Decent Toaster?

Hi all

I'm looking to buy an electric toaster 2 or 4 slice that can take the full size bread and one which has a coolwall and toasts both sides of the bread evenly.
Looking at various pages on the net for advice is a minefield and if anyone has a decent toaster that meets my requirements and at a reasonable price I'd be most grateful if you could up the details here. Many thanks.

  • Not particularly coolwall, but Dualit toasters are excellent in all other respects. Not cheap though, but mine has been bomb proof over many years (and you can buy spares if necessary!)

    Don't forget the marmite. :p

    I also second Dualit. They do a cheaper range too, they are about £60.

    Wish their kettles were as nice as their toasters.

    If you go for Dualit get the one with wide slots and cradle things for toasted sandwiches.

    Given this is an IT board it seems only reasonable that I should mention the USB powered toaster:
