Ratings & Reviews for Cafe Stainless steel 2 -Slice Toaster

Lever won’t stay down

We recently redid our entire kitchen in GE cafe appliances. We were happy to learn cafe had a matching toaster to add to the new look of the kitchen. We’ve had the new toaster for a few months when the lever would not stay down, making it useless. We’ve removed the few crumbs it had and still can not get the lever to stay down.

Toxic smell

The toaster looks cool, but we had to put it in the garage for a few weeks due to the toxicity of the fumes it emits. It's in the house now but still hasn't burned off all the plastic used in manufacturing. Ugh.

I don't recommend

I do not like this toaster. It does not toast evenly. It also either toasts too much or too little. This is the 2nd one I have owned as well. The 1st one broke in under a year for no apparent reason. I was hoping it was just a bad toaster, but this 2nd one is just as poor. I give it 2 stars because it doesn't use much plastic and looks nice.

Great features!

This is the most adorable toaster! We love how it blends in with our kitchen.

Proof that Beauty isn’t Everything — Save Your $$$

This toaster, while very attractive, is poorly made and barely performs as well as much cheaper toasters. Even during the 12 months the toaster worked, it did a poor job of toasting, unevenly toasting the two sides of a piece of bread and doing an even worse job toasting bagels. While the warranty lasts 12 months, my toaster stopped toasting at the beginning of month 13, leaving me with an attractive object for my countertop but not the toaster I need and will now have to replace after already ...

Great looking

Great style. Not too big. Easy to hide the cord. Toasts evenly

Very uneven browning

When performing the ONE SINGLE TASK that is expected to do: Toast bread - it does a less than stellar job. The browning is VERY uneven. The only thing that is consistent, is the inconsistency of the browning.

LOVE GE CAFE'

Love the Express Finish :) and sleek design. Also the Bagel feature

Broke after only a few uses.

I received this toaster as a gift for Christmas. It broke only after a few uses. It appears the carriage assembly isn’t very sturdy and bent very easily just from popping up. I did get a replacement toaster as it was still covered by warranty. I suggest GE find a better quality supplier.

Looks nice

Nothing great, Average toaster than looks nice Will see how long it lasts

Great Toaster

Best toaster I’ve ever used. It gets hot and creates the desired effectiveness evenly and quickly. It looks good too. we have matching GE Cafe appliances (stove, refrigerator and dishwasher)

not that great

still learning settings, but don't like the heating performance, works best when pushing the frozen button. If set at 8 it does not toast bread comes out barely toasted. Not worth the money, I would buy something else if I knew.

Great Design

Love the design and performance so far. Hope it lasts long!!!

Gorgeous Toaster

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gorgeous, sleek, and toasts well. It really pops with my other appliances.

Looks great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looks great in my kitchen and the versatility to toast and cook frozen food is great!

So Much More Than A Toaster

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love the simplicity of the toaster. Easy to use and the color and style fits with the Cafe wall oven and Cafe Smart microwave. Cleaning the crumb tray is so much easier with the door to the side of the toaster. Making toast is considerably faster than a traditional toaster. The controls are at your fingertips and easy to use. The 2 slot capacity is large enough for a bagel and therefore big enough for any size toast you want to make.

Disappointed in quality

I have one toaster and it no longer toasts on all 4 sides

won’t last long

Nice looking but terrible quality otherwise. This gave out after about 2 years. For the price point, I shouldn’t have to buy a new toaster every other year. It doesn’t leave our counter and stays plugged into the same outlet, so it hasn’t had a hard life. Extremely disappointing.

Great Features, Awesome Colors, High Performance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just Love the Cafe line. I have the matte black fridge, stove, microwave and the toaster. Next is the dishwasher 🩷🖤love them all🫶thank you GE for making this beautiful, super high tech, multi functional kitchen appliances. Don’t stop making them cause I need the dishwasher in matte black 🤣
