For the distinguished carb loving gentleman who prefers his toast to come from a more exclusive appliance than the proletariat. Mine hasn’t arrived yet.

I think I like it better this way than the mainstream silver plastic and unreliable electronic controllers that don’t survive my buttery fingers. But proof is in the toasting. I’ll report back.
Agreed, these look like Dualit Toasters. They've got a timeless look. High quality slightly industrial look.
It turned up today, It is a solid piece of gear and looks the business on the bench. Couldn’t be happier.
from looking at the site they sell commercial gear. need a 10 slice toaster?
I want a toaster with individual controls per slot. Am I asking for too much!? Toasters are also fairly simple tech. Anything over priced is just porsch-ing it!
Had that, last toaster had a fruit toast, crumpets, lift and look….it was ok while it worked but then it didn’t . I’m going to try to simplify and just stop toasting it when it’s done.
Or use the Thermomix.
This does that.
It does but not with great flexibility. I want a push-down per slice. What happens if I put a slice in and then a family member places a pop tart in 1m later - you can't. There ain't no option. Think about all the toasters in the world people use with 2/4 slot toasters that people only place 1,2 or 3 in when that other slot(s) has nothing.. wasted electricity and it's such an easy fix. Appliance makers are just plain dumb!
Wow I’ve never had a pop tart so this is not a situation I’ve found myself in, and I’m more likely to be toasting the same thing for 4 than four different items at slightly staggered intervals.
What you are describe sounds great but I would find it annoying for my use case and it’s more likely to fail earlier due complexity.
You can turn on 1,2,3 or 4 slots so energy wastage is optional.
@vidiot: Is that a glass half full or empty line. I like it!
If you got no food issues like gluten, wheat or soy (or to GMOs) try the brown sugar cinnamon - it's delicious but I do remem it tasting better when they first came out. The fragrance out of the toaster is alluring. I don't know what it is about apple, cinnamon and sugar but it's such a homely combination.
That's one expensive toaster.
Under 'Useful documents', you can download an 'exploded view diagram and spare parts list'… interesting.
Yes was about to post the same thing, this is almost more interesting to me than the toaster, I've added the toaster and a bunch of spares to my cart… jsut not sure I like the $30 postage to WA…
…why would you buy spares?
To build an even better toaster??
to have spares
why would you buy spares?
Because the spares make the original parts feel threatened, so the original parts will refuse to break.
Note this toaster doesn’t “pop”.
When finished, it goes ding, and waits for you to lift the toast.
This brand actually invented the electric toaster, and has a good reputation for durability and spare parts for repairs.
I like the look of the boxy, prison/hospital issue one they sell, but it is $300!That's amazing to know they originally made the first electric toaster. I thought, "That sure looks like a boxier Dualit".
Looks like for industrial/ commercial use!
I purchased. A large amount of bench space is required, but worth it.

Thanks got one for work!
I bought this last week. It's not at all cheap plastic, it's built like a tank. It's huge. It is also disappointingly slow, but on the plus side it'll probably toast slowly for 10 years and be fixable rather than landfill
Makes nice even toast though
I emailed them wanting to know when my toaster would be delivered, finally got a reply "This item is no longer in stock and won't be in the future. We have gone and cancelled the order for you".
Anyone else get cancelled?
I rang them and got cancelled to. I asked what would happen if I didn't call? Would it just sit at pending indefinitely?
"pending indefinitely" lol, yep probably. Prior to mine getting cancelled I got a few emails and a phone call to confirm my address for delivery, so that department was very efficient. After that no one responded to my emails until I finally got a cancellation email. So disappointing, I was looking forward to a toaster that actually toasts evenly, which I believe this does, albeit very slowly.
Yeah. I'm never ordering from them again. Terrible service and no contact to let me know. I'd be interested to know how many people here got one.
Looks kinda cheap no?
Exposed screws and abs plastic knobs etc.
