Ask any designer and they’ll tell you that attention to detail is the secret to an elevated kitchen. We spend hours mulling over our flooring ideas, countertop materials, and large appliances like our oven, but we very rarely give the same consideration to smaller appliances, such as our toasters. If you ask us, it’s these details that can really make all the difference to the quality of your kitchen, and that’s where British brand Dualit is top of its game.
It’s easy to brush off these smaller kitchen features as trivial and settle for a toaster that makes a subpar slice and lasts just a few years, but in 2023, we should expect a lot more. Like anything in our homes, our toaster should pair form and function for a beautifully made appliance that not only looks good, but makes great toast, too. Well, Dualit’s Classic NewGen Toaster - available at John Lewis & Partners - does exactly that and more. Sustainable, energy-efficient, and with quality guaranteed, it’s the countertop upgrade your kitchen deserves.
Why choose a Dualit Classic NewGen toaster?
A shining example of British manufacturing at its finest, Dualit’s Classic Toasters have been hand-built in the UK since the 1950s, and the Dualit Classic NewGen is top of their range. Made by skilled craftsmen, each toaster is built by one assembler from start to finish for the highest standard guaranteed - you can even find the name of the assembler who made your toaster on the base plate.
Available in both 2-slice and 4-slice sizes and a choice of colour finishes to suit every space, the iconic Classic Toaster will sit pretty in any kitchen and serve the whole family breakfast for decades to come.
But, however durable they may be, we all know things can go awry. While breakages and damage are almost inevitable, throwaway culture is a serious problem in our modern world. That’s why, thanks to Dualit’s circular ethos, the Classic NewGen toaster is made with fully repairable or replaceable parts so you’re safe in the knowledge your toaster really is built to last. (Plus you’ll be doing your sustainable part for the planet, too.)
If investing in such a durable appliance wasn’t enough, Dualit’s Classic NewGen toaster is one of the most energy efficient out there. In a unique selling point like no other, you can heat as many slots as you need depending on how much bread you’re toasting - one for a single slice snack, two or three for a hearty breakfast, or all four during a busy morning routine. It’s features like these that make the iconic Classic Toaster truly one-of-a-kind.
When it comes to the toast itself, you can trust Dualit to know a thing or two about making the perfect slice. Whether you’re partial to a light toast or a crispier, darker sear, unique ProHeat elements offer even browning on both sides and across the whole surface. Besides your standard toast, it also has a built-in bagel function that browns just the cut side and warms the other for an expertly toasted bagel that still stays soft. And, if you really want to up your toasting game, you can even buy a sandwich cage to further extend its range.
Far from a beige and boring snack, it’s time we all took toast more seriously. There’s no better way to do that while also giving your kitchen countertops a well-deserved upgrade than with a Dualit Classic NewGen Toaster.
The Dualit NewGen Toaster is available at John Lewis & Partners, with pricing starting from £169.99
