The knobs, levers and buttons on a Wolf are all great quality. The materials and build quality are what you’d expect from a professional level appliance. Everything is very durable, heavy duty and sturdy. The entire toaster is heavy and feels strong when you use it. The lever is tight and precise and so are the all the buttons and knob. Even the slide out crumb tray is very good quality and doesn’t feel cheap when you pull and push it. To find the best toaster for your kitchens at home, our pros grabbed seven brands—some high-tech, some basic and some that landed in between.

If you are looking for an appliance that will make you look like you know what you are doing in the kitchen and have the money to do it, this is the toaster for you. (Think Porsche in your garage!) However, if you are more practical and want a good toaster without breaking the bank, I think there may be better choices out there for you. I honestly do not think I would spend my own money on this particular toaster.

After toasting a lot of bagels we found the bagel setting produces just the right combination of texture and crunch. The cut side is toasted nicely with a soft and chewy outside of the bagel. You can’t achieve this with a regular toaster or toaster oven. Frozen Goods Let’s explore the advantages and disadvantages of both toasters to help you decide which one is right for you. This is because smeg is a more well-known brand, and their products are made from high-quality materials. One last notable characteristic of this toaster: It is heavy-duty.

Everything from the carriage that carries the toast to the knob felt like it would last for ages. This durability and performance make it worth the price.

High-Performance Blender

This toaster was one of our Test Kitchen’s favorites for many reasons, including the generously sized slots. At more than six inches long, you can easily toast long slices of ciabatta and sourdough without having any bread peeking out of the top untoasted. As for those slices of artisan bread, it came out perfectly toasted every time—no burnt toast here! The Wolf toaster did take a bit more time to toast up our bread and waffles, but our Test Kitchen thought the flawless performance was worth the extra 15 seconds of time. So your kitchen is all finished and the finishing touches are now being put in place, how about adding to your appliances a Wolf high-performance toaster, say goodbye to cold toast.

And can it make a simple piece of evenly cooked toast? Let’s find out ahead in our Wolf Toaster Review.

What I like

Excellent Toasting Performance: SMEG toasters are known for their exceptional toasting performance. Overall this is a fantastic toaster. If you’ve got the money for a premium commercial grade toaster then this is the one I’d buy. Wolf is a fantastic range manufacturer but does that translate to other kitchen appliances. Is the Wolf 2 slice toaster any good? Is it reliable? Are they worth the money? And can it make a simple piece of evenly cooked toast? The answer to all these questions is yes. This Wolf 2 slice toaster is a fantastic appliance that we highly recommend if you’ve got the budget for one. While they are expensive, they’ll last for years and have excellent resale value with very low depreciation. SMEG is a renowned Italian appliance manufacturer known for their stylish, retro designs. Their toasters are no exception. SMEG toasters come in a variety of colors, styles, and sizes. They also feature a number of convenient features, such as reheat, defrost, and bagel functions. In case you didn’t realize this, how your toaster performs has a lot to do with what you put in it. There is a ton of variation found in all baked goods and it effects how your toaster toasts the bread, bagel, waffle, muffin, etc.

Even the sturdy wide legs give the toaster a powerful stance. I really like how the legs are a flatter brushed metal finish. The contrast this makes next to the stainless steel is really nice. WOLF toasters are particularly well-suited to households that enjoy a variety of breads and pastries. The variable browning control allows you to customize the doneness of your toast, while the reheat and defrost functions come in handy for frozen bread. Very thin slices of bread can fall into a gap between the lift wire and side walls. Although this is so rare I can’t really fault the toaster for it. Even a standard size piece of white bread is too large to fall into the gap. But if you slice your own bread really thin it could be an issue for you.We also found a small variation when we toasted bagels from one of the local bagel shops. They’re also artisan made and hand shaped, boiled in water, and then baked. Each bagel is uniquely shaped and not uniform in size unlike what you’d find in your local grocery store or in most bakeries. Most of the bagels we tested, even freshly baked ones, toasted evenly. But this one shop did gives us some problems so it was probably due to the bagels odd shape and size. Very Slim Bread Slices For this part of the Wolf toaster review I have to give them some high praise. It would have been easy to put a cheap knob like most manufacturers but Wolf went the extra mile and matched what they use on their line of ranges. It’s a big plus if you have a Wolf oven and want to match the look and feel. Feet As you can imagine, we’ve tried and tested just about every professional kitchen appliances and gadget over the many years we’ve spent designing and building luxury homes and kitchens.
