Dualit
Reliable, repairable, and quietly iconic. Dualit toasters and kettles have been hand-built in the UK since 1945, originally for busy commercial kitchens.

Toasters are even signed by the person who made them.
Sturdy, unfussy, and built to be fixed – not replaced. These are proper kitchen tools you’ll use every day and still count on years from now. Have a browse.
