Solidly built toaster at last!
I really love that this toaster toasts well, and is built well, unlike the two others I returned that were too plastic and lightweight. This is one tall and deep and perfect for thicker bread and bagels. I thought I wanted a white toaster but I actually like this black and stainless steel one …it looks really nice.

Works Well
I have been using this for several months now and I like it. I have found my perfect temp so the bread does not burn. Only one thing I dislike is that it dries out the bread a lot on the upper settings making it hard.

Simple, good toaster
This toaster is perfect for me. I make all of our bread and the loaves tend to be large and tall. This toaster accommodates large tall slices of bread and it toasts evenly. It toasts the bread quickly. It's easy to operate and does everything I want a toaster to do. I got a refund on the first one I ordered it becaue the first one didn't work. This replacement one works great.

One of the better performers, if you like the "big box" look
The main issue with the modern toaster is achieving even toasting. Believe what you read in the reviews: most toasters struggle to provide even toasting, usually resulting in scorching one side and barely browning the other at regular settings. We recently thought to replace our 22 year-old Cuisinart 2-slice toaster that has worked perfectly and has always produced evenly-browned toast. The Cuisinart has that classic, chrome toaster design (think 1950's) with solid controls but we thought a more modern, brushed stainless toaster would look nicer with our other newer appliances. We first tried out the latest 2-slice Cuisinart toaster (CPT-160). It looks nice but feels cheap with its loose temperature knob and wobbly toast lever. Worse, it can't produce a uniform piece of toast to save its life, unless you prefer to have only one side of your toast done the way you want it.Looking through all the reviews of major brand toasters, uneven toasting is the most common complaint. So, what is it about the modern toaster that makes its primary function so difficult to achieve? The problem with most modern toasters is this: In order to design lighter-weight, lower-cost toasters, the bread slots have been made narrower, placing the heating elements closer to the toast. Perhaps this is an attempt to speed up the toasting process for impatient consumers but it has unpredictable results. Case in point: the distance between heating elements on our 22 year-old Cuisinart CPT-70 toaster is 2.5-inches per slot and it produces perfect toast every time with any kind of bread. The new Cuisinart (similar in low-cost design as most modern toasters) has a reduced 2.1-inch spacing and cannot produce even toasting on both sides of the bread. The whole concept of toasting is for radiant heat (as opposed to direct contact) to brown the surface of the bread. If the radiating elements are too close to the toast, the heating is more intense and the browning process is unpredictable. Compared to classic toasters from decades ago, this "new, improved" reduced spacing is why modern toasters struggle to perform their simple job. The problem is aggravated by breads of different types and moisture content --which is why the "gentler" toasting provided by wider heating element spacing is more successful.So what about the Calphalon toaster? Well, it has wider heating element spacing similar to our old Cuisinart and does produce more evenly-toasted bread than other modern toasters. In addition, the controls on the Calphalon have a good quality feel. The temperature control has a unique design and a countdown timer. However, the Calphalon also has slightly deeper toasting slots than most toasters and this results in the toaster being over 8-inches tall, at least an inch taller than other toasters. Its boxy, rectangular design looks more massive than its dimensions would suggest. The darker grey color only emphasizes its large size. Unfortunately, this massive "box" did not look good in our smaller kitchen. If you have a larger kitchen with plenty of counter space, the Calphalon should look fine and will likely provide you the best toasting performance among competitors.The Calphalon is about $20 more expensive than similar mainstream toasters but it is worth it for good toasting performance and I recommend it highly above competitive toasters. In the end, the Calphalon was too big for our liking so we're sticking with our 22 year-old Cuisinart which is simply better at producing consistent toast than most modern toasters, including even the latest from Cuisinart.
Inconsistent toasting at same level.
This toaster is BLACK not Dark Gray as advertised.We only used the toaster for a week. With 5 people in the family we gave it a fair try. First time we tried toast we used the 3rd position on the dial. The toast came out burnt. We tried each of the first 3 settings on the dial. Never found one that worked consistently. We tried it on 2, one day and it undercooked the toast. The next day at the same #2 setting it burnt the toast. That was the last straw. Also as others have stated, it takes quite a bit longer to toast (of course if you're going to burn toast at every setting it has to be in there for a while). The countdown feature of LED lights is neat but clearly it doesn't mean anything. I'm sending it back.
