A new toaster was needed after the old has given up the ghost after x years. I wished: - Crumb tray, - Integrated bun warmer (no extra piece) - Cancel button. Furthermore, he should be well insulated from the outside. On other electronic gadgets functions, as they have many Toaster now, I would rather do without. - Sounds simple, but it's not. I have quite a long sought, both in stores and here on Amazon. This Siemens toaster meets all above requirements. Particularly positive as has been pointed out here is a review that he really hardly stinks at startup (like apparently many others). A tiny bit uneven he toasts, down towards the middle of the toast is a bit darker. But this is so minimal that there is no penalty for it. For me it's the perfect toaster at a fair price, not overpriced as some others. I hope he does well again x years his ministry.
