Tower Bottega Toaster Review

The Tower Bottega Toaster is a stainless steel two or four slice toaster with rose gold accents. It's available in three colours, namely Black, Marble and White, so there's plenty of opportunity to match it to your kitchen. It has that classic Tower look, and is designed in a more traditional style, as evidenced by the design of the dial knob, and the gauge.

Despite the traditional look, the Bottega Toaster has plenty of modern features. It has six choices of browning control, allowing you to find the setting most in-line with your preferences. It also has a defrost button to toast bread from frozen which is incredibly handy, particularly if you've forgotten to defrost bread beforehand. It also has a quick reheat function, a cancel button, variable width slots, self-centring for an even brown, a removable crumb tray, and more.

About Tower

Specification

Let's look at the features:

• Slots - 2 Slice or 4 Slice.
• Browning Control - There are six variable browning options, ranging from light brown and crispy to dark brown and crunchy. The four slice toaster has a separate dial for each pair of slots.
• Defrost / Reheat / Cancel - These are the usual three buttons which modern toasters have. "Defrost" is useful for toasting frozen bread, without making it soggy. "Reheat" gives a quick blast of heat without starting a full cycle. "Cancel" stops the toaster mid-cycle.
• Variable Width Slots - The variable width slots allow for a variety of bread sizes. From thin bread to home made artisan thick cut slices, this toaster will accommodate. The four slice toaster has a second set of these controls for the other side.
• Self-Centring - The self-centring guides will help give your toast an even brown.
• Removable Crumb Tray - There's a removable tray underneath the toaster which is designed to collect crumbs. The four slice toaster has two of these trays.
• Integrated Cord Storage - Excess wire can be stored inside of the toaster.
