Customer Reviews

Morphy Richards should be able to do better.
They were one of the first manufaucturers of electric toasters in the UK 60 years ago so you would think Morphy Richards would know better than most how to design a good toaster. With the "Essential" toaster however, they have designed a toaster with a large stainless steel top (with narrow slots for the bread) which gets so hot you burn your fingers. There is no lifting device so, if you're toasting buns, you have to dig them out with a knife. The top of the toaster is inset into the plastic case with a groove all around down which all the crumbs get stuck. I hope for Morphy Richards sake that the designer responsible for this was on a temporary contract...

It broke almost immediately!
This toaster did exactly what it was supposed but it broke within a couple of weeks. Amazon did very kindly send a replacement one out but they didn't keep me informed that that's what they were doing when I emailed them. Service good, not brilliant communication.

Does the job.
This toaster is ok. The rack for heating a roll or a croissant works a treat. I was disappointed that the hi-lift facility doesn't make much of a difference (I'm still poking small things out with a knife!). The markings on the dial are silver which reflects the light and makes it difficult to see the numbers. There seems to be a marked difference in the browning of both sides of the toast, however, I just give it less time, turn it and put it back down for a sort time. It does the job.
