I have always purchased Breville, simply because the Brand has always lasted ,and given no trouble. My last toaster was a Breville Ergo, and after at least ten years of daily service it is still going, but I thought it deserved a well-earned retirement. As I couldn't replace this model I purchased the Toast Select Luxe, and so far it is exceeding expectations. All the controls do what they are supposed to do, and very efficiently. Ask me again in ten years,if it was worth the cost,and if it lasted like the Ergo-Who knows?

My husband and myself have been looking for a bread toaster for some time. When we saw the Breville toaster, although it was dearer than the others, we liked the colors, the shape, and the quality that was obvious to see. Of course we bought it and when we took out the box we could but not notice how heavy it was, this gave us the confidence about the quality inbuilt into the toaster. We like the different features included, like the lever to choose the type of bread, the light to show the progress of toasting and when is ready. The toaster makes the bread crisps and very enjoyable to eat. Yes we know we made the right choice, and we are looking forward to enjoying it for a long time to come.

Toaster is easy to use, has a lot of useful settings and looks good.
