Bottom Line

Attractive and nicely put together, with a retro style. Its toast setting is a bit touchy, though.

Pros

Sturdy build. Toasts bread quickly and evenly, even when toasting several slices in a row. Defrost function is a nice touch. Stays in one place thanks to anti-slip feet. Available in various colors.

Cons

Larger than similar toasters, taking up more counter space. Tends to run hot, requiring a few “test” pieces of toast to figure out best setting.

Bottom Line

Well-constructed and attractive, with plenty of toasting options, yet its overall performance is so-so, with uneven toasting a frequent issue.

Pros

Fits bagels and wider breads without a problem. Features six browning levels. Specialty settings like defrost, plus a Euro-style setting that allows users to have their toast done on one side, the way Sting likes it. Available in multiple colors.

Cons

The control level is this Smeg’s greatest weakness, with a tendency to break after a short period of use. Heating elements are often not well-calibrated, leading to burnt toast at low settings.

Bottom Line

A beautiful exterior and reliable performance, though elements can heat up unevenly.

Pros

Self-centering racks keep bread or bagels positioned the correct distance from heating elements. Solid build with stainless steel control elements. Colors are accurate as advertised. Browns toast well, without dehydrating the inside of the bread.

Cons

Tends to toast bread more on one side than the other. Larger pieces of bread don’t fit the toasting slots comfortably. Removable crumb tray can stick a bit.

Bottom Line

A nicely calibrated toaster that will toast bread just as you like it. The exterior color can be somewhat variable, though.

Pros

Light-up button while toasting adds to retro vibe. Toast settings are very accurate with little calibration needed. Features removable stainless steel crumb tray.

Cons

Toaster’s advertised color may be off by a few shades, so don’t design a kitchen aesthetic before the unit arrives. Control lever may loosen and break after a few months.

Bottom Line

For big breakfast parties, this pastel, sturdy steel toaster makes a very functional centerpiece.

Pros

Preset programming for bagels as well as reheat and defrost settings. Extra-long, wide slots hold two bread slices apiece. Big bagels fit this toaster, too. Good control range on toast settings.

Cons

Heavy and large, this toaster will take up quite a bit of counter space. Removable crumb tray is just average.
