Russell Hobbs Toaster

Highlights

- ✓ Frozen, reheat and cancel functions
- ✓ Wide slots with a high-lift feature
- ✓ Removable crumb tray, low price
Our take
For a good, cheap toaster the Russell Hobbs is the sensible buy: browning is even, the essential frozen and reheat modes are there, and it costs a fraction of the design toasters. It won't last a lifetime and the build is plastic-heavy, but for everyday toast on a budget it's hard to fault.
