One side no longer working

published

Had this toaster for 3 years, a year ago the right side stopped working. Tried to return it to Harvey Norman but they wouldn’t replace as out of warranty time. Disappointing as now we have a half working toaster and can’t afford to replace it. Thought we were buying from a reputable brand!



Purchased in April 2018 at Harvey Norman for $100.

One sided toast

published

Beautiful stylish toaster
Easy clean crumb trays
Toasts only one side of toast.
Even though you can see element working inside toaster
Top of toaster has a lip and collects crumbs that are hard to clean
Originally brought the Morphy Richards kettle and toaster set but it had problems so went back and returned it and brought the Sunbeam kettle and toaster New York combo because of its stylish look and had a sunbeam toaster that had been amazing for 14 years.

Purchased in August 2020 at Harvey Norman for $275.

Second top end Sunbeam to last just over 12 months.

published

Thought twice that buying the highest cost available would equal longevity but unfortunately not, I'm sure many people are getting good service from theirs we just happened to be unlucky with Sunbeam. Otherwise good toast.

A very slow toaster

published

Definitely wouldn’t purchase this product again, actually hoping it dies quickly because I have to wait 5 minutes to cook a piece of toast in the morning. You can’t even cook a piece of bread evenly without flipping it multiple times otherwise one side never cooks

Heap of Overpriced Crap

published

An overpriced piece of crap that is so inconsistent, I've wiped the money off as a complete loss and gotten a Kmart toaster for a fraction of the price. Extremely disappointed.

Purchased at Harvey Norman for $90.

Terrible toaster

published

I bought this toaster only a couple of months ago
and have just returned it. Bread would either burn or not toast at all on one side. Looks can be deceiving! Won't be buying Sunbeam again.

Purchased in April 2022 for $79.

Disappointing

published

Looks great, but that’s it. Have had it 4 months and lever has just frozen. Prior to this, have had to have the setting on very high to brown toast, then next immediate use, will burn it. Before lever froze on LHS, last week the RHS elements weren’t working: one side would toast and the other would not so would have to flip the toast to toast both sides. Shame, as I thought I could rely on this brand.

Purchased in November 2018 at Myer Retail Stores.

After three failures this one actually look good

published

Having returned three toasters to Big W in 18 months we decided to look further afield and selected the Sunbeam Gallerie from Good Guys. First time it toasted four slices perfectly and has gone on going so for two month as I write. This includes frozen and raisin toast which it handles better than any previous toaster.
It's white so the printing stands out and the controls are simple and more or less fool proof. Nothing has jammed so far though we have not tried anything large yet like croissants. Yes I would recommend it on the evidence so far. As inanimate objects go I find it likeable.

Purchased in December 2018 for $99.

Worst toaster I've ever owned!

published

I can't believe in the year 2018 a toaster can be this bad! I have both sides turned up to maximum. Sometimes it burns the toast. Other times it barely browns the toast. Then there are times it only toasts one side of the bread...
Positives? It looks pretty. No more Sunbeam products in this home.

Almost great!

published

Fine looking toaster and incredibly it toasts evenly. Unfortunately after approximately 3 months one side stopped working. The manufacturer did agree to replace it but only if I rendered it inoperable by severing the cord. That in effect would leave me without a toaster for 1-2 weeks while I wait for the replacement to be delivered.

Hi Allen R. Sorry to hear of the issues you have experienced. have you received your replacement?

Allen R
Allen R

Hi, no I haven't because I'm still using the functioning side of my current toaster. A photo of the inoperable toaster is required before a replacement will be sent apparently.

Hi Allen R, we are happy to replace it for you but this is the procedure we have to follow.

Great product, toasts evenly & toast very quickly

published

Purchased this toaster online but only after reading reviews on this website & other reviews. I have Sunbeam kettle so not such a stretch to look at Sunbeam toasters. Toaster is very good, toasts evenly & is quick. Wanted the white sky & it looks good. Controls simple & very easy to use. I am more than happy with Sunbeam Gallerie Toaster & is value for money at price paid.
