Works great, it's HUGE.
I really wanted the cuisinart (who am I kidding I wanted the Dualit), saw the cuisinart in person, rounded at the top made it seem smaller, but the reviews really weren't very good, so I went with this one. It does a very good job toasting. First toaster, one side did not work out of the box, return went smoothly and the second one is fine. Really can't complain except for the size factor, you might take that into consideration if you leave it out on the counter or have minimal counter space.

Do Not Buy
Had high expectations because I own other KitchenAid products, which are excellent. I sent first toaster back to KitchenAid because it never really toasted well and one side stopped working within a few months.

It took KitchenAid about 8 weeks to send me a replacement, and it was worse. Takse almost 5 minutes (!) to toast and, even on highest setting, whole grain bread never toasts past very light tan. While the company is sending me a refund, we're been without decent toast for 6 months.

review - KitchenAir KMTT40000B

Love the toaster. Only (minor) complaint would be that the toaster slots could be larger. Long slices of bread do not fit in (go down) all of the way.

Finally, a toaster that works!
After a succession of failed $50 toasters (Cuisinart, Black & Decker, Hamilton Beach, etc.) it is finally satisfying to own a toaster that works. Once you get past the $100 sticker-shock, you'll realize that cheaper toasters that poop-out after only a few months of use are no bargain. This KitchenAid toaster is solidly built, works great and is worth the money.

Looks great, works poorly
This toaster is beautiful... but after owning it for less than a week (using it three times) the left side is no longer functional. The knob felt loose when we received it, and it now looks to be broken inside. It's impossible to lock down the toast slots for heating. The right side toasts reasonably well at the highest settings, but it generally doesn't seem very powerful. Despite its looks, and the overall sturdy feel of the toaster, the knobs and dials seem very cheap and lightweight. Sadly, we are returning it for a refund. Update: We have since purchased a Breville 4 slice (two long slots) toaster, which had been the other model we were considering. It works very well. Not as aesthetically pleasing as this Kitchenaid, but solidly built and powerful even toasting.
