Roger, South Coast , “Retired batchelor”
+ Very fast toaster, smart, makes a ringing noise just as it finishes just loud enough to draw it to one's attention.
- None really, except I wonder how long the thin element wire will last, some toasters have elements rather like 1 bar fires. I will soon learn which is warming and which is frozen!!

Magsy, Kincardine
+ Unlike a lot of other 'pretty' toasters, this one actually does the job it is meant to - i.e. it toasts a full slice of bread from a standard sized loaf. The last one I bought wouldn't accept a slice from a standard sliced loaf!!! So, here we have super design and excellent functionality, all in a reasonably priced item! Yes, I definitely recomment this piece of equipment. The roll/croissant heater works very well too!
- The controls are a little tad over sensitive but are fine when you get used to them although I wouldn't like to see the result if the machine was on full power! Cremation I would think!

+ No bad points. Just depends on texture of the bread as to when its done. Trial and error with different bread.
