Breville A Bit More 2 Slice Stainless Steel Toaster: 1000W, Silver, Compact Design, 1-Year Warranty

One side of the bread toasts and the other is pale. Support told me it was designed this was so you can butter the bread. ARG. The inner element doesn't even light up unless the setting is on bagel. If you want to babysit your toast and flip it, this is the model for you. After sending photos to support (including having to make a piece of toast to show this picture!), and a lot of being annoyed, support will send out a new one. I very much hope a new toaster resolves this issue.

I purchased this toaster approximately 2 years ago. I paid 3 times the price I normally pay for toasters. First time using, I could not retrieve the toast. It was sunk so low in the center that I had to hold it upside down to get it out. This creates a huge mess of crumbs everywhere. Did someone not test this design? It took me weeks to find an appropriate tong (small enough and not 100% metal) to retrieve my toast, without said mess. The footprint of this toaster is ginormous on my counter. If it’s going to claim so much real estate, it should provide excellent functionality. I regret the purchase. I would never recommend this toaster to anyone. Perhaps Breville should stick to blenders only!

I've been using this about twice a week since December 2024. For 3 months now and its not great. I use the number 3 setting. I have tried different combos adding the bit more option. I get uneven toast about half time.

Elegant and clean looking toaster with perfect performance. Easy to clean!

Worked fine for a few months no only toasts one side. Very disappointed given the price.

Bought this based off of recommendations from many different sources. It worked great for about a month, then the "doneness" became very touchy. It does fine from two to about 4 lights, but then after that the toast just goes straight to burnt. The slider doesn't correspond with the lights. So far the only thing I can use it for is for thawing bread out of the freezer or if I just want warm bread for a sandwich. Disappointing considering how much I paid for it. p.s. Also had to disable my ad-blocker to post the review. smh.

On day one it did not function, will only brown on one side and even that was poorly done.

Hello - I bought this toaster thinking it would last several years, but unfortunately it needs to be discarded. Within the first 6 months the lever knob for the browning broke. Now the lever to pull down and toast bread no longer stays down. It was highly recommended in several reviews but I think the design of this toaster using plastic is not meant to last long.

Earned the top rating of a major consumer reporting agency. Does all things well - easy to understand adjustments, provides a uniform result at every setting, even very dark toast on gluten free bread.

We bought the toaster about two months ago. We use it nearly everyday! We are very pleased with the toasted bread and bagels we get from it.

This toaster is great! The slots are wide enough to easily handle bagels and the “A Bit More” feature is especially helpful - I couldn’t be more pleased with this purchase!!

this toaster starts cooking bread from the outside edges in. the edges tend to be very dark or slightly burnt while the center is under toasted

I like the look of this toaster and ours worked fine for nearly 7 years but then it suddenly died without warning. We push the lever down and it pops up 2 seconds later regardless of the setting, or it fails to start warming altogether. I feel like 7 years use is too short for a toaster on the pricier end.

I researched toasters and purchased this one because of the recommendation on Good Housekeeping and Consumers Reports. I normally don't spend this much on a toaster but decided it must be worth it. After using it repeatedly, I'm very disappointed. It only toasts one side of the bread and I have to flip the bread to get the other side toasted. The bagel setting is NOT activated (the light is not on) Is there something I'm missing? I'm incredibly disappointed in this toaster.

I didn’t want to go around and around with a subpar product. Thought I was getting top of the line. I didn’t want to have to flip the bread half way through the process to get decent results. Not happening with this toaster. Are there any companies that can make a simple piece of toast? This site won’t let me post any photos either?

At this price, I would expect toast to be moderately even on both sides. Seems like I am expecting way too much. I don’t want to use the bagel setting and flip the bread halfway through

Toast both sides. Little pricey.

This is a replacement toaster. It still doesn't toast evenly on both sides. The inside elements don't turn as red as the outer elements.

So glad I finally got rid of my old toaster

This is my second Breville and I am a totally satisfied customer. It's a perfect toaster.
