What does that bagel button do?

I think it makes the toaster cook longer. It doesn't move anything in the area where the toast goes.

I don't know but I do know this is a faulty product and the ON button can stick at ON, possibly causing a fire unless you just happen to be standing right there and spot the emergency.

It works nicely. My mother love hers and uses it almost everyday. Her favorite thing...bagels.

Actually entirely in user control. Light button is handy when you wish to visually check that you don't overcook/bake; then, as you prefer, click light off. Simple smooth to use, cleanup a cinch; how products should be designed.

Yes. It is the little black button you see on the left side in the picture.

The bagel function doesn't work that well. Seems to toast the outside of the bagel, not the inside. I just use regular toast feature for all.

Yes, there is a Bagel setting and the slots are wide enough for half a bagel.

Yes, they light up blue when the selection (bagel, defrost, etc.) button is pushed.

It's the 2 left hand slots on the toaster. Basically, they are wider to fit a bagel so it does not get stuck. You can use this in lieu of a toaster over. Works pretty well.

I'm pretty sure the bagel function just adds additional time since the bagel is thicker and a bit moister than a regular piece of bread and it takes longer to get it to the desired toastyness. So if you pick level 4 for the darkness, but don't use the bagel feature, your bagel won't get as brown as a normal piece of toast would at the same setting.

I think it has to do with the limited functionality. This toaster has only three settings - you can simply toast, for one, and there are buttons for reheating and defrosting. However, there is no bagel setting or other extras. At least, that would be my guess. Hope that helps!

bagle side does not work as normal toaster. I think it just ups the time . ron

Haven't tried bagel function. Does not toast bread as well as I would like, edges sometimes burn.

Sorry, I only use it for toast. I had trouble finding a good toaster, and this is great. I had to read the instructions, I don't use the bagel setting, it toasts fine on the toast settings, but the dials tend to move, so I always check them. So check your settings, top and bottom should come on for toast.

They do not "spring up". There is an extra "lift" as other toasters have also. The Bagel button " browns the inside only"and is perfect for our bagel or roll sandwiches. I love the "retro" look!

yes but it toasts the inside more than the outside, that is what the bagel option is for. Regular toast works fine. We are quite pleased with this unit.

It does toast the bagel as you desire cause it has a heat control so it depends on how toast or warm you want your bread! I have no complains on how toast the bread comes out!
