After receiving the toaster from AO.com to review, i'm rather impressed with it. Build quality is fantastic and it looks a luxury kitchen appliance. It's finished in a gloss black and stainless steel finish with white led lights that illuminate depending on what feature is selected. It has the standard dial gauge for adjusting the length of time the toast is in and also a defrost and bagel option. Check out my video review.

This is a very attractive 4 slice toaster from a brand known for their retro style kitchen appliances. It has a lovely high gloss finish and looks great on the work top. It is quick and easy to use having 6 browning levels,a defrost setting and a brown one side only setting. It also has a warm up feature in case your toast has been forgotten in the toaster. There is an easy clean removable crumb tray. Recommended cleaning is with a damp microfibre cloth so avoiding anything abrasive to minimise the risk of scratching. This toaster comes with a two yr guarantee and the option to purchase a croissant warmer that sits on the top of the toaster and a sandwich rack . Toasting is quick and easy and this is definitely one small appliance that needs to be shown off!

I have used this toaster on numerous occasions now and found it to be functional and easy to use. It has some great features such as defrost and reheat mode which is perfect for busy families. I also love that although it is a 4 slice toaster, it only has 2 slots. Because these slots are very large, they can fit in odd shaped slices of bread and it actually toasts the whole piece, not like some toasters! I like how sturdy this product is which I find quite reassuring and adds to the notion that this product is durable and of good quality. The toasters 6 different browning levels make it easy for me to make perfect toast for each family member. The only negative really (but it doesn't particularly bother me) is that the item is very large and may not be suitable for small kitchens. I also feel that additional items such as the sandwich rack should be included in the price. Finally, people may find it difficult to get small pieces of bread out of this toaster because the slots are so deep. However, I love this item and it looks amazing in my kitchen!

I bought one when they first came out unfortunately it just came out of its warranty when the heating element packed up so can only toast one side at a time then turn bread round. Searched for a element to replace it but can find for other makes but no spares for smeg. I still use it as I have the matching kettle and because it cost so much I can't bare to throw it away.

Really like the size of the unit (it is by far the biggest toaster I’ve ever owned) and the extra wide slots which accommodate everything from chunky bread to crumpets etc. The toaster looks great, has anti slip feet which keep it nicely hunkered down, and cooks bread evenly on both sides – even when I’m using only one slot and not the other. Features are a defrost mode, bagel mode and 6 stages of browning. Very happy, would highly recommend it!

Great style, size, able tidy and colour for me. It toasts - as expected, love the high pop-up Takes crumpets easily, haven’t tried anything more adventurous yet. I recall the sales images showed sandwich and warmer attachments though they were not included in my package so I guess they were optional purchase extras. Steep price for the brand, my previous cheapie toaster lasted 14 years so this one will have a lot to live up to.

I love everything about this toaster! I got both the kettle and matching toaster and they are great! Very stylish.. This is my third time using AO and will continue to do so!
