Zwilling Enfinigy 4-Slice Long Slot Toaster, Extra Wide 1.5" Slots, Black

After two years of toaster frustration, I've finally found a winner in the Zwilling Enfinigy Cool Touch Toaster. In the past two years alone, I've purchased a Black+Decker ($40) and a Cuisinart ($80), both of which promised even toasting. Both failed miserably. The Black+Decker was a complete hit-or-miss, burning one side while leaving the other pale. The Cuisinart, while slightly better, was still inconsistent, and definitely not worth the doubled price tag. I was ready to give up on the perfect slice of toast. Then, I decided to take a chance on the Zwilling Enfinigy. I was hesitant given the price point, but the reviews were promising, and I was desperate. And let me tell you, it delivered! The Zwilling toasts perfectly, every single time. I've used it for everything from thin slices of sourdough to thick bagels, and the results are consistently golden brown and evenly toasted. No more burnt edges or soggy middles! What I particularly appreciate is the simplicity of the design. The single knob adjustment makes it incredibly easy to dial in the perfect level of toastiness. No complicated settings or confusing buttons. Just a simple, reliable toaster that does its job exceptionally well. Pros: Even and consistent toasting. Simple, intuitive one-knob operation. Cool-touch exterior (a nice safety feature). Sleek, modern design. Cons: A bit pricier than other toasters. If you're tired of toasters that underperform, I highly recommend the Zwilling Enfinigy. It's an investment, but it's worth it for the consistently perfect toast. I'm finally enjoying my morning toast again!

Love this toaster. High quality lasting piece. I had the stainless steel one for years and decided I wanted black so I didn’t have to hide it away in a cabinet. This one sits out on my counter and looks good rather than like another crappy appliance. And bonus, it is much lighter than the stainless steel one so if I decide at any time to move it back to a cabinet it will be easier to manage.

Pros: (1) Toasts ok...not perfect but still "ok"...meets minimum expectations; (2) Crumb tray in front makes toaster easy to clean; (3) Wife thinks "it looks nice"; I agree. Cons: (1) Cost too high given the cons which follow; (2) Warranty application on-line is WAY too much to complete without a PhD in something (which I obviously don't have..."Patience", perhaps :-); (3) Toaster has a low, distracting "buzz" sound when operating; (4) Power cord wrap design on bottom of toaster is downright stupid (only 1 way around; not in the direction which would work best for us given what ends up at the back of the toaster); (5) Bagel/Defrost/Warm-up Buttons...at least on Black model..."camouflaged" in black print matching black buttons making them virtually impossible to read. Text should be readable without having to use a flashlight (which still presents a challenge); (6) Bagel/Defrost/Warm-up Buttons must be counterintuitively activated only after (not before) the bread is toasting; (7) The toaster's "Push Down Handle" is flimsy and feels like it will need continuing TLC; (8) Heat settings on control knob need to me made easier to read (more contrast and a bit larger print...they are readable, unlike the other control buttons, but could definitely be improved); (9) User Manual is "ok" but thin/low contrast type makes it hard to read without a good light...needs a "Font Transplant". In sum: I guess I'd have to say that I'm pretty disappointed given the price being asked. My best advice would NOT be to not purchase it but rather to understand what you're getting for the price that you're paying and to do your "homework" before making a final purchase decision. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of "Long, Wide-slot" toasters out there to be looking at and none of them are "perfect" so it's really more a matter of compromise than what I would want to have to be contending with. These folks have been in business, literally, for centuries and that alone makes things even more disappointing.

I was disappointed with the position of the controls. I replaced a KitchenAid with this. The KitchenAid had the control knob and a LED readout positioned on the FRONT of the toaster making adjustments VERY easy and quick. This Zwilling has the control knob improperly placed on the end of the toaster near the bottom with almost impossible to read numders on it and no LED read out. So far it toasted OK (it should for the price) but if I had known what how inefficient the controls would be I would have thought twice. If easy visual and manual access to the control (right side) end of the toaster is limited for you I would recommend a different toaster. Update: my wife said "Just turn it around - duh!" And that gave better access to the control but is still very hard to see and use.

It just does what it is supposed to do. Every toaster we have had toasted the top of the bread dark and left the bottom pale. Toast or bagels, this one does an even job all over. I doubt that I will ever put anything frozen in it, but there's a button for that too. I like the mirrored crumb tray, whoever though of that was a genius, it really improves visibility. It has a nice professional appearance also, kind of like an Apple charger had a growing spurt. Well worth the money if it holds up, and I see no reason to expect otherwise.

I bought this toaster to replace a Cuisinart that toasts very unevenly. I figured since we use a toaster daily, I was OK with spending the money (over $200 with tax) if it would eliminate the rotating of the bread I find I have to do with the current one. After testing it for a few days and comparing it "head to head" with the Cuisinart, I returned the Zwilling. It is SLOW. The coils seem to barely get red. I timed it on the max setting of 7 and it took 4:30 to pop up. I am OK with the waiting if it would have been a nice even result, but the bread came out barely toasted! In the same amount of time, I was able to get the bread in the Cuisinart (currently selling for $65) to fully toast despite having to rotate it halfway through. I would have had to wait another 3-4 min to put it through another cycle. It does look and feel nice but, for that amount of money, I want it to work better!

I approached this rather expensive toaster with some hesitation. I'd had a Hamilton Beach for a decade that gradually failed to toast one side adequately, and then one day quit altogether, unless I was willing to hold the handle down through the entire toasting process. I read hundreds of reviews of other toasters, and so many shared my big complaint: One side browns, the other doesn't. Or, if you like your toast toasted, one side toasted and the other burnt. Ugh. I figured that if it took some more coin to find a toaster that consistently browned both sides as the setting indicated, it was cheaper over the long run that experimenting with a bunch of $20 disappointments. And in the comments I'd found online about this one, it toasts both sides about the same. Amazon had the best price, and Amazon always makes shopping easy. So, I plunked down the dough and went for it. And it's been soooo satisfying! My toast is beautifully, evenly browned with no burnt edges, no squishy places, just terrifically reliable toasting. It works great for English muffins too. It gives great chewy with crunch there. The toaster itself is beautiful. Understated, it blends in and compliments the rest of the kitchen like a nice piece of jewelry with a LBD. It's easy to clean, and the drawer type crumb tray doesn't flop open and deposit your crumbs across the counter or floor like the hinged types. It doesn't make that loud heart attack pop noise when the toast is up, so you need to glance at it occasionally while making the rest of your breakfast. It keeps your toast well until you're ready to grab it. The extra long cord is a nice feature, too; sometimes, counter space is iffy; and some toasters offer cords so short it's difficult to get them out from under upper cabinets. This one offers lots of range for movement. It's solid and distinctively beautiful. And long after I've forgotten what I paid for something, I live with how well it works in my life. Do I love it? Does it work for me? Does it make my life a little easier, a little better? Yep. It's just a toaster. But it does the job with real excellence.

I researched many toaster brands, from the low to high-end. I had a new KitchenAid toaster that was returned because while it looked great with our matching appliances, it didn't fit bread slices that were larger than the standard white Wonderbread. Our friends have Wolf toaster and said it's just "ok." Anyway, I gave this Zwilling a try for these reasons: 1) length - yes, while it's a larger size toaster it fits many various lengths of bread 2) width - fits bagels or larger hunks of specialty breads (olive) that one would cut themselves 3) matte black - no fingerprints and easily matches most kitchen decor/colors 4) owned by Henkel (didn't know this until I started researching this brand) when reading various "toaster" review articles and blogs 5) a good amount of options for toasting - number dial, reheat, bagel 6) reviews! So far this Zwilling has churned out the perfect toast, bagels and english muffins perfectly. It's super easy to clean the crumbs out with the removable tray. I tried many other toasters, and this is so far worth the money.

One of the best toasters out there. The unit is taller than other brands. We use Cobbs thick sliced frozen white bread and the number 7 (the last one) toasts it perfectly. Even browning on both sides. Pop open removable crumb tray. The flaw in it is on the top. There is a gap/ridge where crumbs get stuck. You have to turn the toaster upside down if you’re picky about it. I did it once then left it as it’s not a lot in there and not a big issue. Worth money. I got an Amazon courtesy discount when I purchased otherwise I may have thought twice about it because of the price but it is a very good toaster.

En plus d'être esthétiquement beau, il fonctionne très bien

Arrived first thing in the morning in time for breakfast. Nice looking toaster that seems quite solid in construction. Probably the best looking toaster out of the many I have purchased. It seems to be a never ending quest for the perfect machine. This one toasts bread on one side darker than the other side. The toast in the picture is Vienna Sourdough bread, a tad thicker than store bought sliced bread. You may like the option of a lighter or darker side? 🤔

Grille-pain défectueux après seulement un an d’utilisation, ce qui est très décevant pour un produit à ce prix. Le service client de Zwilling s’est en plus montré extrêmement lent et peu aidant dans la prise en charge du problème. Je dois payer pour retourner le produit. Une expérience globale très frustrante, je ne recommande pas.

Pros: 1. 4 slices all at once. 2. Cool touch all around when in use. This is a safety issue for us as we have boxes and items around it and the toaster does get pushed against the wall by the kids. 3. Dial is easy to use. Number 4 gets a dark toast. Number 3 gets a light toast. Number 1 is just warming up cold bread. 4. Bagel feature is great. Toasts the inside of the bagel only. 5. Crumb tray is easy to clean. You do need to unplug to clean it well once in a while. Cons: 1. Pricier. It is just a toaster and overpriced compared to competing models. 2. It toasts unevenly. So there are heat elements that don't light up all the way and some area of the toast aren't toasted. 3. Has no overhead wire to toast items like croissants on the top of the toaster. Our cheaper toaster had this feature and we miss it. So overall, we do like the toaster a lot. It is reliable just overpriced.
