Kenwood TT940

A 4-slice toaster with 2 sides that operate independently of each other, the Kenwood TT940 is a semi-professional model that features a simple but sophisticated design in brushed steel and cream, plus a list of great features for around £99.99.

Hard-wearing and practical in die-cast aluminium, it weighs 5.1kg and is built to handle heavier usage levels. At 19.7cm x 22.6cm x 30.8cm, it’s quite a large appliance and has the power to match its size; 2200 watts to be precise. The elements are serviceable, allowing you to prolong the life of the toaster. A removable crumb tray is included for easy cleaning.

One of the outstanding functions of the Kenwood TT940 is the 32mm deep slots, which are also extra-wide, long, and allow for both bakery and store-bought bread to be toasted simply and evenly. You can check on the progress of your items throughout the cycle thanks to the ‘peek and view’ function’. A sandwich cage enables you to cook toasted sandwiches quickly, with no mess or fuss.

There’s a frozen bread setting that allows you to defrost bread before toasting, and the keep-warm facility means you can enjoy hot toast whenever you’re ready for it. Remove smaller items safely with the high-lift function. There’s also a digital countdown system so you can see how long you have to wait until your pieces pop up.
