Breville Ikon

I've had the problem of the lever not staying down once. I hope it doesn't return. Otherwise I love all the features on my four slice model: lift & look, crumpet, and digital display. The beep is great; it means I can get the butter on ASAP so it melts.

Given as a wedding gift, had an issue from the start with not toasting both sides, tracked the recipe down from the giver. Took back unit replaced, same issue with next one. Took it back 3rd time seemed ok.. All that time and 1 month out of warranty...

Worked fantastic for about 4 months and then the problems started. Toasting uneven, setting do not produce constant result. Great looking unit but pity it does not longevity. Now out of warranty by a couple of months and the center element is dead....

I was lucky to get just over 12 months out of this over priced piece of junk before the lever gave out and wouldn't stay down. On top of that it when it did stay down, maybe 1 in 5 times it started blowing the fuse in my house. What a piece of junk....

I have the same problem as many reviewers. After 19 months very light use, the lever won't stay down. This means I have to stay with the toaster, holding the lever down, in order to cook the toast. Makes that whiny, annoying and LOUD buzzer at the end...

This is a cheap toaster (about $50) - 2 slices at a time and relatively small slices at that. (ie standard square loaf). Its primary function is to toast and it does that well. It has a countdown dial (a bit if a gimmick really) which seems surplus on...

This was a gift so unfortunately could not return it immediately. You would think toasting was an easy thing to get right, a $20 kmart toaster worked better than this. Very inconsistent results and often burnt on edges but not toasted all over. Makes...

Display of minutes setting playing up. Now 1, 2 or 8 or 9 work, nothing inbetween. I expected this product to last 5 years. Other than that no issues with even toasting or with the handle. This item was purchased from David Jones and is now out of...

Breville are clearly designing appliances that don't last and don't work. It doesn't toast evenly and pops up within 30 seconds even on an 8 setting. We contacted Breville who would not offer a repair nor replacement because an $84 toaster is expected...

I purchase this item 17 months ago from Brevilles factory ebay shop, this item only lasted 14 months before the handle will not stay down, it started not staying down every now and again and now its impossible. I rang Breville with proof of purchase,...
