is a fraud. Makes no difference. In fact, both slots light up the same regardless. I called the company and the rep said the following (after a snicker): “we asked our engineers and they couldn’t explain it to us”.

I have been very happy with this purchase. I use it every day and am satisfied with the toasting results. Unlike my previous toasters, this one is well-made & easy to clean. Most of all, I love the way it looks!

There are so many poorly designed toasters on the market, even from respectable brands. We tried several but none compared in design, durability and performance to this model. Regardless of whether you get the 2-slice or 4-slice model, you will be getting the best toaster on the market. Wolf is a premium brand so this is an expensive product, but this a real case of you get what you pay for. We are thrilled with it. Handles bagels and one slice loads perfectly. Adjusts for frozen items. Solid construction. Heats consistently. Excellent controls. Get one!

This toaster rocks! Not only does it toast evenly *every time* but looks beautiful on the countertop. Excellent design and very sturdy. A must have especially if your kitchen is already outfitted with Wolf appliances! 😎 This is our second Wolf gourmet purchase after first buying the electric water kettle and we love them both.

Love the look and stance of this toaster. The bottom tray is well designed and the slots are extra wide. When you use the controls, the quality is apparent. And then there is the iconic red knob…well worth the price and a definitive must for those who collect wolves.

All of our appliances are Wolf brand - so it only seemed natural to get the toaster as well. My wife loves it!!

Got lots of people to pitch in for it

Parfait et très beau!

Perfect
