The Krups Toaster boasts a very simple look. Square shape and white, with no extra bells and whistles like colored lamps. By its simple appearance, it fits in every kitchen. It has been produced in China and before I toasted the first time I have 3 times heated him with open windows so that the plastic smell to escape. The cable has a sufficient length and can be wrapped under the unit to the designated clips. The warming rack can be folded on the machine and not removable, as with many other manufacturers, I personally like the variation in the Krups Toaster better. You can choose between 6 roasting stages via rotary switch. As an additional child safety and / or pet security there is a Stop button on the device, so that you can issue the toaster when not in use. The slots for bread or toast are sufficiently wide and the result was good, the toast at Stage 2 was nice and my crispy multigrain bread at level 4 also. I still have a toasted bun on the top, also here the result was satisfactory. For the warming rack has its own roasting and I have the bread (multigrain) as recommended in the manual once turned and toasted again. The crumbs button I can easily be removed and put back. All in all, a simple device with very good Röstergebnissen. All I need in a toaster. Especially because of the more than reasonable stop button I forgive like 5 star.
