Terrible Experience
I've purchased a KitchenAid Blender, Food Processor, Kettle, Toaster, Stand Mixer in the last 30 days and the experience with the Whirlpool (holding company of KitchenAid support) is absolutely horrendous.
They were closed and unavailable on the days I ordered the product I needed support on, then refused to assist when I needed assistance and support on the order, and now are paying lip service and being absolutely condescending in their replies.
The KitchenAid product is quality, but the support and after sale experience in absolutely unacceptable and has put me off the brand totally.

I love this toaster !
I bought this toaster 1 month ago. The Empire Red colour is fantastic and matches our kettle and microwave. We love the browning / duration setting. We get perfect toast every time - way better than our previous toaster. Crisp on both sides! There is even a crumpet setting which works well too. I love how the toaster gently supports the bread as it lowers for cooking. This ensures the bread never gets caught in the sides. It also beeps when ready. The blue control lighting is stylish and looks cool. Also the extra length of electric cord simply wraps under the base very neatly. High quality construction. Thanks Kitchenaid.

Good features, but does it toast properly?
We've had our KMT223 for a week and can't say we are wrapt in it.
The power-operated lowering of the toast impresses, along with the arms that grab the slice and hold it still, thus preventing blockages.
Not so impressive is the toast colouring control, in that it doesn't move progressively ie, it has a click arrangement, say, No2 to No3, which then can burn the toast, whereas a position in between would suffice.
We find, too, that the toast is not cooked evenly on both sides, replicating the crumpet setting, which isn't engaged. And the elements aren't burning uniformally, with the middle elements brighter than those on the edges.
Altogether, a disappointing purchase, especially considering its high price.

2 slice artisan automatic toaster
This is the best toaster I have ever used. It automatically pulls the bread in and pops it out. I normally toast white bread on setting 4 and its so perfect and even. Sourdough and olive bread is perfect on 7 as these types of bread have more moisture. It has a really wide slot so I have had no problem with bagels, pide, artisan bread and raisin toast.
My old toaster wasnt wide enough and when the bread came into contact with the coils it would short circuit the house! I love the kitchenaid toaster because its wide enough and well designed so it never does what my old toaster did and it cooks evenly.

Great while it still works
We loved our KMT223 toaster which we bought 3 years ago. However, just a bit out of warranty, it started misbehaving, turning on at random, and popping down and up constantly. No thanks to KitchenAid who refused to even discuss the possibility of a replacement or repair. The toaster is still in immaculate condition apart from what I assume would be an easily repaired fault.
The reason I got to lodge this review is that we like the toaster so much that we went and bought a new one.
So thumbs up to the design, but thumbs right down for the company approach to standing behind the product.

Tripping our power circuit.
I am so disappointed with Kitchen aid!!
I bought the coffee machine and LOVED it until it dispersed more water through the back than the fron
The toaster, well; this is the second toaster of the same model We have purchased within a year! (The first, we lost the receipt when moving house) Both tosters started tripping the power circuit every time we used it. Never again - pulled the good old delonghi out of storage.

It looks good pity it doesn't work as well
Been using it for a week, I have English Muffins for breakfast, I have to put them through twice set on crumpet setting and on max setting 7, then have to turn it off half way through second run!! Expensive for a toaster I find it unsatisfactory and annoying!!!! Look forward to your reply.

Good but not perfect
Is there no toaster that manages to toast both sides of the bread evenly? I had great hopes for this one but it's still not there. The outside is always lighter and if you look down while it's on, you can see the elements on that side are not as bright.
The countdown feature and dials though are really good.And I love the colour - the red looks very classy. It just didn't quite tick all the boxes for me.
