Product Details
The Dualit Classic Vario AWS 4 Slice Toaster 40579 (Sandstone) is a premium kitchen appliance that has earned its reputation through decades of outstanding British craftsmanship. Individually hand-built in the UK, each toaster carries the name of its assembler, reflecting Dualit's commitment to quality and attention to detail.
Powered by a 2200W heating system, this four-slice toaster features patented ProHeat® elements that provide consistent, even browning while being fully replaceable to maximise the product's lifespan. The energy-efficient slot selector allows you to heat one, two, three or all four slots depending on your needs, helping to reduce unnecessary energy consumption.
The mechanical timer and manual eject lever give you complete control over the toasting process, allowing toast to remain warm until you're ready to serve. Extra-wide slots accommodate thick-cut bread, bagels and crumpets with ease, while the defrost function offers added convenience. Built with replaceable parts and a fully repairable design, the Classic Vario AWS is engineered to provide decades of reliable performance, making it a true investment for any kitchen.
