Any idea how high (tall) a slice of bread can be for full coverage toasting?

Toast size about 4-3/4"H x 5-1/4" W. It's just right for the larger Brownberry/premium bread slices, but not much larger.

This toaster accommodates standard bread slices & bagels with ease. We purchase a brand of wheat sourdough that is wider than standard so I have to either slice off a bit before toasting or toast half at a time. Fortunately, this is a unique size loaf so I would not expect to find an upright toaster to accommodate it. I could purchase a toaster oven but who needs the clutter?

You can fit four pieces of toast comfortably or even bagels... BUT BEWARE... Even on the lowest setting it burns everything.. You have to stand over it and watch

It does take full size pieces of bread, but I returned the toaster and filed this review:This is a terrible product - even at its low cost. I'm very grateful that amazon took it back and refunded my money so I could buy something else. There were three issues: 1) NOT WIDE ENOUGH - though advertised as a bagel toaster, the slots were not wide enough; 2) DANGEROUS - most of the time, the toast did not pop-up high enough and I was forced to use put a knife in to get the toast out; 3) RIDICULOUS - sometimes a slice of toast would actually pop straight out of the toaster and land on the counter.

It could be - but the whole thing gets hot to the touch, so it would have to be placed where no one would brush against it. I have not tried to make a lot of toast at once, but it is not very fast.

This is a wonderful toaster, but I don't belief that it will accomodate 61/2" bread. The toaster will accomdate bread 5 inches deep and 51/2 inches wide. If you are willing to cut your bread in half the toaster will easily accomodate your bread. Good luck in your search for a toaster that will accomodade your bread, suggest looking at a toaster oven.

Got for son and daughter in law who make their own bread. Slices are thick but don't know if wide.

Approximately 34 1/2". Great toaster!! Adjustability for various thicknesses of bread is great!! Makes great paninis, also!!

I don't know what Oroweat is. In Canada we get a squareish slice from D'Italiano which is every so slightly too small - so it certainly would take a larger slice. I've just measured the size of the toaster sandwiche areas and each is 5" x 5". It would take a slightly larger slice with the effect that the toaster itself would seal and cut off anything larger than the toasting area. Hope this helps.

This design won't save you from a singe. The pop up distance seems only normal. I have to use tongs for smaller slices that are about the size of smallish English muffins. With the toaster on a powerstrip, the power can be turned off for digging deep with metal tongs.

hard to tell exactly, seems to be about 5 inches, can accommodate Pepperidge Farm hearty sliced bread. We have loved this toaster, previously the 2 slice toaster we bought at Costco stopped working after a few months.

Its just shy of 6"long and 6" deep. It fits bigger slices than your typical "white bread" slices. I too was not sure as to whether to buy this toaster or not. I can assure you that I am quite happy with the toaster and its many functions

Roughly 5" is the simple answer. That is how tall a piece of bread that can be toasted. The slot itself is only 2", but then it lowers 3" into the toaster.

It's about 2 inches,can fit English muffin ,i like this toaster.there is only one thing if you toast only one slice of bread it's gets real dark you will have to adjust the darkness on the side of toaster.

Hello Howard,I have my oven in the place where the microwave once was. I ha plenty of clearance. The oven is no different then a regular toaster oven. You should have at least 4 inches of clearance and you should be fine. Remember never set anything on top of unit.

You'd have to define "large" more clearly. It certainly can toast thick pieces of bread. Bagels are no problem. (In fact, it will toast the cut surface darker than the outside, if you want it to.)How wide is the slice that you wish to toast.

The height is 4.5 inches from the base that the bread sits on to the top of the sides. I bake a 1.5 lb loaf and it well below the top. What I dislike about it is that the sides wander apart and in order to get a good slice of bread I wind up using one hand to hold the sides closer together and slicing with the other. Also the sides are very flimsy and I can see them easily breaking in the near future. Altogether, I am not pleased with this and have stopped using it.

You can lift up on the handles to raise (1/2"?) the toast if it is not above the top of the slot.
