A design icon and likely the last toaster you'll ever buy. Backed by over 60 years' experience and hand assembled in England (with the individual assembler's mark on the base), Dualit Vario toasters have a polished stainless steel casing and feature time-controlled variable toasting, extra-wide slots for all types of bread, energy-saving individual slot controls, keep warm facility, pull-out crumb tray and patented ProHeat technology which increases the life and efficiency of the elements. And yes they're expensive, but all parts of these environmentally responsible toasters are repairable or replaceable - you don't throw them away. And they make great toast!
