Will it toast both sides? (one reviewer said no, another yes)

my toaster once toasted both sides but now it does not. It's a cheap toaster so don't expect much from this thing

Yes it will unless you push "Bagel" in which case it only toasts the inside half.

The outside of each slice toasts better than the inside. It doesn't toast evenly. As my toaster broke down afterabout 14 months of usage by only two people on a regular basis, I would not recommend this product.

Both sides always activate but I've used it for a single slice with no problem.

No, it toast on both sides, but it has been my experience that the inside coils gets hotter than the outside coils. I always put a bagel or English muffin with the cut sides facing the middle and they come out great. I am very pleased with toast that is a little darker on one side and I find that between 3 and 4 on the setting makes great toast, and if you use the bagel button , they come out perfect.

No it doesn't. In the instruction pamphlet it states that if you are toasting a single slice you may notice vriations in bread color from side to side.

Bagel function toasts only One(1)side of the bagel - presumably you will toast the inside - cut part. This is the left hand side as labeled. I measured the slots - they weren't measurably wider. Me? I never use it. I like both sides toasted.

there is just one lever to push down the bread, hence both slots will drop and heat. So both sides will be used. I am pretty sure.It is a nice toaster though. I have been thru many.

No! This is the worst toaster I ever had! I just got mine this year and sadly I constantly have to flip and turn the toast!

Yes, but the top has a very even toasted look while the bottom has toasted lines. Still a good toasting on both sides. That was the problem with our old one, we had to manually flip the bread.

Yes - this toaster toasts both sides, and fairly evenly. The bigger unit with room for 4 pieces is good too!

No, plus, it only cooks bagles on one side. When I purchased it I thought it did it on both sides. I had to return my first one because one side didn't work right, no matter how it was adjusted, it would not work right. They are sending me a new one to replace it.

Oh yes, the far right button stops the progress. However, I was interested in the person who toasts on three... I always toast on one and get nice light toast, two would be fairly dark... and three.... can't imagine how dark that would be...

Yes, I've toasted a single slice, a half bagel, etc. It's the best overall toaster I've ever owned. :)

Yes it can, both gates close and drop but you can toast one piece at a time.

I have this toaster oven and have used it to toast numerous times and both sides get toasted. I just put it right on the rack and not on a pan - not sure if that makes a difference.

No, one lever that does both sides at once. But this has been an excellent toaster, especially for the price.

If you put just one slice both slots on that side will heat up, but it works fine. I never had a problem.

Yes, it toasts evenly. Plus I will add that the customer service provided by Breville is fantastic. I know this because less than a month after our new toaster arrived, it broke. We are awaiting our replacement, which was shipped the day after contacting Breville about the problem.
