Here Are The Top 10 Best Long-slot Toasters As Of September, 2019

The Magimix Vision attracts attention through its dual-layer glass windows -- but for consumers, its heavy construction is also apparently a very welcome addition to its long-slot form, as this makes sure that it doesn't slide around during use. For reference, it weighs 9.5lbs, which is more than double the average across all the toasters we have here in AlphaChooser as of this writing.

Reading through some more of its 159 total reviews, it's clear that most people agree that it has the capacity to produce evenly-toasted bread with every use -- as one Amazon reviewer reported, it makes ((Q))perfect toast everytime((Q)) .

Aside from appearing well-made, the Vision's body has also been a breeze to clean for users. For most of them, this toaster also offers adequate controls that are easy to operate.

Looking at the flip side, a number of people noticed that this model takes a bit longer to toast than what they're used to -- this, in spite of its respectable 725 watts/slice rating. If this is a deal-breaker for you, you might wanna go over our best fast toasters list. Lastly, majority of its negative reviews seem to be comprised by those who received defective units -- which, at least, can be remedied by the warranty.

The 4-star Magimix Vision seems to be a safe choice for people whose priority is top-quality toast, and its other features just sealed the deal for it to be named as Alphachooser's best long slot toaster 2019 (Learn how we rank items), with a confidence level of 98 (More on confidence levels).

The 4-star long-slot Dash View's most unique feature is undeniably its transparent sides. Being able to monitor the browning progress of toast has certainly been enjoyed by its customers (see the list of the best clear toasters on AlphaChooser here), but this model also has other noteworthy characteristics.

Praised by many people for its design, this transparent long slot toaster apparently also does the job ((Q))relatively-fast((Q)) -- even for frozen bread . Its wide opening has been a major pro for buyers who enjoy artisanal and homemade toast. According to a number of its 806 reviews, only the area near the slot gets hot during operation -- which makes it easy to adjust and move even while a toasting cycle is in progress. Its design has also been a pleasure for people with narrow countertops, as it doesn't take up too much space.

On the other hand, it does come with a flaw that cannot be ignored. Many people have knocked off a star from an otherwise-perfect rating due to the 2-slice Dash View's tendency to fling toast into the air. Apparently, this transparent toaster's spring mechanism is a bit too violent -- which led to experiences involving toasted bread flying right smack onto the kitchen floor, so some users decided to ((Q))baby sit their toast((Q)) while others put a plate on the top. Also, due to having to make way for the clear window, the toasting result is also usually slightly-uneven -- not extremely disproportionate, but still a possible source of frustration for the highly-particular user.

However, reading how the Dash View has been a dependable toaster for many of its customers, we're not surprised how it ended up as Alphachooser's second best long slot toaster 2019 in this list of the top 10 items.

Though there are the inevitable lesser reviews (almost inherent to any toaster that has had in excess of 1286 reviews), including a few cases of ((Q))stopped working after X months((Q)) in a world where we have yet to find appliances that do not yield a few occasional lemons -- covered by the warranty anyway, the Breville BTA830XL long-slot toaster still remained under 13% 1-star reviews while sporting an enviable 66% 5-star reviews last time we looked at its Amazon reviews. There was also one user that complained it toasted too much, but that's something we, the power-hungry folks at AlphaChooser, consider a pro, not a con, so much so that we also maintain -- by the way -- a list of the best fast toasters [yyy] . However, its 1600-watt rating, resulting in 400 watts per slice, is just average.

Incidently, the slots are about 10-inch long (based on our rather-accurate visual estimate -- using a rule over a side picture and deriving it from Breville's overall length specs), which should definitely be able to swallow a good longitudinal slice of that French baguette you wanna put in it, and for sure that Arnold Jewish rye bread -- Did we tell you how much we hate not being able to fit Jewish rye bread in a toaster? On the bonus side, this model has top-mounted controls and a motorized lowering system (no lever).

The many 5-star ratings we saw were not very detailed, but hovered around praise and love for its sleek look, the ((Q))a bit more((Q)) function, and the toasts, of course. It seems to concur with our system's conclusion, which decided to rank it an Alphachooser good choice.

The KitchenAid KMT4116 long-slot toaster seems to have swept a majority of its users off their feet. With a 4 stars-star rating from the 9066 reviews that our system has scoured, there's little doubt as to how it landed a spot on our top 10 list.

Most reviewers took delight in this model's toasting ability, with a number of verified buyers raving about its ability to achieve even browning across the entire width of their bread slices. We all know how much of a plague the combination of burnt edges and a soggy center is (or the other way around). Additionally, the efficiency with which this toaster's heating elements work has earned it praises for how fast it can get the job done.

Other commonly-mentioned good points include how nicely-varied its browning settings are -- thus avoiding the ((Q))2 is bread, but 3 is charcoal((Q)) dilemma. Appreciation is bountiful for the Keep Warm button and high-lift lever, as well -- on top of the more obvious asset that is its sleek-looking exterior.

On the other side of the coin, some customers have knocked a star off their given ratings due to the ((Q))loud and annoying((Q)) sound that goes off to indicate that the toasting process has finished. It appears that the KMT4116 is noisier than your average toaster, but others appreciate this quirk -- especially during busy and frantic mornings.

The reviews point to this model as a toaster of many virtues, but with quirks that may or may not turn off a consumer based on personal preferences .

The 3.5-star TRL9300BKR from Russell Hobbs has so far gotten 188 reviews. According to most of these feedbacks, this 600 watt/slice long-slot fast toaster handles frozen bread nicely and toasts generally well. It also appears like it banks a great deal on its looks, as its attractive stainless steel design and narrow body (which should make it fitting for smaller countertops) has been the talk of the town .

Its warming rack seems to be a highly-appreciated feature, as well as the ((Q))easy to clean((Q)) crumb tray. The Lift and Look option has unsurprisingly earned it many fans, too -- although note that this is a common feature among the that we have on file here on AlphaChooser.

While bagel fans report that this model has been a breeze to use, it seems to run into a bit of trouble when toasting lighter bread (such as English muffins) -- often requiring another run to obtain the desired browning level -- By the way, if you are as performance obsessed as we are, you should really check our best fast toaster list. Whether it toasts bread evenly is up for debate, too. Some people have raved about its ability to produce evenly-browned bread every single time, but others have reported experiencing being left with bread that has burnt edges and a not-toasted-enough middle. With this, we're left with the conclusion that it may not be the most versatile of the bunch -- meaning, it can handle many specific types of bread well, but it can also mess up other kinds. Some have also pointed out that it resets to the default browning setting after every use, so take note if that's a potential annoyance for you. Overall, though, the number of people who are not very satisfied with the TRL9300BKR constitute a small portion of its consumer reviews.

Due to the noticeably-larger amount of people pleased with this long-slot toaster, our system has placed it into the spot of an Alphachooser good choice in this top 10 list.

The Electric is a high-priced toaster (with a bun warmer) that owes its modern design to Stefano Giovannoni.

The TSF02BLUS long slot toaster from Smeg is a sight to behold with its retro design and apparently-solid build quality. The device has been an eye candy for many buyers, some of whom admit to purchasing it mainly for its looks . Looking at the more functional side, its ((Q))sturdy-feeling((Q)) body makes sure that the toaster doesn't slide around the countertop. According to many of the 16 reviews for this 4-star model, it's literally a big toaster with a large footprint -- so if you have limited kitchen space, beware.

While the fact that it has stay-cool exteriors is certainly a plus, an unmissable complaint that we have encountered while reading customer feedback revolves around its spring mechanism. Apparently, toasts get ejected after a cycle with such force that they become susceptible to landing on the floor (which, by the way, is a booboo that you can completely avoid by opting for motorized leverless toasters). At 350 watts/slice, it's not entirely shocking for us to see complaints about its slower-than-ideal toasting speed. Also, some have reported experiencing unevenly-toasted bread, but most reviewers praise it for producing consistently-browned goods. Lastly, this model's defrost option has also been mentioned many times for its reliability and performance.

After the AlphaChooser review aggregator has scanned through 9066 reviews for all long-slot toasters, this Smeg model came out as an Alphachooser interesting choice in this top 10 ranking -- unsurprising, seeing how it has impressed dozens of people with its looks and performance.
