Best Breville Toasters

We've owned two of these units, they're excellent, best toaster on the market as far as I'm concerned. Will buy again when required without hesitation if they're still available. Show details

This toaster won't , 'Brown you off ' . It will brown your toast though . Our last Breville toaster lasted for six years and worked well enough to… Read more

encourage us to buy another Breville .

After a good two months of use I cannot fault its toasting performance . Bread of all sorts is browned to an extraordinarily even consistency . The relative slowness of this appliance is probably why this occurs . Seriously I would much rather wait an extra half a minute for evenly toasted bread than get stripped or burnt offerings at express speed . It does fling the toast up at a sometimes alarming speed but I've yet to have a slice launch itself off the kitchen bench .

There are a few things that might be of consideration though . The crumb tray is impossibly shallow , so much so that anything over the size of a split pea won't come out easily . It's really back to the old days of tipping the toaster upside down and shaking it if you want to clean it properly . This is especially so if you have the odd raisin escape from fruit bread or buns . The 'Select ' dial is on the side of the machine , the other buttons and lift lever are at the end . Clearly the toaster was designed to sit with its back against the wall . If your bench space is limited and you need to sit it at right angles to the bench top the dial is not easily seen , neither is the crumb tray able to be removed without turning the unit .

Small considerations really .

I like it , a lot , it doesn't dry bread out , you can choose different settings for crumpets and other breads and it does make a difference , it's quick enough and is not so big as to make a statement on the kitchen bench . Yes there are cheaper toasters available , few are better though .

Little Bit More Toaster Needs an Upgrade – I have no idea what has happened to this toaster. My previous one was great, this one is not so great. Even on the highest number 6 on the dial + a… Read more

little bit more this is the results. So, if you are looking for a good all over toast browning forget this model. Overpriced and undercooks.

I brought the lift and look toaster because in my mind Breville was a quality brand. As it turns out out the toaster is terrible. Despite not… Read more

changing a setting the toast cooks differently virtually each time and often the bread burns. Just junk and Iam so disappointed ! I would strongly advise potential buyers to look for another brand.

Love this toaster, ended up buying the exact same one as a gift, and they love it too! Such a lovely looking appliance. Show details

Landfill maxing globalcorp – Elaborate landfill. Worked for exactly 12 days outside of the 1yr warranty and died like the exact same model we had (luckily that one died just… Read more

within warranty by a month).

Was ok when it worked (temp controll was inconsistent), but very soon dead. Nice to have just another company pumping low grade consumer trash into the country, what a time to be alive.

Don't this, maybe brevilles other products are better?

Our ToastSet started tripping our circuit breaker about 13 months after purchase. I asked Breville to repair but they don't do repairs. I asked them… Read more

to replace it as a quality toaster should last more than 13 months under Australian Consumer Law, but they refused. I asked how long they expect a Breville toaster to last and they refused to answer. In summary, they build junk that's only designed to last up until the warrantee period then they don't care.

Too loud – It looks good but the kettle is so incredibly loud. Show details

Stopped working in less than 12 months – The hold down function stopped working within the first year. Not great value from this $70 purchase! Updated with contact from Breville stating as… Read more
