For over sixty eight years, Dualit toasters have reflected an attitude that’s fundamentally
British. They are a symbol of the fact that it’s the simple things in life that are the most
rewarding and the most important.
Dualit toasters can turn out hundreds of crisp,
golden slices per hour. They are gleaming, sturdy
and tough as old boots. And as much a part of
British life as toast itself.
It should come as no surprise that the man who
invented the Dualit toaster was an engineer. In
1946, Max Gort-Barten produced the original
Dualit toaster from his workshop just off
London’s Old Kent Road.
Combining strength, versatility and ingenuity it
was a toaster that set new standards, soon
followed by a commercial toaster, incorporating
a time switch among its many (entirely) original
features.
Manually operated and designed for heavy-duty use, each Dualit toaster is a blend of the
simple and highly sophisticated. Each toaster is assembled by hand, much as it always was.
The assembler’s individual number will be found on the base plate.
In an age in which so much becomes obsolete overnight, the Dualit toaster is built without
compromise. It remains one of the few objects to survive the passing of the years with
grace and style.
