Just kidding. This toaster doesn’t take an hour - It toasts perfectly grilled cheese in just minutes. It actually works great. One thing I would say is just try to keep anything you would put in your sandwich from touching the heating elements and remain within the provided baskets and it won’t start smoking on ya. I learned that back in toaster school 101. I found the slots to be adequate for toasting two regular sized slices of bread (about one half inch or one centimeter depending on your religion) with two slices of cheese in the middle. Tomorrow I’m going to go out on a limb and throw in a tomato in the middle. Wish me luck. I’ll get back to y’all with my results. I’m pretty stoked I found this cause at the moment i believe it’s the most affordable toaster on Amazon and also I love grilled cheese. Gotta go toast toast!

*Update: It can handle a grilled cheese with 2 slices of 1/8” thin sliced tomato laid side by side. This is a whole nother level of awesomeness.
*Update 2: After 1 week, the lettering stamped on the toaster for toast settings rubs off with the slightest touch. It’s like the ink is poor quality . I’m reducing my review to 4 stars for this. Still a good toaster for the money
