At a glance
This 4-slice long slot toaster is a strong fit for busy households that want flexible settings for different breads, from white and grain to rye and crumpets. Its key strengths are the six bread presets, Lift & Look, A Bit More and clear LED progress display. A limitation is that it focuses on smart toasting control rather than ultra-compact size for very small kitchens.

Things to consider
It offers strong bread-setting flexibility and useful convenience features, but premium alternatives may add more specialised controls or a more compact footprint for tighter benchtops.
Family suitability score
9/10 - 4-slice capacity and broad bread presets make it well suited to busy family breakfasts.
Ease of cleaning rating
8/10 - removable crumb tray supports easy routine cleaning.
Small kitchen fit
Moderate - long-slot 4-slice design offers versatility but takes more bench space than compact 2-slice models.
Bread type versatility
9/10 - extra-long slots plus 6 bread presets make it highly adaptable across everyday and specialty breads.
Key benefits
- 4-slice capacity: Toasts up to four slices at once, making it better suited to family breakfasts and larger batches.
- Extra-long slots: Fits longer slices and artisanal breads more easily than standard toaster slots.
- 6 preset toast types: Helps tailor toasting for white, fruit, brown, grain, rye and crumpets with less guesswork.
- Variable browning control: Lets you fine-tune colour and crispness to match personal preference.
- Lift & Look function: Allows you to check progress without cancelling the cycle.
- A Bit More button: Adds a little extra toasting time when bread needs a final top-up.
- LED progress indicator: Shows the countdown clearly so you can see how long is left at a glance.
- Removable crumb tray: Makes routine clean-up simpler and helps keep the benchtop tidier.
Q: Will the long slots fit sourdough or artisan bread slices
A: Yes. Breville Toast Select has extra-long slots designed for artisanal bread, so it suits longer slices that can overhang in a standard toaster. Very thick or uneven hand-cut pieces may still need turning or a lower browning setting.
Q: Can it toast different bread types without guessing the setting
A: Yes. Breville Toast Select uses 6 bread presets, including white, fruit, brown, grain, rye and crumpet, to adjust toast time by bread type. Variable browning control still matters, because density and slice thickness can change the result.
Q: Will frozen bread need thawing first in this toaster
A: No. Breville Toast Select includes a defrost function, so it can toast bread from frozen without thawing it first. Results still vary with slice thickness and bread type, so the preset and browning level may need adjusting from fresh-bread settings.
Q: Does Lift and Look stop the cycle or keep counting down
A: No. Lift and Look raises the toast so you can check progress without cancelling the cycle. If it still needs more colour, the A Bit More button adds extra toasting time instead of starting a fresh cycle from the beginning.
Q: Is there a reheat function for toast that has gone cold
A: Yes. Breville Toast Select has a reheat function for warming cooked toast without running a full normal toast cycle. It is meant for previously toasted bread, not for thawing frozen slices or replacing the main browning controls.
Q: What does the crumpet setting actually change on this toaster
A: The crumpet setting uses a dedicated toast program for crumpets instead of treating them like standard sliced bread. That is useful for softer, denser items that often need a different toasting profile than white or grain bread.
