Highlights: variable toasting with 6 time settings, automatic centering for even results, bagel function, reheat function, defrost function, stop function to manually end the toasting process, high-lift mechanism for easy removal of smaller slices of bread, bagels, or pastries, and a removable crumb tray for easy cleaning.
