      Damn, I was about to say this was the best thing since sliced bread…

      The fact that it doesn't have a sliding tray is a 'No No' for a toaster.. at least for me. :)

      I got a $5 toaster like 5 years ago from coles.

      Still works today and the toast is faultless.

      Anyway, props to the host who boasts the most toast

      • I have a cheap toaster too, but one thing I will say is this toaster has ceramic elements if I am not mistaken, and will probably outlast 5 cheap toasters

        • Assuming my toaster breaks tomorrow, this toaster will have to last 37 years to be of equivalent value according to your rarionale

          Im Gonna call it early as the boaster with the best toaster

        • +1

          @pointless comment: I can't comment from experience with these type of toasters but I have a heater with ceramic elements that's been going for 41 years. It has 2 elements and one of them has been changed once. Don't know how the rest of this thing is made though, so who knows really how long it will last.

          I have had 3 in about 7 years, I think most blow because a crumb catches on fire near part of the crazy thin element that is painted on the pcb type board, could be because I am lazy about cleaning it

          Haha al@Jackson: haha all good dude:) . I challenge anyone else to knock Jackson off his throne as the ozbargain toaster king.

          You surely must boast the most toast from coast to coast

          adios - gone, im ghost

        • @pointless comment: we can keep going, I am keeping a toaster from the 60s that's an heirloom, it even goes down automatically when you drop the bread in!

      Take ProductReview with a large dose of salt… its useful to see the range of issues that can occur, but dont make the mistake of thinking the ratio of good vs bad reviews reflect real life results.

      A $7 toaster at KMart might last 10 years (or 5 minutes!). A $600 toaster from David Jones might last the same. All brands have units that last an unusually short, or long time, and perform unusually bad, or excellent.

      What can differ, is features, physical component quality, warranty length/support, and the likelihood of problems. I would expect a $100 toaster to offer more, and last longer than a $7 one, although I know there is a chance I may get unlucky.

      ProductReview is very heavily skewed towards people who find that site after googling problems they encounter - and they then leave a negative review.
      Its a much smaller proportion of people (with good experiences) that find the site and choose to leave a positive review.
      Even if 100 people complain about a model - that 100 may reflect only 0.01% of all of that item sold and 60+ or 80+ percent of owners may be quite happy but just not review.

      I find a much better site for reviews is Amazon.com (even if I intend to buy the product locally). Its a lot more balanced for verified purchasers of the products to leave a review of their experience with the product.

      I have often found specific brands/models on ProductReview.com.au with a very low rating (eg score 1.8/5 from 25 reviews) but then on Amazon the exact same product has a 4.2/5 score from 300 reviews.

      • Amazon reviews are also quite frequently done by people who haven't purchased the product, and have instead been given a copy for review. I'll leave it up to you whether you think such reviews can be trusted or not.

        You can filter by reviews by Verified Purchase Only to try and prevent this.

    It is cheap, although!

    Bad bad reviews.

    Gonna take a pass on this deal.

    • Yep. Pass all over it

      • Don't forget that people buying a toaster for 150 bucks are expecting more than people buying a cheap toaster. This is probably the cause of most of the unmet expectations

  • Good price! is there an easy way to sort out what's included in extra 25% off deal? Or is it just random clicking around

  • +2

    I was almost put off by reviews but haven't had a problem with it after over a year

    • That's good to know. You find it toasts evenly? I was looking at one of these earlier, but got put off by the reviews as well.

      • +1

        Yeah, the only complaint is that it's only a 2-slice which is ridiculous for the RRP!

    • +3

      Probably a bad toaster for $150, probably a good one for $40. Reviews scaled accordingly…

    • +1

      Has the glass stayed clean? I imagine you wouldn't be able to clean it very easily and it would get sooted up.

      • +1

        INNER GLASS WINDOW
        The inner glass window may require occasional cleaning.
        • Switch the power off and remove the plug from the wall power outlet.
        • The toaster must not be hot.
        • Lay the toaster on its back.
        • Insert fingers into the latch, squeeze latch to unlock and withdraw the glass window from the toaster.
        • Wash window in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.
        • Slide the window back into the window cavity taking note of the orientation marks on the latch.
        Note: For safety reasons the toaster will not operate without the inner window installed.

  • Also in black for $49 although that one doesn't have the additional 25% off.

    • +17

      Red one is faster but black heats up quicker

      • should we get one for work ? !

    • This was the price the identical stainless and black one was branded as Kuchef at Aldi, if they can make money selling it at 50 it makes you wonder how much Myers and DJs expect to make on their other stuff

  • +1

    Unable to find pick up in NSW ?

  • Correct no extra 25% for me either. Just realised because it's the black one.

    Waiting for Dyson to invent a new toaster…

    • +2

      Meh. I appreciated what dyson did to the world of bagless vacuum cleaners, but now they really are just too overpriced. I have a dyson, and I couldn't stand the overengineered idiotic wand design (rather than having everything just fluted to slide in, they had these floppy, sloppy, wobbly connections consisting of about 4 pieces per join (pipe, clasp, spring, collar). Hated a lot of other parts of it too, including the hose to body connection, the handles. At the time it was probably the first or second gen of bagless. My sister gave us one of those dyson air rings, or whatever they are, the fanless fans, and my god they are rubbish. She didn't want it. We don't want it.

      • I appreciated what dyson did to the world of bagless vacuum cleaners

        What was that exactly?

        I find bags a lot more convenient than bagless in any case.

      • Cheers, as long as they last a year or so, that's good enough I guess!

        • Mine have been lasting well over a year and i hammer them, consistent toasting across the bread, wide slot, cancel button etc. What else do you need.

        • I bought one of those a few months ago and they are very inconsistent in their toasting.. I am looking for a new one.

        • 1 year warranty. $19 for the 2-slice version.
          If it fails after that, buy another and you're still ahead.

      I have been using http://www.myer.com.au/shop/mystore/1600392 for 3 years now. Very happy with it.

  • Admit it, how often are you going to be sitting next to your toaster watching your bread get toasted?

    Sure, probably for the first few times to get the correct setting.

    • Like watching paint dry, perhaps?

      It's a useful feature when you try different breads. Not all bread toasts the same at the same setting.

    • I often take bread out to check and put it back in, would have to do that anyone so this would be convenient for me

    Ah the see-through toaster! Almost invented by Karl Pilkington…

      Don't be silly, there's nothing useful left to invent. Literally everything useful that can be invented already has been. The last useful item anyone invented was the frisbee.

  • Good bargain - I have this toaster - havent had any issues with it (yet)

  • $150 a toaster???? real cheap people. real cheap. Because money comes raining from the sky.
