De'Longhi Scultura Toaster Review

The De'Longhi Scultura Toaster is a stylish retro themed four slice toaster with an Italian design. It features a ribbed exterior, retro gauges for displaying the browning settings for each side, and chrome accents to complete the design. It's available in four colours, namely Black, Champagne, Grey and White. There's also a matching kettle available to complete the set and to coordinate your kitchen.

The features are fairly standard for contemporary toasters. They include a wide range of browning options, a quick and easy to use defrost function to deal with completely frozen bread, the ability to provide a quick blast of heat, a cancel button, a high lift to facilitate the quick and easy removal of small items such as bagels, a removable crumb tray, and more.

About De'Longhi

The De'Longhi brand is based in Italy. As is evidenced by the unique design of the toaster, De'Longhi have their own signature style. Other than toasters, they sell kitchen appliances such as kettles, coffee makers, coffee grinders, cookers, and similar.

Specification

The features are as follows:

• Browning Control - The level of browning is controlled through the use of a dial. The retro gauges display the browning level for each pair of slots. The browning control affects both the texture and colour of toast. The range on offer is quite large, so you're catered for whether you prefer a gentle crisp, or dark brown toast with a crunch.
• Defrost / Reheat / Cancel - "Defrost" allows completely frozen slices of bread to be toasted. "Reheat" will heat already made toast back up again. "Cancel" allows for the premature stopping of the toasting cycle.
• High Lift - Smaller items such as bagels will benefit from a high lift for easy removal.
• Removable Crumb Trays - There are two crumb trays underneath the toaster, one for each side. They are easily removed for emptying.
