Daewoo 2 Slice Glass Toaster, Clear Viewing Window, Wide Slot for Larger Bread Types, 6 Browning Levels, Defrost & Reheat Functions, Removable Glass Panel for Easy Clean, Cool Touch Design

I really, really, like toast. Good toast. Lovely golden colour, evenly toasted, crisp on the outside, bread still slightly soft in the centre, allowed to cool for a moment... then a generous spread of butter. Mmmm! The best toast is made under a grill, but grills are too slow, expensive and energy innefficient for 1 or 2 slices. So toaster it is. For 50 years I have been trying to find the perfect toaster (not all the time but whenever I needed a new one, you know) - never happened, even the v. expensive ones couldn't match the grill. (Money wasted) How hard can it be? Most of the toasters I have had have found new and creative ways to mess up a simple task i.e. making toast - e.g. uneven, one side more toasted than the other, burnt or underdone whilst using the same setting, stripes, bread does not fit, (yes really) and my favourite - all of the above whilst launching your breakfast across the kitchen straight into the dogs mouth (savvy and waiting for it). So.. Old uneven toasting toaster dies - just outside warranty of course, I'm searching around and come across the Daewoo. OK.. looks intersting, like the looks and the avoidance of the tiny, v thin metal elements in most toasters, actually the elements look more like a GRILL! Intrigued. OK it's £30 lets give it a go. Arrives, (very quickly) put it on for 5 mins to burn in the elements. Then...Made a slice of toast.. WHAT? Halleluia! Magnifico! Excelente! Joy and Celebration! TOAST NIRVANA PERFECTION!! 50 years of toasting quests have been satisfied. Thankyou Daewoo - you geniuses! As you can probably tell I would recommend this toaster. In brief: Stylish good looks. Well made and finished Fits bread Makes REALLY GOOD toast Comparable to grill toast Its NOT SLOW - toast in under two mins. Actually OK to clean (for toasters) I note a couple of other reviewers have not had quite the same experience as me - this may be due to a faulty unit and I would recommend getting it replaced so you can enjoy a working model. My other recommendation for all 'toasties' out there is to hit the buy button.

Bought for my daughter and shes very happy with it she says toasted well and well made

This Toaster is a great looking piece of Kitchen equipment and being able to watch your toast slowly browning is amazing. It's also a good match for the Luukmonde Glass Kettle available here. There are a couple of niggles though. 1st - If you use normal Supermarket sliced bread, it won't do 4 slices at the same time, the tops of the slices stick out of the top of the toaster. If you can find a loaf with square slices that would work. 2nd - It has a crumb catcher, which you can easily empty. but there is a "ledge" on each side of the toaster that also catches crumbs , these crumbs are quite difficult to get out and having a glass front means you can see them. Even with these 2 niggles, we are very happy with the Deawoo Glass Toaster

Absolutely stunning toaster great value for money and looks the business 👍 well pleased super fast delivery, A*** seller highly recommend

It is truly the most awful toaster I have ever had. Positives: 1. Glass panel Negatives: 1. It’s HUGE! Granted I should have checked the measurements before buying, but I sort of expected it to be an average toaster size, it’s way bigger. 2. Mega-slow. Was replacing my old toaster which was starting taking ages to toast a piece of bread due to its age. This new toaster was taking even longer! 3. Inconsistent result - after ruining half of bread loaf, I had finally given up. On the same setting it was coming first underdone, then overdone, really annoying. Also leaving bits of toast completely white while other bits burnt. Literally every piece was different and you have to stand there staring at it waiting for the toast to get to the right condition. I have no time for that. 4. Misshapen toast - I the metal bits were not gripping the bread properly, leaving lots of space and so during the toasting process the bread sags slightly causing wonky toast and the inconsistent toast I described above. This could be actually due to the particular toaster I had: upon close inspection I realised that the metal bits were not coming together consistently: wider on one side and narrower on the other. I used medium sliced store bought bread. Conclusion: this toaster is absolutely awful and the glass panel alone is not worth it.

I must say I am very very happy with my toaster and the colour

A truly minimalist elegant 2-slice toaster which gives you more space on your worktop to work in front of it. It defrosts and toasts perfectly and its glass front matches very well my glass kettle. The controls face you and are not at the side as some toasters, so this is ideal for small kitchens where space is at a premium. My only niggles are that the instructions were for an earlier model which was confusing at first, and that I found it difficult to see the small indentation on the degree of toasting knob to align it with the marks around it. However, I solved this problem by sticking a self adhesive arrow on it as you will see in the photo. Otherwise, I thoroughly recommend this innovative toaster.

I was hoping to get a toaster that would take my nice Salisbury's brown bread slices (the ones with a huge bulge on the head) and it does (just) if you put 1 slice in. It will take 2 hovis white slice but they don't toast quite to the top if you stand them on end, so put one on its side and one in normal (two on their side wont fit!) gets you one completely toasted and one with a small white strip at the top. OMG, why is is it so hard to make a toaster that actually toasts bread sizes you can buy. Anyways seeing the toast brown is cool for about a week and helps you dial in the exact number you want for your toast. After which you really don't need a viewing window. The way it browns means you get even toasting on thicker bread, but on bagels or thin bread which seem to rest at a diagonal inside the slot they get a gradient of brown. Its killing my OCD to watch it :)

Love this but hard to clean inside.

Looks and performs extremely well, very pleased.

but it died after 8 months and no product support Absolutely the best toaster I have bought had to change the plug for Australia but is very good toaster

Toaster button doesn’t lock down and if I hold it down it only toast one side Heading for the bin
