Are dualit toasters really that bad?

Lots of posters don't like them on here. I was going to get one for my mum and dad, they have such a dreadful ratty old toaster so I thought I'd buy them a dualit for Christmas. They have such a lovely house, I always wince when I see the crappy toaster they have (it's not big enough for a decent slice of bread, the top always stays untoasted!) so I thought a dualit would be a good replacement. My mum is an interior designer, so she really appreciates things that look good too, but of course they've got to work as well.

So dualit or no dualit? If not, any other similar type you can recommend?

Who doesn't like them ?

I have one, it is brill. V expensive though

I wouldn;t buy one of the cheaper plasticky fashiony toasters they do, you know the coloured ones as I don't think they are as well built as the proper all stainless steel ones. I think you are just paying for the name with the coloured ones tbh.

Agree with sausage - if you are going to get a dualit get the all-stainless-steel one. Mine is also ever so slightly dented, but other than that it is indestructible!

I love mine (4 slot, stainless steel).
