The Cuisinart Custom Select 4-Slice Toaster RBT-1350PC is a metal-bodied four-slot toaster with multiple toasting modes. It has the garden-variety preset modes for bagels and frozen items and more unconventional settings intended for pastries, waffles, and more. Its slots are fairly deep and somewhat long, but they can be too narrow to fit thick baked goods.

Popular Toaster Comparisons
The Cuisinart Custom Select 4-Slice Toaster RBT-1350PC is a four-slot toaster with a metal body. It's very similar in design to the Cuisinart 4 Slice Custom Select Toaster but features a slightly different control scheme with a rotary dial for adjusting the shade setting, as opposed to the latter's slider, which didn't allow you to select increment settings. This makes the RBT-1350PC the better option if you want to adjust the length of the toasting cycle more precisely.

Test Results
This toaster has a variety of settings for different kinds of items. The 'Bagel' setting turns down the elements on one side to avoid burning the bottom of your bagel, and the 'Defrost' (Frozen) setting is meant to warm frozen items like waffles gently before toasting. It has presets for bread, waffles, pastry, and English muffins. There's also a 'Single' button for when you're only toasting one slice of bread. Unlike the Cuisinart 4 Slice Custom Select Toaster, the RBT-1350PC's shade setting dial allows you to select increment settings for more precise levels of toasting.
