I had the same one for 10 years; it was amazing, but it needed replacing because the non-stick coating had worn off. The new one seems to be made of cheaper materials, especially the plates. It cooks well and quickly; time will tell how durable it is.

I have had it for almost 8 years and it has more than paid for itself, it's just not perfect from a general perspective!!! It is worth the money.

I have it for 3 years. Good toaster with removable plates, but compared to an older and much cheaper one I had, it is somewhat slow.

The plates clean easily, but if cheese melts outside of them (the point where the plates close), there is a problem.

I have had the toaster for 4 years and it refuses to break down... I have 3 children and we cook over 10 sandwiches per week. I highly recommend it to all households. It toasts evenly, cleans very easily, has removable plates, and the quality-price ratio is amazing.

In 2 months, I tried to make a sandwich with three slices of bread and it broke on the back side of the hinge. It's a fake construction, basically. It only works for sandwiches and nothing else. It can't handle sausages or reheating a steak, possibly.

Very cheap construction, I've been using it for three days now and it still smells like plastic. Very slow, definitely not worth its money. Worse than the old one I have that cost 14 euros. It's a shame because it looks fine, but it's a waste of money for toast.

I have had it for 5 years and I am completely satisfied. The plates are removable, it is very easy to clean, and food does not get stuck between the plates and the frame. Its resistances are covered and are not visible when you remove the plates. The grilling is even and the cooking time is relatively good considering it is low in wattage (750) compared to larger ones that exceed 2000 watts. I have searched for similar ones and concluded that it is the best choice for its price. I highly recommend it.

I have had it for 7 years and I am very satisfied. The plates have started to deteriorate their coating and some residues stick in certain areas, but they have lasted as I said, 7 years. They are detachable and convenient for cleaning. It makes the toast crispy and evenly cooked as long as you do it correctly, and I will explain it immediately:
We plug it in and wait for the green light. WHEN the GREEN light turns on, it means that THEN it is ready to start cooking because then the plates have reached a uniform temperature.
Also, on the surface underneath the "Gruppe" logo, there is a small plastic piece that you lift and it stays at 90 degrees. I was curious why it has it and I discovered that when you open the toaster at 180 degrees like a grill, then it becomes a "foot" for it to stand on (see photo by clicking on the link). The truth is, I haven't used it as a grill

I had it for over a year, and it hadn't suffered the slightest. The plates, after so much use, hadn't been scratched, hadn't had any burnt food residue, and the coating hadn't been damaged. Until I made the mistake of putting the plates in the dishwasher. After 2-3 washes, the coating simply deteriorated and now the bread sticks. It is small in size, which makes it ideal for small kitchens or for storage. I mainly use it for toast. I'm thinking of getting a second one.

You just have to be careful because it is very powerful. Once the green light comes on, the toast is already ready...

Overall, it is a good toaster except for the fact that it takes too long to toast compared to other toasters. Other than that, it is value for money. It is important that it has removable plates that are easy to clean
