Salter Vega Toaster Review

The Salter Vega Toaster is a sleek and stylish modern two slice toaster with a metallic champagne (light pink) coloured exterior. It has a silver band around the top, with elements of grey underneath and around the slots for added effect. The buttons and dial are dark grey, and bring the design together.

The Vega Toaster has the features expected from modern toasters. There's a wide range of browning settings to allow for optimal colour and texture toast. The internal slot guides are designed to self-centre and therefore allow for an even brown. The slots are extra wide to allow for larger items to be toasted, e.g. bagels. There's also a defrost function for convenience and a removable crumb tray for an easy clean up.

Specification

We now take a look at the features:

• Browning Control - There are seven browning settings, ranging from a crispy light brown to a dark crunchy brown. You can therefore make your toast the ideal colour and consistency.
• Auto-Centring - Whatever you put inside of the toaster, the guides will automatically centre to help provide an even browning.
• Extra Wide Slots - The toaster is built with extra wide slots. It can therefore fit larger slices of bread, bagels, crumpets and similarly shaped items.
• Defrost / Cancel - "Defrost" will quickly toast bread from the freezer. No longer will you have to get bread out well in advance. "Cancel" stops the toasting midway.
• Removable Crumb Tray - Beneath the toaster is a tray designed to collect crumbs. It slides out to allow for quick and easy crumb disposal.
