Dualit 2 Slice NewGen Classic vs Cuisinart SimpliTouch XL 2-Slice

The Cuisinart SimpliTouch XL 2-Slice and the Dualit 2 Slice NewGen Classic both offer very good performance, but there are a few key differences to consider if you’re deciding between them. The Cuisinart offers a little more room for longer slices, toasts more evenly, and has a touch screen with a few quality-of-life features, like a +15 seconds button. The Dualit, on the other hand, toasts faster, which helps your baked goods stay soft in the center, and it does a better job keeping crumbs contained. In contrast to the Cuisinart, it’s a low-tech option. It still provides a range of useful features, but they’re analog versions, like its wind-up shade selector dial. The benefit of this design is that it’s easy to replace broken components at home if you want to extend your toaster’s lifespan.
