How wide are the slots? are they wide enough for a sliced bagel?

The slots are only about 5/8 inches wide, so I believe they would be a little too narrow for a sliced bagel.

If you mean enough depth for a half-bagel to fit in between the slots, it would depend on the bagel. I expect all but the very thickest ones would work all right. The width is fine, since bagels are generally about 3" across.

They are not wide enough for a sliced bagel. Just perfect for toast though.

You can probably fit a sliced bagel in the slots, but may be a tight squeeze. I just measured and there is about 3/4 of an inch of room in each slot. So, yes, a sliced bagel will fit if not too thick.

About 1 1/4 inch slots will fit a half bagel slice. But this is a horrible toaster. Beware. Read negative reviews.

I read on Amazon that they were between 1.4 & 1.8 inches wide. I've had excellent results with my bread slicer and spatulas. With the knife, the longer the easier to slice through good bread.

I have not tried bagels yet but it does appear to be wide enough to toast them without problem.

I just measured the slots and, by my son's elementary school ruler,and they measure 5.75. I have had no trouble as I use the toaster primarily with English Muffins. I am not sure of the size of pumpernickel or rye slices, only that I enjoy them when I eat them!Good luck ... I like the toaster very much.May D

i believe the question was regarding the opening for the toast as my complaint was that it didn't accomodate the odd shaped bread slices such as pumpernickel. The slots are 6 5/8 inches.

The slots are 5.375 long. I know there are different size rye breads so check your brand. mine fits the 2-slice toaster, which I bought and like very much. I have no experience with the 4-slice.

the slots are 6" long and 2" wide. i haven't put anything in them yet that hasn't fit well, and i have had mine a year now. my sister has had hers 2 or 3 years and still loves it.

Slots are 5.5 inches long and 1.5 inches wide, plenty of room for thick toast/bagels, etc.

Front to back is 11" an 12" wide if you measure lever to lever. the highest point is 9-1/2". Nice wide slots for bagels. It fits on a lazy susan shelf under my cabinet. I would not have purchased to leave on the counter top as it is too large. We bought it after using one in a rental beach house and bought one for our son as well. Been using it several years with no problems.

I have the one that is only a two slice toaster and it is pretty large in size, so I would think this is would be vey large also. Are there any dimensions listed in the description? The slots are large, which I like.

About 1 3/4". I purchase the Einstein bagels from Costco and they fit well.

Big enough for a sliced half of a CostCo bagel or Arnold's style wide loaf pan bread.

Probably up to about 1and 1/2 inches or possibly 1 and 3/4. I get the big bagels and they fit fine.

The slots measure 5-3/8". Have no problem toasting BEEFSTEAK HEARTY RYE which is exactly 6". The toaster is deep enough to accept bread at a slight angle and still toast completely.Hope this helps!

If you mean how wide are the slots, they're approximately 5" wide. Hope this answers your question.

Wide enough for bagels comfortably. But my unit only two of the 4 slots worked. Big disappointment. I don't advise people buy junk-this is junk.
