Tfal toaster
Toaster is of good quality, nice appearance, desirable features.
Is way too large for small-medium size counter spaces. The toaster is slow, not fast as advertised. Toast lift feature is helpful at times.

Attractive look but does not toast evenly
I purchased this toaster based on recent positive reviews but unfortunately I ended up returning it due to poor performance. While I liked the unique design, I found that the toaster slots are not wide enough to accomodate certain brands of bread and that the toaster does not toast evenly. Increasing the heat setting only burns one side while leaving the other side relatively untoasted. On occasion, the toaster will shoot the toast into the air and onto the floor. While definitely a crowd pleaser for kids, you may risk wasting a lot of bread.
While this toaster has an extra set of levers (in the middle of the front panel) to push up small pieces of bread, there may be an initial learning curve for this toaster, especially for those that are used to the classic toaster design.
The bagel feature works well and doesn't overly burn or unevenly toast one side more than the other. Like other reviewers have mentioned, this toaster is wide so ample counter space is necessary.

T-Fal toaster
This toaster is HUGE! Be prepared to make lots of room on your counter. However, it is worth it. We tried several others. Never knew a toaster could be such a complicated purchase. This one is simple to use. Love the lifters and the english muffins actually get toasted perfectly (crispy) on the first try. Had to toast them twice on the highest setting to get them crispy with our old toaster. The cuisinart we tried from Costco made stripes on the toast ranging from untoasted to brown to burnt, even on the low setting.
