Reassuring

Saw them in reviews this morning, l like them but the durability (spares) of the Dualit swung the deal.

Something had been nagging at me (hashtag sad toaster bloke). Remembered whilst walking the dogs.

Nisbets sell a lot of Rowletts, which also fit your UK, premium, serviceable criteria. Usefully cheaper, too:

Whatever you don't drop it. However our Dualit is happily soldiering on complete with a cracked body.

If you do...make sure it falls butter side up

We used to buy pricey toasters, kettles and microwaves.
Then realised what a waste of money, cheaper does the job

Toast is a very serious subject.

My Aldi toaster blew up the other week while I was heating up poppadums in it. I think the oil off the things might've caused the problem.

As any fule no, poppadums should be bought 'raw' (about a quid for a pack of 30 or so) and cooked for a minute each in the microwave - no oil involved, and they crisp up a treat.

I think the toastable ones are called poppads. The poppadums were the ones in a plastic box.already cooked. I just wanted to crisp them up as i'd opened the box the day before and not bothered to air tight them in a plastic bag. The toaster had lasted about 18 months,so not bad seeing as it was only about £13 with a kettle as well.

Quite new then. I think I bought my dualit in 1897.

Aga and Dualit style victims are well known for mounting almost jihadist defences of their unfortunate retail choices.
