I did a lot of research before choosing the Smeg toaster. There weren't many reviews of this model to go on, so I was a little nervous spending so much for something that seemed to have very little market presence in the U.S. Fortunately, my bet seems to be paying off thus far.
Although this toaster is quite expensive, it does a good job toasting a variety of breads. It takes time to get to know how to use it properly, and I've found it interesting to go up the learning curve trying to get the best results with various shapes, sizes and types of bread. The main challenge has been setting the browning level so that the bread surface toasts without the edges burning. I've had my smoke alarm go off a couple times as I've failed at that maneuver, but I'm slowly getting the hang of it.
My only quibble about this toaster is that it can be a little hard to get the bread out once it is finished toasting. You'll need a pair of wooden tongs to go with this model, or the dexterity to turn 2 wooden spoons into a makeshift pair of tongs. Also, watch the "chrome" surfaces on the toaster -- they scratch quite easily so you shouldn't put anything even slightly gritty or abrasive on top of them.

Not your smegular toaster!
I’m not going to lie. I 100% bought this for athletics after purchasing the coffee maker. It doesn’t have any special features that my box store toaster didn’t do but the quality is amazing. I’m no toast connoisseur but it seems to toast evenly and everyone that enters my home comments on my Smegs. I need the tea kettle next!

If a toaster can be luxurious, the SMEG is it.
Everything about it is of superior quality.
The retro style works with any interior and the color choices are very pleasing.
Would recommend to anyone looking for a high-end appliance.
