Does this toaster have the option of toasting just one slice?

One lever controls two slots and you can toast one slice, if you wish, but the empty slot will also heat up.

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

Yes you can toast just one slice, but the one side - which ever one you choose - will heat as if you were toasting two. Quite often we toast three slices instead of four.

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

Yes. We were disappointed in the performance of this high priced toaster and returned it.

Of course it is all one piece. The tabs under the handles are push down to release lock, then turn bottom part left or right for 8 or 16 slices. Then push tabs up to lock. Mine works great!

Yes, it will do one as perfectly as it does two! This toaster with the countdown feature is so convenient. You will really find it a quality piece of kitchen equipment, enjoy!

I purchased the 4 slice toaster and it is the best toaster I have ever owned. It toasts the bread more evenly than any toaster I ever used. You have to figure where the correct setting is and toast away. I hope this helps in your decision.

Yes it does. My husband used the toaster regularly but now he has switched over to the Panasonic. He says he can watch and decide the amount of toasting.

Yes, on rare occasion... BUT only the smaller, lightweight slices of bread. Everything else is fine. We LOVE this toaster. The bagel setting and lift lever make up for this minor flaw.

Not that I am aware, however it beeps when it is ready. If I forget to get the toast out I just put back on level one to reheat. Honestly, I love this toaster, well worth the money.

yes, using grill mode but it takes more time than toaster. Kinda like grill on an open fire...

Yes. You press the stop key. You can lift up the lever to release whatever you are toasting. Nice feature.

I don't eat a lot of toast and prefer my bagels untoasted. However, I've used this toaster several times, and don't recall there was any signal other than the toast popping up.

No is does not. This toaster broke after about 6 months and kitchen aid wouldn't replace it bc they wanted the ORIGINAL receipt (who keeps an original receipt for a toaster). I threw it away and bought a $15 toaster and am happy with it. I won't buy kitchen aid products anymore.

We have a 4 slice toaster, not a 2 slice but the four slice just pops up no other noise

No, it doesn't. But I find now that the toaster only toasts one side of the bread in each slot, and you have to pop the bread up and turn it to toast both sides. So, my advice? Don't buy this piece of junk.

I have the two slicer, not the four. I have never touched the front while toasting.

Yes, there is a cancel buttom BUT the PROBLEM with this toaster is that it only toasted the bread on ONE side because the heating coil was defective on BOTh outsides of the toaster. It was defective from the first and I didn't bother returning it because I needed the long slots for large bread slices which are hard to find and it is my fault for not returning it. I don't know if any other customers had this problem but it just one more product from China that is "10 Cents short of a dollar". And this item isn't cheap so the low quality is inexcusable for a supposedly-industrial quality product.
