Breville Ikon Toaster CT7 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I hate toasters, that is to say, I hate toasters that don't... toast. In the past, I have returned new toasters along with toasted samples that show how poorly the product functioned. It has been a curiousity of mine that we can put men on the moon, explore the ocean depths, even perform complex organ transplants; yet man can not create an appliance that will consistently and evenly toast a piece of bread.
Our previous toaster lived a long, albeit, mediocre life. We would have liked to have replaced it with a similar model since our expectations (low) were already molded by the last one, but it had be discontinued which left us on the quest to find another brand. Arghhh!
The search ended with the Breville CT75XL 4 slice toaster. We've had the toaster for about 30 days and have toasted a variety of breads, bagels,and frozen waffles; all to our complete amazement and satisfaction.
The unit's footprint is a bit large but acceptable, yet then most 4 slice toasters tend to be on the behemoth side these days. I'm not sure why the darkness control goes to all the up to 10 as we have found that setting it to 4 seems to be plenty dark enough. The digital display has an integrated timer with segments that blink as the toasting time counts down. When the toast is ready, the toaster will beep just prior to popping up the product.
Now, I'm not a professional product reviewer so I won't go into the nitty-gritty details as to the features. You can read all about them from the manufacturer's website. I just wanted to let those that are interested, that, for one who hates toasters, the Breville has been a pleasant find.

Dualit Lite Soft Touch Toaster Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this lovely toaster because (a) my toaster oven takes about 5 minutes to make toast - and that's its only job (b) my toaster oven is HUGE and SO UGLY! I got fed up with how much space it took up in my pantry and finally decided to splurge on the Dualit. I wanted a toaster that I loved to look at, so I could leave it on the counter without 'shame.' It is beautiful and makes perfect toast in under 60 seconds. It's so good, actually, that I burnt my first try because I had the settings up too high. (Heat scale is 1-9: on a 3, I had perfect toast in less than a minute.) On setting 9 my toast was ... not toast. For those who appreciate well-designed items, I highly recommend that you splurge on this toaster! [For size perspective, the Dualit Lite is the same size as a regular 2-slice toaster. I was afraid it would be too small, but it's just right to keep out all the time.]

With its sleek, contemporary design, this four-slice toaster brings a new level of sophistication to breakfast time. The unit features durable ABS housing saddled with polished stainless steel for a unique appeal that won't go unnoticed. More than just good looks, however, the appliance comes equipped with a variable browning-control dial for adjusting the shade from light to dark, a lowering lever with a stay-cool knob, and extra-wide slots that adjust automatically to accommodate bagels, English muffins, and even thick slices of homemade bread. Push the "bagel" button to toast the cut side of bagels while gently warming the outside, or push the "defrost" button to defrost frozen pastries or waffles before toasting to perfection. The appliance also offers a peek-and-pop function for checking the status while toasting and a neon light that glows during the toasting process or flashes when toasting buns. Other highlights include a high-lift mechanism for easily removing smaller items; 900 watts of power to ensure fast, crisp results; and a slide-out crumb tray for quick cleanup. The four-slice toaster measures approximately 15 by 6-2/3 by 8 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
