 Great Toaster . . . Great ValueMay 02, 2009
By Stansplace2

Finally ... a toaster that does the job at a great price. Toasting is excellent - even on both sides. The cancel feature makes it very easy to stop action. And the lever for removing "difficult" pieces (raise lever up to push toasted item above the top of the toaster for easy removal - no more knives in the toaster) is a great feature and easy to use.
The only thing I found to be negative was that some very large bagels did not fit in the opening; could have been slightly larger. But overall, this toaster is an excellent bargain!
It replaced my previous Kitchen Aid ($100) and I couldn't be happier.

 My favorite toaster EVERJul 25, 2010
By TVG

The Proctor-Silex 22450 is not a fancy-looking product. If you need a fancy-looking designer toaster to impress somebody, get something else. But if you want a toaster that just does a great job for the money, this is a good choice. Its skin is insulating plastic and is very light in weight. You can just pick it up or slide back to put it away without ever burning your hand. This is a GREAT feature!
As with most toasters, you set the temp dial to the setting you want, pop your stuff in, and push down the load lever. With THIS toaster, if it is unplugged, your bread won't stay down. This is a super handy feature, because when someone unplugs your toaster to charge a cell phone or run the crock pot, you could be sitting there awhile before you notice.
Once you get it going, a red light comes on to tell you it's cooking. That red light doubles as an eject button to get your bread/poptart/muffin back right now, should you become impatient or realize your spouse has turned the heat way up to toast something else.
As one other reviewer has pointed out, this machine does not pop up your toast very much; the secret to getting your toast back is to just slide the load lever up. At first I wondered, why doesn't this thing just push the bread up higher, like every normal toaster? But now I realize why -- it keeps your toast snug in there until you get to it, instead of outside, where it can cool off. I really appreciate this feature now.
Having said that, here are the improvements I'd like:
1) Slightly wider slots, to handle bagels easier
2) Make the crumb catcher a little better -- this one drops a crumb or two sometimes
3) Replace the rotary temp adjustment dial with a vertical slider for an instantly readable indication of the temp setting
All in all, though, the best feature is that white plastic case. It just doesn't get hot. This is a terrific value for the money. We've gotten our money's worth several times out of ours, and it still works great. If something happened to this one now, I'd take another one.

I still love this damn toaster.

 A bit of a disappointmentApr 11, 2011
By Lansing Miller
This toaster has been a disappointment. It has received an excellent rating from several sources, but has failed in performance in a couple ways. First, if the bread being toasted is not a large, full-size slice, it is likely to catch on an overhanging lip in the toast slot. This is inconvenient, as it requires fishing into the slot to get the toast out from under the lip. Second, it requires turning the toast over after the first toasting cycle to get an even browning on both sides. When I purchased this unit I expected it to produce toast evenly browned on both sides after one cycle. It hasn't happened.

Yummy ToastSep 26, 2010
By margkel

There is nothing more than I enjoy than a cup of coffe or tea with some toast with butter. I have just come home from purchasing this toaster, made a fresh pot of coffee, toasted some wheat bread...I am a happy woman right now. The toast was perfect on level 3, stayed warm while I prepared my cup of coffee, used the lever to pop out the toast, still warm, spread some butter, can't get any better for the price of about $15. Sometimes it's the small things in life that make me happy!
