To get toaster rage?

[PolaDeVeboise]

For our sins, we prefer a Warburtons loaf for toast, however, our toaster doesn't blardy toast it properly. Can anyone recommend one that does? (max £40).

WARBURTONS? You can't come on here eating Warburtons! This is Mumsnet. It has to be handtrodden sourdough grown from your own bodily yeasts and matured under the full moon.

PS: no idea re toaster, sorry.

Asda George long-slice toaster - fits Warbys beautifully. I'll try and find you some links.

Before we found this toaster, we resorted to taking a Warbys-sized piece of cardboard out with us ...

I have the old version of this and it works. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00X5ZN92I?tag=mumsnetforu03-21

I'm pretty sure we're currently using their standard 4-slice toaster (£25) as the photo looks the same, and there's no long-slice version listed on the website.

Jammyhands your reply epitomises everything I love about MN.

OP no idea about the toaster either, sorry. Maybe just use the grill?

OP, draw around a slice on a piece of card, head to currys and test it. Thats what I did when I bought my last toaster as I was bloody sick of having to turn bread halfway through.

YABU anyway cos Jacksons bread is where its at.

You need to try Roberts extra thick bread for toast!

We have just bought this toaster
www.argos.co.uk/product/9191350
and it's very good so far: fits bread sideways so it toasts all over, and has wide slots so you can easily toast crumpets. Also does defrosting so you can toast bread straight from the freezer if that happens to be something you want to do.

For all it is a four-slice toaster it isn't huge in its footprint, nor very tall. And it is copper-coloured, which probably won't last but at the moment it's fun.

(Yes, all right, I am in love with my new toaster. So sue me!)

@JammyHands I expect to be run out of town any minute.

@EnterNight - what is this 'Jacksons' you speak of, and will I be able to 'source' in Central Scotland?

Thanks for the recommendations guys, just checking them all out.

There is a Breville. toaster that is specifically designed for warburtons bread. I just bought one but haven't tried warburtons in it yet sorry.

I have ordered the Breville one - thanks all!

YABU anyway cos Jacksons bread is where its at.

I've not had any Jacksons bread since lockdown :( our local supermarket doesn't stock it :(

Sorry OP no toaster advice.

We're all about Jacksons bread in our house! We get it from Ocado. The wholemeal is to die for and every now and then I treat us to a white loaf.

We have the Asda 4 slice toaster which fits big slices. £25 I think.

FWIW, have found toasting Warburtons on setting 4 and then putting it on reheat seems to work

Discovered Jacksons last year and wouldn't buy anything else now. Fortunately I've been able to get it through lockdown.

The stuff is witchcraft though. We don't eat a huge amount of bread between DH and I and sometimes a Jacksons loaf can still be soft and edible after 5/6 days.

@PolaDeVeboise Its sold in Waitrose, though I have seen it in a few local smaller shops. There is a 'where to buy here'. Well worth a try if you can find it:

Jackson's clearly the best. In fact champion.

It's in Morrisons!
