I have the 4-slicer Cuisinart which I like, in the white. No burnt hands,
and no escaping pieces of saran wrap hitting the hot sides of the toaster.
Bagels work fine in the 4-slicer. I've had it for a number of years now,
and I still like it.

We bought the smaller one for DH's dad. Since he doesn't make toast
anymore, I think I'll see if he wants to send it my way again.
I've made toast with his, and it works as well as the 4 slicer I have, but I
can't remember if I've toasted bagels on the smaller one - probably not.
