Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

This toaster includes features that set it apart from the usual, including the ability to automatically keep your toast warm without further browning if you don’t retrieve it immediately.
- The Spruce Eats
Interestingly, the toaster has an automatic “keep warm” function which keeps the toast warm for up to three minutes after toasting. The racks are self-centering and has automatic lift and lowering.
- Minimal Daily
You can pick your choice from seven shades of browning, so you will never be disappointed; also, your other family members can choose their own favorites.

What reviewers didn't like

Users have noted that this is a little slower at making toast, but it toasts much more evenly, so they don’t mind the slight wait.
- The Spruce Eats
One important thing must be mentioned about this beautiful looking toaster, and that is that it is costly for a toaster.
