Toasts evenly and very fast, like 3x times faster than cheap toasters. Build quality is outstanding and it looks fantastic, gives 60s vibes.It has a mechanical timer which makes a bit of noise but I like it that way, you want to hear it working so you don’t forget it’s on. It heats up in seconds, don’t leave it unattended.Best toasts I ever ate, seriously.Not worth the price though but if you want efficient toast making than this is it.
This toasts fairly evenly, it’s perfect for normal sliced bread and crumpets. I’ve toasted bagels but found they got stuck if they were a bit on the larger size. Looks good in the kitchen so doesn’t need to be put away in valuable cupboard space.
What can I say? It's Dualit.... replacing a very old, past mending similar model... it's almost family- and visitor -proof and worth the money - the old one out-lived many, often replaced, toasters owned by other members of the family.Elements last well, but when they do eventually wear out, unlike most toasters, they are easily replaced with available spare parts.Doubt I will need to at my age, but I'd buy another if this one wears out.
Love this toaster- retro looks quality product and absolutely brilliant- quirky at first with clockwork timer and a switch between 2 and 4 slot operation and manual lift . But like an AGA stove - you'll learn how it works and end up loving it - brilliant toaster and repairable so Green too. Love it.
This is a beautifully made, sturdy toaster. It operates differently to your normal pop-up toasters so it might take some getting use to. It toasts quicker than regular models so you end up with a toast that's crisp on the outside and soft in the middle which I very much prefer. This is a product that will last a lifetime if you look after it and the manufacturer provides spare parts in case it needs fixing down the line.
No frills, no built-in AI asking me how I would like my toast, no electronic screens, just a timer and solidly made toaster with heating elements one can replace. Just the best.
The best in the market !!! Although I find it very annoying that a slice of thick white warburtons bread disengage fit in wholey ! Too large per slice !!!
I purchased this to replace a Kenwood toaster which had lasted 10 years based on reviews I'd seen. I was not disappointed. It looks very smart sitting on my worktop and makes lovely toast. The switch for one slot toasting is handy. Only downside to this is that if you put a waffle in to toast, because the holder is on an angle to raise and lower the item it gets stuck and you have to fish it out. But we have learnt from that episode. I have had this several months now and would definitely recommend it
This toaster is so nice and shiny. It looks so nice on my countertop. It's so pretty and classic.This toaster toasts the toast very evenly. If you twist the dial to the weird symbol that comes right after 2, your toast will be toasted to the perfect toastyness. I imagine that must be what that symbol symbolises.You can use the red switch to switch from operating 2 of the toast slots to 4 of the toast slots (to save energy or whatever!).This is a really stylish, nice quite-mechanical toaster that I think you will enjoy.
Had this for a week now and it’s a beast of a toaster. Gets very hot, very quickly, and gives fairly even toast which is nice and soft inside.Timer is a bit trial and error at first but I love the pop up lever to have a little look to see if your toast is done. Doesn’t auto pop up like most which I was a little worried about, but having gotten used it, it’s much better.Looks great and I get the impression it’ll last a very long time as it’s built very well.
After years of buying 'cheap' toasters which either didn't last long or made brittle toast decided to invest in this. Best decision- makes great toast and is simple to use. Only drawback is that some large sliced bread is too big but as I mainly buy small loaves I don't see this as an issue. There is no automatic pop up facility when finished but I find this helps to keep the toast warm until I'm ready to use the manual pop up.
A toaster for life. Still hand made in England. I decided to go for the polished stainless steel option and it's a real statement. These classic Dualits aren't pop-up toasters, they use a timer and have a manual lever to raise the toast - very simple to use. Wide slots can accommodate a hand-cut bread. The Vario model has a two/four slot switch. This toaster gives great results as you'd expect at this price. If you're in the market for an expensive toaster then this is really the one to have. All parts are easily replaced and readily available - Dualit also to a repair service for UK customers.
What can I say? It comes with a piece of paper that shows who made it… wow! A superb item. Works flawlessly, looks incredible… a British classic renowned the world over. I bought one for my son’s wedding present… I hope they both like toast!
I thought I was buying into a maintainable toaster, having just binned two.I've been surprised that it actually makes better toast too. The toast is toasted on the outside but fluffy on the inside. My previous toaster produced a more uniformly dried out piece of bread. I'm guessing the Dualit runs hotter elements to more quickly toast without drying out.However it does it, I thought toast was toast, but no, this really does do a better job than my previous 'cheapo' toaster.
I really bought this because I liked the idea of a professional type of toaster . I don't think I would pay so much for a toaster for my residence but it is for a "holiday let"in Largs and I like to put in sturdy good quality items and tenants appreciate it. I have only looked at it so far and it looks good and I reckon it will produce good toast but who knows...I guess someone will use it soon but personally I never toast anything.It does look nice and feel solid though and should not be confused with the plasticky cheaper Dualit,nice enough though they are too.
Like: all parts are replaceable, it is solid/sturdy, toast can be raised/lowered during toasting to check colour, produces very good toast - crisp on the outside, soft in the middle.No dislikes
Beautiful, Durable, and makes perfect evenly cooked toast every time. I’ve fallen in love with eating toast again, since I bought a Dualit!I considered buying a Dualit toaster for 2 years, because it’s sooo expensive, and I just couldn’t justify the cost.Since purchase however, I have to say it is TOTALLY WORTH IT!! Perfect toast every time has made us fall in love with toast as a snack all over again, and manufactured replacement parts means it will last forever.There is a reason why almost every ward in every hospital in the entire NHS use Dualit toasters. They are EXCELLENT and cost-effective.
Like most others with a view for good design I'd always wanted a Dualit toaster but the cost deterred me. However when I found this 4 slice for £130 it was time to press the buy button. I like the quirkiness of the Dualit design ie. the mechanical timer and the lever to raise the toast keeps the toast warm. Some reviewers have mentioned how much better the toast tastes and believe it or not it does, especially when you cut the bread that little bit thicker and let the margarine or butter soak in. Perhaps not the healthiest recommendation but once in a while won't hurt. Enjoy it - I am
I’ve had one of these for years and have just bought one for my daughter as a wedding present. They are lovely to look at and just go on and on seemingly indestructible.
This is the second Dualit I've owned. This one is a replacement for one that lasted fifteen years. It's an excellent machine that enables you to toast fresh or frozen bread to exactly how you like it. Expensive in the short term but great value if it lasts as long as my first one did.Also, the support staff were first rate in helping me with a minor problem of my own making.Regrettably my toaster has been quite poor. I think one of the elements is defective. I have had such great previous experience with an earlier model of Dualit that I have asked for a replacement not a refund.
It's an odd fact that virtually all toasters available for domestic use are the wrong size for the everyday slice of bread. There's always an inch or so of bread sticking out that doesn't get toasted. You'd think that they'd at least know the size of a slice of bread, wouldn't you. The first thing that strikes about the Dualit is that the bread actually fits inside completely. So simple but so unusual. Sturdily constructed it takes up almost a square foot of worktop but we can live with that! With the manual variable timer you get the toast you want. Probably one of the best kitchen 'tools' that we've ever bought. Yes, it's expensive but as they say 'you get what you pay for' & this is worth every penny. Great!
These things are solid... it's just classic old school manufacturing that doesn't break. It's one of those products that you put in your will to leave to your favourite child :) It lasts that long... my last one still worked fine (22 years old), but it was only three slot and quite frankly needed a good scrub down. It now has a new home and will likely last another generation. Longevity costs, but it's worth it.
A toaster made in Britain, with easily-available spare parts when eventually one or more of the three elements wears out. Simple clockwork mechanism means no microcircuit chips from abroad. Simple lever system to raise the toasted bread. I only had to watch it the first time to learn how long it takes to toast, to know how long to set the mechanical timer - easy-peasy! I like it’s rounded lines, like the fact I can save electricity by turning off an element if I’m toasting only one slice, and I like the crumb tray. Makes great toast quickly.
After having bought several toasters of various values and having them last about 18 months (producing one sided toast)I decided to treat us to a dualit. So far I have not been disappointed. It does produce evenly browned toast that is crisp and crunchy.It does look the business in the kitchen.I think on reflection I would have spent a little extra and bought the more expensive one that you can vary the amount of bread you toast as in 1,2,3,or 4 slices. With this one the instructions recommend that you don't do just one slice to leave the other slot burning with no bread in. You can do 2 or 4 slices though.One more thing - don't tell other non converts how much you paid for it. They look at you like you are mad for paying that much but they don't know how good it is!!
Classic, high quality toaster - two and bit minutes = perfect toast. What more do you want?
Made in England 🏴Beautiful toaster 😍Toasts my bread perfectly 👌🏻Repairable.Made from metal.It should last for many years.
If you are in the market for a toaster Dualit should be right at the top of your list.Bought this to compliment my new kitchen and boy it stands out.Keep it OUT from under kitchen wall cabinets as it gets VERY HOT.Will easily produce 4 slices of toast in only 2 minutes flat.Very quick and an absolute beast. Never known a toaster to toast bread so quickly.Surprised the hotels abroad don't use them they are SO FAST.
