5.0 out of 5 stars
Much better than your average toaster,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Breville CT70XL Ikon 2-Slice Electric Toaster (Kitchen)
This toaster has a few features that really stand out:
-Consistent Results. If your partner likes their bagel lightly toasted, and you like yours golden brown, you can both get what you want without any guesswork. -Digital Readout There is a digital readout that gives you unambiguous feedback. You can see at all times what darkness you have the toaster set to. It also gives you a little count-down timer so you know how long you have left. -Cancel button. You don't have to pry at the handle to cancel your toast. Of course, since you get consistent results, you probably don't have to cancel that often. -Toast-popup. If you do pull the handle up, your toast comes up for you to look at it without having to cancel the toasting. Just let go, and the toast drops back down to continue the cycle. -Audio feedback It beeps when your toast is done. Sometimes the pop-up sound can be lost over the sound of the coffee machine. The beep is much easier to hear. -More options I don't use. There are some more buttons in the front that I've not had to use. Defrost and warm, I think. I'm very pleased with my new toaster. I like over-engineered devices- devices where someone has thought of nearly everything and found an elegant solution. This toaster doesn't disappoint. Update, Aug 14, 2009: After two years of use this toaster is still going strong.

it looks good and importantly toasts well. Unlike many cheaper toasters that use a silly thermostat (thermocouple) system to decide when the toast is done, this toaster uses an actual timer (electronic). That means it will toast the same in a year as it does now. Thermostats used in cheaper toasters degrade over time until they're effectively useless. The only issue with this toaster is it tends to toast the upper portion of the slice more than the lower portion. If not for that minor issue, I'd give it five stars.

Impressed in Washington,

This review is from: Breville CT70XL Ikon 2-Slice Electric Toaster (Kitchen)
I too like the first review bought the toaster to match my juicer and didn't expect much.
This toaster surpassed any toaster I have ever used, even the top of the line import for Sweden. It isn't one of those toasters you need to pop down two times for thick bread. It has a lighted dial and it WORKS GREAT! Everything I have tried in the Breville line has been quality and worth every penny.
