How long (wide) are the slots? I need it to fit a wider (not thicker) piece of bread.

It is measures 1/4 by 1 1/8 which is narrower in both dimensions than most toasters. There are quote a few that are 5 1/2 x 1 1/2. If you use wider bread as you describe, such as oblong rye, a good choice would be a toaster with one or two long slots

I don't know the exact measurement, but it does not fit a full slice of rye bread nicely.

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

I measured the slots length opening and it is exactly 5 1/2 inches long. The whole grain bread that we use fits fine and is a little over 5 inches long and standard width. We have toasted hot dog rolls and the length of the bun fits all the way down and toasts nicely. A slice of bread that measures 5 1/2 inches may be a little tight fit. But we love the toaster and would recommend it.

Slots are 5 1/4 in long, almost 1 1/2 in wide. Once bread is inside, total depth is 4 1/2 in.

The bread support is no more than 1/3" from being as wide as the opening. I tried to "lose" a poptart in the slot and there was no way that it could slip, unless you wedge the tart into the space on an angle. Hope this helps!

I love this toaster. Slots measure 4" deep and 5 1/4" long. Hope this helps.

The length of the slots is 5 inches ... actually, maybe about an eighth of an inch larger, but the tray is five inches. We use OroWheat 100% Whole Wheat and I find the opening a tiny bit too small ... however, we can push the bread down through it and it works just fine. This toaster is beautiful and does a credible job toasting.

Hi, Deb! It depends on what you mean by "long". I buy Vienna bread from my grocery store bakery and some of the slices are about 1-1/2 the width of a regular slice of bread. I can usually fit them into the slot (front to back) or if they are slightly too wide I can put them in diagonally and get a good result. By width I don't mean how thick it's sliced, I mean side to side measurement. It is about the same depth of any other toaster. Hope this helps you make a choice.

Yes and no. Thick bread fits, but you have to push it in as the slot starts to recede.

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.

slots are approximately 5 1/4 inches long on the inside of the toaster slot, which is on the smaller side. Sometimes I do have to trim the edge of a slice of bread in order to fit in the toaster. Not great but I still love this oven/toaster because of its combination use. Hope this helps.

The toasting slots are 5 1/2 in. long. If I have a long piece of bread, I toast it on it's end, flip and toast other end. Hope this helps your decision making. :)

I have 2 slots. Each is 10" wide. It will hold a slice of bread 1-1/8" thick. Hope it will work for you. It's a great toaster

I haven't had that problem. It is 5 inches wide which is big enough for the size pan I use. The length doesn't seem to matter. I slice the bread with an electric knife about 1/4 inch thick and then push the bread through and continue until there are several slices, then bag those and continue. I love this product because I like thin bread, and I can make the slices any thickness I choose.

The toaster slot is 6" long and 2" wide. Very ample for large bagel or thick toast. That is one of the reasons I like this model. All the others were very stingy in slot size. Hope this helps.

Yes, a standard piece of bread will fit in it, but I like the edges to hang out a little bit anyway so that I can cut them off with a knife. It tastes better that way.

The bread slots are 5 1/2" long by 1 1/2" wide - measured at the top surface.
