Which low-wattage toaster?

[SillyBilly]

We like our toast especially on holiday and I cant stand grilling one side at a time on a gas cooker! Can anyone recommend a good, cheap, light low-wattage pop-up toaster?

Hi

So there are suitable toasters out there at bargain prices! I will have to look harder. The cheapest one I can find in Argos is

Hi, We recently just bought a cheap 2 slice toaster from tesco

http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.203-2249.aspx
it works brilliantly and fits in the over head cupboard in the van so it doesnt take up work space when not being used.

We did own a 12v toaster but it took so long that by the time the toast was finished we had finished breakfast !!

I cant find on the website how much power it uses but we have had it toasting with the water heater, kettle, halogen awning heater on 10 amp EHU and it didn't trip so obviously doesnt use a lot of power.

Hope this helps

Ian

Ours was from Sainsbury, from their cheap range (Basics? Essentials? I can't remember.) It cost less than a fiver, is fairly low wattage (450W, I think) and works a treat. At all cost, avoid the expensive ones you see in caravan accessory shops: they are just the same as the supermarket products, but with a huge mark-up.

I bought one from Woolworths last year for a fiver - works really well, even off the generator !!
