I selected my toaster by visiting a store and physically fiddling with the levers. From 20€ onwards, the feeling got noticeably better until 120€ price point after which it got worse. The range ended at 300€ SMEG(ma) toaster that felt like what it sounds like. I’m happy with my 120€ toaster.

What store are you shopping at that has €300 toasters??? How could anyone ever get that much value from a toaster???

You spent 120€ to toast bread! I don't think you get it...

Idk some people use their toasters multiple times a day, and at that point it can make sense to spend more on a better toaster

It's the best toaster apparently. Tbh I don't know why I would care about the feeling of the lever but at least they have the best toaster lever money can buy.

For that kind of money I would expect it to make, cut and toast the bread for me.
