Our tefal lasted two years. Then there was a loud band and one slot was dead. There is a small hole for crumbs to fall through, in to the crumb tray but it's too small. Unless you empty the toaster of crumbs by shaking it over the sink, regularly, this will result in a build up of crumbs at the bottom of the toaster. This gets really hot and burnt on - the element will blow. Needs better bigger holes for crumbs to drop through.
The toast was ok - a bit uneven and the slots could do with being deeper.
On the upside, it is fast and the controls are big and clear.
