Toasters ..... Talk to me

[BeaLola]

Have very old 2 slicer which hides away in a drawer.

Now there are 3 of us thinking of maybe swiching to a 4 slicer .... any recommendations ? It won'tnecessarily stay out oin display (deending on size)

You put your toaster away?
We use ours a lot and keep it out. We have a Dualit that we had for a wedding present, but has lasted me for years and years. Toast, pitta bread etc always come out perfectly.

And I can polish it to a lovely shine!

I've never had a good toaster & I refuse to pay for a dialit - think it's about £80. Therefore I buy a supermarket own brand one for about £5 - 10 & tend to replace every 4 years or so.

Dualit - not dialit!

They won't you know. Toasters don't talk.

Unless it's like 'I see dead people'

Magimedi:
So if a Dualit costs £80 (and a replacement is £10 or under) ours has already more than paid for itself and is still in perfect nick.

Seems a bit wasteful to me to keep replacing.

But then again it was a gift and I didn't shell out for it myself

I entirely agree with you WowOoo but it's a real sticking point with me to pay that much for a toaster that I use once a day, if that!

(And I've just had a quick google & the 4 slot ones are over £100!!)

I can tell you which one NOT to buy, if that helps. I bought a toaster for my flat in the UK last year and it's crap. Fifty quid, it cost me as well. It doesn't so much toast the bread and warm it up very, very slowly until it's rock hard and slightly beige.

this one

Oh FFS this bloody autocorrect always thinks it knows better than I do.

I'll say that again.

It does not so much toast the bread AS warm it up very, very slowly until it's rock hard and beige.
