Toaster
Good compact toaster. Wide enough slots but they are a little short for large sliced bread. For me it's perfect.

This review is for the item described as “2 Slice Toaster | 2 Slot Toaster | Extra Wide Slots for Thick Bread Slices English Muffins Waffles | Defrost Cancel Reheat Functions | High-Lift Easy Removal | Removable Crumb Tray | Black Silver [Energy Class A+++]”.This is definitely the smallest toaster I have ever seen, so is ideal for where space is an issue, eg, campervan, caravan, tiny kitchen.It does not toast bread very evenly. There are a couple of inches at the bottom of one side which don’t brown as well as other dead patches, so to get an all over toasted slice, it is better to set the toaster to a lower setting like 3, then once popped, re-present the bread after turning it. Although the toaster is tiny, the slots are wide, and as you need to turn the bread upside down, you can do taller slices than the slot. As each slice needs two goes, the defrost button is pretty pointless. The cancel button works well and all the buttons have a good firm feel to them.Another issue is that although there is a crumb tray underneath, the holes at the bottom for them to fall through are very small, so if there are any slightly larger pieces which break off, it is impossible to get them out without turning the toaster upside down which is not recommended.I have had expensive toasters of well known brands which develop dead spots necessitating re-presenting and rotating the bread for an even brownness so it doesn’t bother me particularly to have to do this, and if I needed a really tiny space-saving toaster, I would be happy enough to use this one but at the current price of almost £20, it is twice what I would expect to pay for the quality. I will keep this as a spare for when the toaster in the campervan dies.

There Are Better Products Out There
The first thing I noticed when I received the box, was how small it was. I initially didn't know that I had received the toaster, till I opened the box.So this is not recommended if you plan to toast... Bread.I could not find a single brand of common bread types (Looking at you... bread aisles in every shop) that made a slice small enough to fit into this.So what's it good for? Crumpets and similarly sized bread-like goodness.It weighs very little. This isn't inherently a bad thing, but is a nuisance when you need to touch the buttons, or push the lever... So it's a bad thing then. It moves around all over the place if you attempt to use this one-handed. When it's been running, it gets very hot. So not pleasant when you need to hold it with one hand, just so you can push a button.Does it work though? Yes.Worth buying? Nope... Unless you only toast crumpets and never touch it

Too small for bread, but great for crumpets
I ordered this toaster to use when we stay away at our holiday home, I needed a compact toaster that could toast crumpets and thicker slices of bread.The first thing I noticed about it was just how tiny it is, which leads to the only real issue I had with it, that an average sized slice is too tall, so you need to try to judge where halfway through is, and turn the slices over, that however means the middle of the slices are getting cooked twice, so it's impossible to cook them evenly. It does accept crumpets, and for those it's perfect as they do fit both width and height wise.It does take up very little room, so would be perfect for caravans, student accommodation etc, but I'm not so short of space that I can justify the extra work required to toast a slice of bread, so it's not a product I would recommend unless you're just toasting crumpet sized items.

Tiny won’t fit normal bread
Don’t waste your money it won’t even take normal bread without cutting the bread down 1st
