I was always wondering in our world with such huge technological advances, why no-one has invented a really good toaster and I thought this was it, unfortunately not. The toaster is supposed have colour detecting technology which sort of works but only with plain white bread, doesn't work with crumpets, although I haven't tried it with raisin bread. It has a memory of the last toast setting which in reality is useless if the next time you are trying to toast something different. I've stored it away and reinstated my breville toaster which has settings for all type breads, don't know what I was thinking buying this.
