Uneven toasting

We are renovating our kitchen and I wanted to get rid of my ugly white toaster and get a retro toaster. After trying many toasters, I decided on this one. I love how it looks on my countertop. Although the kitchen is not ready yet. It's a lot easier than I expected, but it's not a problem. But as you can see, it doesn't tan evenly. All the bread was toasted at level 4. I'm showing both sides, the first two were just how we like them. I made two more just to see if it would fit. The second two came out much easier than the first two. I hope it gets better after using it a little more. As I like the look of the toaster my husband even said it looks good and he never pays attention to such things. I'll try to give an update when I use it longer. To update. This is a guessing game to see what color toast you will get. I've been using this toaster for over 2 weeks on the same #3 setting. Every time it comes out it's a different shade. Good thing we all like different toasts. I take the darker ones, my husband likes it a little lighter and my granddaughter likes hers very light ones. From time to time he comes out almost burnt. It became like a little game with my granddaughter: who can guess the next color? On my counter, on the other hand, it looks great ๐Ÿ˜‰

Pros
  • PROFESSIONAL FEATURES: The toaster has a bagel function: toast only one side of a sliced bagel while heating the other side. Defrosting is ideal for toasting frozen breakfast items such as waffles. In keep-warm mode, the bread is heated for an additional 30 seconds.
Cons
  • No form required
