I was a Dualit sceptic, think I'm being won over now. Expecting the ad to appear on NSC soon...
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Misc] Are Dualit toasters worth the money?
- Thread starter Bozza
- Start date
Just hoping that when [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] spends 300 quid on a toaster he doesnt plug it into that iffy power point you mentioned which will blow it up
Shite, forgot about that one.....

Toasters yes but I was meaning kitchen appliances generally.
For example, top of the range Smeg oven, nightmare to work on and clean, the door is a nightmare to get into. Cooks well. Expensive, fairly reliable.
Entry level NEFF or Bosch oven, mid priced, look fantastic, easy to use and clean, very reliable, cooks brilliantly and so well designed and user friendly,far better product in my opinion, but nearly every time I go to someone's house and they obviously have a lot of dosh they will have Smeg, Meile, Kitchen Aid, Dualit etc etc.
There are brands that are cheaper, look as good or better ,but more than often better, it's all in the brand name, people with money tend to want to tell the world about it.
I would not pay £500 for a food mixer (Kitchen Aid) for starters.

Don't know. I do know it's very easy to burn your toast if you're not paying attention. It's a bit like a car without ABS or traction control.

I briefly owned a self toasting toaster.
It wasn't the future.

Certainly not for the toaster.

Whilst browsing through Facebook last night, I came to one of the sponsored Ads, and it was for this exact toaster. Now I don't even look at NSC through my phone and don't use Facebook on this computer...
Is this just very, very strange or is [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] in cahoots with Facebook/Dualit and starting to hack into our brains and sub consciously buy toasters?

I've had my toaster for about a year. Only today did I notice that it was a Dualit one simply because I'd noticed this thread. My review for what its worth
- Yes it does Toast
- There are 4 buttons on. One is apparently a Bagel setting, I have no idea what the other 3 do
- It's much better than an Italian thing we used to have whereby the timer was intermittent and it toasted till the smoke alarm went off
- I've no idea how much it cost.. Knowing my Mrs, it won't have been cheap. The fact she never told me how much it costs also confirms that.

Whilst the toaster may have been expensive, it definitely comes as a runner up to this in the 'Most overpriced gadget in the Piggle household'

300 quid for a hair dryer. And is it quiet like it says on the tin? Is it Bollox.

Only on NSC could you get ELEVEN pages and rising on whether a toaster represents value for money
You don't think that they're having a debate about the virtues of a £170 toaster on, say, the Burnley messageboard?
[MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] Any decision yet?

A good blow job is worth every penny...
Even £300? That’s a pricey bj. Apparently.

My number one bugbear is the sound of the hairdryer. If I ever have a very rare lie in I can be woken by the sound of a jet engine taking off for what feels like a long haul flight to Singapore. Not for me Clive. My mistake in buying this though, was having a beer with a salesman who had bought one for his wife and said it was the 'best bit of kit he's ever seen and dead quiet' So I bought one for crimbo and crumbled in dissapointment when it made more noise than the AMEX at the end of the Arsenal game.
As for a blowie, all blokes should know that never comes when you buy a present with a plug. Perfume and shit is where that's at.

It's my birthday today (no, really - there's no need) which has seen my Amazon gift balance swell nicely.
I might now take the plunge for a Dualit toaster, but which is the one to go for? I want one of the big steel 4-slice efforts but there seems to be a fair few variants, as I think this thread revealed.

I've got an oven toaster, which most people seem to have over here and they're very useful as you can toast more than just sliced bread.

I used to have one of those but I ditched it once I found out how efficient these Japanese fish grills are at making toast.....
Seriously, shove a couple of slices in there....done in under 2 mins. You have to watch them like a hawk though cos the bread goes from "starting to brown" to "setting off the smoke alarm" in the space of about 20 seconds.
