TOASTING SINCE 1945
For seven decades, 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.
