What Mistakes to Avoid When Buying a Toaster: Practical Tips
A toaster is one of those household appliances that saves us time and makes preparing breakfast much easier. It is especially comfortable if you have children; you can quickly prepare sandwiches or toast bread. A properly selected toaster makes breakfast even more delicious. However, many nuances hide behind this seemingly simple device. Many people ask: what is the difference between a 99 GEL and a 390 GEL model? What functions should you pay attention to, and which model is really suitable for you?
At Contact Home, we help people make the right choice every day. In this article, we will try to discuss each model in detail and simplify the buying process for you, whether it is a classic, multifunctional grill toaster, or a specific shawarma toaster.
What Determines Toaster Quality and Why is Power Important?
The first thing we see in technical specifications is power. In our catalog, you will encounter models ranging from 800 W to 1000 W. Many think that the higher this number, the better. This is partially true; a high-power Franko toaster or a Philips model heats the elements much faster, which means the bread becomes crispy on the outside while retaining softness on the inside.
In the case of low power, toasting bread takes more time, which often causes it to dry out. If speed is important to you, we recommend choosing 900-1000 W models. However, for small families where speed is not decisive, we think Ardesto or Cecotec appliances with 800-850 W power will be completely sufficient.
Body Material: Metal, Plastic, or Combined?
When choosing a toaster, the visual aspect is the first thing that catches the eye, but the material also has a practical purpose. Toasters in Tbilisi are mainly found in two types: stainless steel and high-quality plastic.
A stainless steel body, often used by DeLonghi and Kenwood, is distinguished by durability and a premium look. It blends perfectly with large household appliances, such as modern refrigerators or gas stoves. However, the metal surface gets hot during operation, so if you have small children at home, a plastic body might be safer for you. Modern plastic, used by Tefal or Electrolux, is thermally insulated and always remains cool on the outside.
How to Choose a Toaster Based on Functionality?
A grill toaster allows you to prepare delicious sandwiches, while a shawarma toaster is ideal for preparing products wrapped in lavash: wraps, healthy and homemade shawarma. And if you want to prepare sweet waffles or pancakes, the waffle toaster available in our catalog will be an ideal purchase.
We also have toasters with a Defrost mode, which is a priority for many customers.
Why is the Franko Toaster So Popular?
On the Georgian market, the Franko toaster enjoys special trust. The reason for this is its diversity. The brand offers customers both compact models and large toasters, which is especially convenient for large families. When a customer is looking for quality at an affordable price, a Franko toaster is an ideal choice. Its mechanism is simple, and the body is sturdy.
How to Care for Your Toaster?
The biggest problem is food residue accumulating in the appliance. If you do not remove it regularly, it will start to burn, which causes an unpleasant smell and may even damage the heating coils.
Also, for safety reasons, never use metal objects (a knife or fork) until you unplug the appliance from the power source.
In the case of a grill toaster, clean the surface with a soft sponge so as not to damage the non-stick coating.
How to Make the Perfect Sandwich at Home?
If you are using a grill toaster, spread butter very thinly on the outer side of the bread (which directly touches the plate). This will give the bread an extraordinary golden color and a special aroma.
And if you have a shawarma toaster, the main secret is not to overdry the product. 1.5 - 2 minutes at maximum temperature is enough to get a crispy surface and a juicy filling.
