This is an absolutely dreadful toaster. I like long slot toasters - but theyre rare - so after reading the favourable reviews for this I bought one to replace my unreliable Russell Hobbs Glass Toaster (see my review of that) but its hopeless - even considering I only paid £10 for it!

Its impossible to find the correct setting for toasting frozen bread. The instructions suggest the `star` setting at the top end of the scale - I imagine that would set the kitchen on fire! Even down as low as 2 the toast refuses to pop up before its black and the kitchens half full of smoke. Yet set it slightly lower at 1.5 and it needs three cycles to produce sufficiently browned toast. (This is all by the way with bread in both sides as the instructions require) Hence the only way to use it is manually, constantly checking to see if the toast is done. The instructions state that you can then cancel the toasting by lifting the drop lever - but you cant; theyre wrong - you have to turn the dial back to zero which despite what others say is nowhere near as convenient as hitting an eject button.

Its also annoyingly buzzes sometimes and despite what others say the sides get quite warm/hot. It also takes up more room than Ive conveniently got on the worktop.

Overall Im really disappointed that a reputable brand like Philips would produce such an awful toaster and Im now looking for another long-slot toaster - preferably a single slot version like the Russell Hobbs Glass version.

my last toaster lasted ten+ years...this one didnt manage 18 months before emitting blue sparks. Never did a good job of toasting anything either.

An excellent toaster which really does evenly toast whatever you put inside it and the outside stays completely cold. The main reason I bought this was because my disabled mother found that she couldnt manage either a button or lever to cancel the toasting, on other models Id bought. On this model she can quite easily turn the dial to zero and the toast pops up for her to check. The level to pop the toast back down is also a better shape for her hands.

This is a very unobtrusive toaster which is unusual for a 4-slice model. My last one was a monster and took up far too much valuable space in my small kitchen. Top marks to Philips and also Amazon for a great price.
