WMF Bueno Pro (870 W): what works, what doesn't?
What works well
- Cromargan stainless steel: Matt stainless steel housing from WMF, more premium and robust than typical plastic toasters
- Bread centring: Centres the slice automatically in the slot for even browning
- Known output: 870 W stated, toast up to 9 × 9 cm and baked goods up to 2.3 cm thick fit
- Defrost & re-crisp: Defrost function for frozen bread plus re-toast function for cooled toast
- Decent cleaning: Removable crumb tray and cable winder keep worktop and appliance tidy
Points of criticism
- Highest price in the field: From around €40 the dearest toaster here, you pay for brand and stainless steel
- Short cable: With 1 m of cable you need a socket near the worktop
- Only 6 levels: Six browning levels instead of the 8 of some competitors, but enough for most people
