    In a word it is British!
    Forget the expense, you should not regret spending money on something manufactured in the UK.
    Superior in every way, simple to use and makes delicious toast.

    Like the ability to raise the toast manually. Toasts evenly and crumb tray easy to empty.

    Great toaster, best of many we’ve had. Elements are a doddle to replace, worth doing to keep toast evenly browned after a few year’s use.

    Love the shadow and design of this classic little toaster but find the only drawback is that the outer casing becomes very hot when toasting.

    I am duly pleased with the Dualit Toaster but can not give a detailed review due to the toaster being relatively new. Time will tell and hopefully it will last as long as my old toaster which was 18 years old and still working, unfortunately it was a bit tacky looking otherwise I would have kept it.

    This is my third toaster my first lasted 30 years my second was an upgrade from a 2 slice to a 4 and it’s still going strong. And this purchase was a gift to my son an his family and they are delighted. It’s just such a quality product.

    Love this simple, straight forward toaster. Attractive retro styling and really solidly built.
    Enables high speed toasting. To me fancy gadgetry makes sense if it really improves performance.
    This works well with no fancy gadgetry. I’m but pretty confident it will be durable.

    quality is apparent
    have toasted sliced bread in our existing toaster and then later a good quality bagel in the Dualit
    the dualit cooked slower through the product rather than quick surface toasting in our original toaster
    so far so encouraging
    liked the fact that the toasted bagel remained in the warm toaster ready for use
    slots good width, toasting both sides

    This was a replacement for the original model I have had for 25 years elements changed two or three times – new model has wider slots so hence the purchase no reason not to expect the same performance – my old one still working.

    Nice toaster and it cooks the toast ok, the tray underneath is very cheap looking. I bought the kettle so it all matched but wished I’d bought the SMEG one. It looks ok but not worth 200
