Background and Identification

The KitchenAid KTT340OB0 is a two-slice toaster with Bagel and Warm functions. The toaster was first available in 2002. Its polycarbonate housing is designed to resist stains, discoloration, and warping. The toaster’s large slots can accommodate most bread and bagel types. The printer includes a soft-rise, self-centering rack with a full-width removable crumb tray. The unit also includes a cord storage area.

A toaster is an electric small appliance designed to expose various types of sliced bread or bagels to radiant heat. This exposure to radiant heat browns the bread so that it is transformed into toast.

The toaster’s Bagel function toasts the cut side of the bagel while warming the crusts. The Warm function reheats previously toasted foods. The Easy Lift lever and Soft Rise feature help users lower or raise food to a graspable height.

The KitchenAid KTT340OB0 toaster includes the name “KitchenAid” in white font on the side of the device. It is generally sold in an onyx black color and includes a shade control dial for shade control and two silver buttons for the “Bagel” and “Warm” functions. The toaster also includes “cut side” markings for bagel toasting, power indicator lights, a dishwasher-safe crumb tray, and power cord storage hooks. The KitchenAid KTT340OB0 model features an even-heat system and a stainless steel interior.
