I had already received the concerns that I find no suitable Toaster under 30 EUR, more I wanted to spend in any case. There was always something to complain about, a user was even convinced that although mankind go to the moon, but can not build a good toaster! The Severin was ultimately the product of my choice and - surprise: He toasts toasts! For this he needs some time. For people who perhaps toasted a bit too long at your table. For us, ok, we toast cover front of the table. The toast slices are evenly browned, also ok. Only minus: the cord storage is unsuitable, I ask the responsible development engineer me to explain their use. Would buy the product again, because the price is very cheap!
