I have a simple list of requirements for a toaster... it should:
1: Accept a full sized slice of bread i.e. Warburton, and toast all of it, not all of it, except a 1" strip at the top.... all of it.
2: Have a lift mechanism that allows you to lift a crumpet or hot cross bun high enough to be removed without burning fingers.
3. Have more than the usual "Burnt or Raw" settings.
So far I've never found a toaster that manages to do all 3 properly... I live in hope.
