## Description

desertcart.com Engineered in England and hand-assembled to the last detail, the Dualit 4-slice toaster is that ideal accomplishment--a hardworking kitchen appliance with an elegant presence. Its curvy retro shape is undeniably handsome and its structural components withstand the rigors of a high-octane kitchen. In fact, the toaster can output up to 130 slices per hour, should the entire neighborhood ever depend on you for breakfast or tea. The key to Dualit's exceptionally even browning is the toaster's system of patented ProHeat elements, a series of flat bars behind a smooth, transparent coating. The result is an efficient, durable design, suitable for everything from brioche to sandwiches. The elements are encased by a rugged, stainless-steel housing that you may not even recognize as a relative of its lightweight, plasticky peers. Each slot measures 28 mm wide and is extra deep to allow for the use of the Dualit sandwich cage (sold separately). One adjustable leg accommodates uneven surfaces and rubberized feet protect your countertop. The Dualit toaster has manually operated functions and is designed for people who like to engage with their appliances. Operation is simple but rewarding. A rocker switch selects 2- or 4-slice toasting, and a 4-minute timer knob lets you fine-tune browning time. Instead of a pop-up function that can prematurely cool toast, the unit comes with an ejector knob that you raise when you're ready for it. For smaller households or busy kitchens, Dualit also makes 2- and 3-slice models. All Dualit toasters come with a one-year warranty. --Emily Bedard Product Description Designed for commercial use with settings For bread, bagels and frozen items extra-wide slots accommodate large bagels and bread slices. Selector controls let you operate different slots. Defrost function makes it easy to thaw frozen food items. Variable controls allow a customized level of toasting. Pro heat elements maximize efficiency and offer long-lasting use. Insulated stainless-steel body for improved toasting efficiency. Removable crumb tray for easier cleaning. Compatible with the optional sandwich Cage (sold separately). ul listed.

Review: Perfect English Muffins - This toaster is an anachronism in our kitchen. It has a mechanical timer, a lever to raise and lower the bread, and a style that looks like it belongs in the 1940s. Quite a contrast from our 21st Century appliances with glowing digital readouts, touchscreens and computerized controls. I love it simply because it makes the best toast and english muffins that I have had in a long time. The secret is simple. It is very powerful. 1250 Watts is uncommon for a 2-slice toaster, but that is what it takes to make good toast. I have not been able to find a toaster this powerful in almost 2 decades. Don't worry, I can hold my hand over the top of the toaster while it is on and feel just a slight amount of heat. It is all focused on the bread. As for the toaster, it is rock solid construction and attractive in its own retro way. My wife is adjusting to the manual features. To make toast requires two extra steps. First, drop in the bread, lower the bread into the toaster by raising the lever and then turn the timer dial to the desired setting. Once the toast is done, the toast must be manually raised by pushing the lever back down. I prefer the 2 minute setting. My english muffin comes out brown and crispy on the outside and still soft inside. Just perfect. Bread toasts evenly and quickly. As with a toaster with this much wattage, toast can range from slightly warm to completely black on the outside. And the bread inside will still be soft. I'll take perfect toast over blue lights and automated gimmicks any day. 2024 Update I just used this toaster just now and it is still working great. It makes the best toast ever. I had to look it up- I bought my Dualit Toaster in March 2011. It shines up looking like new and still works like new after 13 1/2 years. Great investment.
Review: The only toaster NOT made in China, sold in the US - I’ve extensively scoured the internet for US manufacturers of toasters. They no longer exist because manufacturing small appliances like these is just more cost-effective in China. It may be true that nearly 100% of toasters are manufactured in China. I am making a concerted effort to buy American made products. There are many, many online lists and blogs/content creators claiming to link to US toaster manufacturers, but it doesn’t take much effort to research and find they are incorrect. All of these toasters on their lists are made in China. There is one exception: Dualit. While not made in the US, they are made by an allied country, not our chief socio-political adversary. There was one other small toaster, the Smeg, claiming to be made in Italy, which was a strong contender style-wise. However, researching their site confirmed the smaller appliances (like the toaster) indeed are made in China while their larger home appliances are made in Italy. I’ve had a chance to test the Dualit toaster, and thanks to Ian, the employee who hand assembled my unit (per the sticker at the bottom), I’ve been able to enjoy perfectly toasted bread with my coffee in the morning. It’s old school in the sense that it’s repairable, spare parts are sold at the manufacturer’s website for those skilled/licensed to repair these appliances. In the US there is a licensed repair facility in NJ to deal with if you have repairs covered under the lengthy warranty. It has a mechanical timer tied to the heating elements that is a change from traditional electric toasters. This thing is heavy, well-constructed, and an heirloom that will probably outlast me. Highly recommend this toaster if you are looking for alternatives to made in China toasters!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I wish all the home appliences are made like this!
*by S***M on June 26, 2004*

I purchased Dualit two slice toater when it was special sale with $99- at Amazon without paying S&H and I am very happy. A week before the purchse, I got Cuisnart toaster CPT180 and I was totally unhappy with that flashy looking tin can of stainless brushed finish. I was alittle worried about the lack of thickness adjustment of Dualit but it does not bother as much as I feared. The intensity of the heat is enough to do the quick job that seems to seal the moisture in. In other words, toasts come out crispy outside and moist inside. This toaster reminds me of 90's Volvo 240DL and MBS SL that the factories spent so much money for besic structures and invisible foundation. Nothing fancy yet very honestly and massively made while it did not offer fancy looking or features. But there is a quality you can see and feel when you touch as the time goes by. I tend to appreciate that kind of sane build quality instead of number of features. (I enjoy hi-end 2 channel stereo sound a lot more than 6.1 channel surround. I paid several times more for the products but hey! being just normal is very expensive! That is the way it is!) The simple old fashioned ticking timer of Dualit works perfectly so much more than the electronic sensors. It does not offer the bells and whistles that cost less for manufactureres to make. This it very sane, normal product, built with conscience, and built to last. Too bad some people do not see the value of it. I like the product very much.
