Other than looking great on my counter, this toaster is not worth the price. I like my toast lightly browned on both sides, but to achieve the doneness I prefer, your toast always comes out nicely browned on one side but burnt on the other. I have had this toaster for over a year now, it was given to me as a Christmas gift. I have not eaten a piece of toast that wasn't burnt since I got it. This toaster has a digital display that goes from 1 to 9, but anything past 2 burns the toast.
Worth the money. Very nice toaster. I like the way the control is on the front and not the end like on most other models.
I was willing to accept that as I very much liked the design of the product, the dial switch and the led light. At that point there was no way to program it and it would have to be returned.
Not asking that much, really. Look good on my counter.
Form follows function and this toaster simply wasn't doing what I paid for it to do. Toast bread.
The Breville toaster was disapointing from the very first, as the bread wasn't browning evenly on both sides. But when the dial which calibrates the degree of color for the toast stopped working, I figured it had to go.
No.
This is important because, depending on the consistancy of the bread, different brands may toast slightly different. The first is that it needs a secondary lift to be able to extract small baquette toast. I only have two minor complaints. It used two steps counts for each number as it counts down, so I think that this should be a "no brainer" for Breville. I have used this toaster for about a half-year now to see if it didn't degrade or die after a short time like some reviews that I saw. This toaster has performed flawless in all that time and it browns evenly. The second thing that it needs is the ability to use half-step of the numbers.
All in all, a quality product. It toasts bread evenly, and the setting for bagels works nicely, too. This toaster does the next best thing -- it has a display that lets you know how much longer you have to wait till the toast pops. I also appreciate the crumb tray, which is easy to remove without spilling crumbs on the counter. Call me impatient. I wish toast happened instantly. The feature that allows you to peek without interrupting the toasting process is handy as well.
