Russell Hobbs 26210-56 Attentiv Toaster

Although coming from the British homeland of white bread toasting, the Attentiv leaves a mixed impression. The toaster unit is mounted on a base plate, which also houses the control via membrane keys. Nevertheless, the device sways precariously when bumped. A larger half of a farmhouse loaf fits into the two wide slots, and a sandwich can also be completely submerged in it...

The biggest special feature of this toaster is the Colour Sense function, which independently determines the optimum toasting time. Unfortunately, this is not completely reliable, and the toast can also burn quickly at the highest browning level setting; it is also often browned unevenly. Nevertheless, you don't have to wait long until they are ready; the model works very quickly.

The Russell Hobbs Attentiv toaster with a brushed and polished stainless steel finish with black details not only looks chic, but is functional throughout and convenient to operate via the touch control panel. Whether Coulour-Sense technology or time-controlled toasting - the results are very good and reproducible in each case...

The Colour Sense technology promises consistent roasting results even after many roasts. However, practice is needed here, because the toasts quickly become far too dark, even at low settings.
