What is the max size piece of bread I can put in this toaster?

I imagine 5x5x1", but I haven't tried that size. I use Franz bread in it which measures 5Wx4Hx1/2" thick and it does fine.

I measured it for you from inside edge to inside edge of the slot. The slot is slightly under 5-3/4". You'd have to hack a 1/2" off your bread to make sure it fits comfortably. This one has bigger slots than most but not quite as big as you want.But seriously, how often do you toast 6" bread? It's a really good toaster as toasters go.

The simple answer is "no." Know of NO toaster that handles a slice of bread 6"

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 Lisa,Dimensions. H 7.5 , L 10.5, W 6.5It doesn't toast evenly so I trim the bread to 4"x 4.75". It's great for bagels. For some bread types it doesn't get dark enough (for me) on #5 setting. It does look good. Overall, it's kind of a putsy appliance.Dii

1 and 7/16ths inches wide, from slot side to side. The metal guides inside the toaster take up a tiny bit of that measurement, probably 1/8th of an inch, so a bagel would have to be no thicker than probably 1 and 1/4 inch.

10", will take a slice about 1 1/8 thick. As an aside,,,, I would buy this toaster again!

I have the one that is only a two slice toaster and it is pretty large in size, so I would think this is would be vey large also. Are there any dimensions listed in the description? The slots are large, which I like.

it can hold a piece of bread 5" inches long. We find that bagels are tight in it and often get stuck when trying to pop up. (slots are only about an inch wide) Still, it's fine toaster.

By depressing the toaster level, as you would to toast bread, and sticking a ruler (a wooden one!) down into the toaster slot, I measured 5 in. from the bottom of the slot to where the top of a 5 in. slice of Dough bread would rest. We toast smaller slices of bread however.

I don't have the toaster here with me but I can tell you that a slice of packaged rye bread is a little large for the toaster. It sticks out of the top of the toaster a little.

The size of the slot is right about 5.5 inches long, so if your bread slice is longer than that it won't fit. In response to the other people who answered, each slot is about 3/4 of an inch wide. I haven't had any trouble toasting bagels in it, but I would imagine larger ones might get stuck. HOWEVER, when that happens, there is absolutely no reason to use a knife, the little handle can be raised up quite a bit higher in order to lift the toast out (that's one of the reasons I bought this toaster. No danger with using short bread). And yeah, I agree it has spring strong enough to launch toast out onto the counter.

It's not the width of the entire toaster. So I recommend emptying over something or there will certainly be spillage.

Hi, The slots are 1.5 inches wide and 5.5 inches long. We buy various whole grain breads such as Pepperidge Farm, Orowheat, etc. and they go in fine. If your slice is over 5.5 inches, it might be a tight fit. I agree with Lisa G., some breads you will have to trim a bit.

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.

I'm not at home now, so can't actually measure, but when I toast a piece of bread from a large size loaf of Pepperidge Farm bread (like 9 grain bread) it goes in but I have to squeeze it in. After it toasts, it fits and pops out just fine.

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.
