Russell HobbsRussell Hobbs 2 Slice Toaster with Perfect Toast Technology for improved evenness (Wide slots, Lift & look feature, 6 Browning levels, Frozen & Cancel function, 850W, Brushed & Stainless Steel) 24080

Great value. Ideal size.

Nice looking toaster and very well packed so arrived in mint condition. A little disappointed that despite the 'technology', it does not toast evenly as one side of the toast is exactly what I wanted but the other side is much less browned. It is certainly much better than the one it is replacing and apart from that one observation I am very pleased with it. The extra features of being able to lift the toast to check it's colour and the reheat feature are very good. I would recommend this toaster and hope it lasts for a long time, unlike others I have bought

Well the box was perfect which is always a good sign.Brushed steel looks great but be warned this gets VERY hot, so be careful with young kids around.Toasts really evenly all over for a perfect toast, be sure to use the toaster a couple of times WITHOUT anything in it just to prime the elements and burn off any oil from the production line. This will smell a bit, but it's totally natural.To pop the toast up early the button is actually on the end of the knob that you turn to adjust the browning time (this confused me till I found it), just press it in and it ejects the toast.For frozen bread there's a button you can press which basically adds around 30 seconds to the timer to allow for the defrost, so you don't have to adjust the knob.The reheat button also works well, I'm sure we've all put some toast on and then been distracted by something, so this is a nice touch.I like my toast close to burnt and setting 4 achieves this nicely.I would personally leave the sticker on the toaster (picture of a toasted slice of bread) as I tried to remove it and it started to tear, so it will leave a mess.All in all for £24 you can't go wrong.Ps,,,,, be sure to register your warranty on line, this will give you an extra 1 year warranty, so that gives you a 3 year warranty!! Which is excellent.Great buy for my marmite on toast!

Lovely toaster, even toasting on both sides of bread in either slot, feels solid and enduring.

A good enough toaster old fashioned looking but very slow. The toast when it is ready is ok. The slowest toaster that I ever had

The toaster is well designed and attractive. It delivers a good even toast and the lift-up mechanism during toasting is a bonus. Other reviewers have mentioned the slot size. Width of bread is great and will easily take half a bagel. However, the length and height are on the small size.

There are many mixed reviews of this Russell Hobbs Stainless Steel 2 Slice Toaster but for what it's worth, here is my humble opinion of a great little toaster.The look and finish is clean, stylish and with the exception of an annoyingly large, 'Improved Toasting Evenness' sticker on one side, (plastic, no tearing and peeled off easily), arrived free of any 'rust' marks, scuffs or fingerprint, as some buyers have reported. The only negative point to make is the very short mains cable which is designed to 'exit' the base of the toaster by a choice of three retaining clips, one for each side and one at the end opposite the lever. Depending of which clip/direction you feed the cable, as the the photo's show, the cable is very short. Standard depth plug.Toasts extremely well without taking too long and making the toast too dry; (picture = no 4 setting).
