Braun Toaster HT 1510 WH 2 slices

The smallest and cheapest toaster in the test does not toast significantly worse than more expensive devices. However, it shows weaknesses with the American Sandwich, which is ejected after a quick 2:15 minutes, with almost one centimeter of bread remaining white on the outside...

We put 30 toasters through their paces. 18 of these are classic compact toasters, which toast two slices at a time, as do 5 of the 12 long-slot models we tested.
