Does it fit thick or long slices of bread?

Only partly. The slots suit standard sandwich slices; thick-cut artisan loaves and long farmhouse slices often need trimming or sit above the slot.

What do the bagel, defrost and reheat settings do?

Bagel toasts the cut side only, defrost adds time for frozen bread, and reheat warms without further browning. All work alongside the six-level browning dial.

How many slices can it toast at once?

Two, in two slots. There is no four-slice version in this line, so larger households may want a bigger model.

No. The crumb tray slides out from the base, and the smooth steel exterior wipes down, though the painted finish shows fingerprints.

How does it compare with a basic two-slice toaster?

It toasts the same two slices with similar settings, so the difference is the retro steel body and color range rather than extra capacity or speed.

Does it have a cancel button?

Yes. The mid-cycle cancel lifts and stops toasting before the timer ends, and the toast pops up automatically when done.

Our take on the Smeg '50S Retro Style Two-Slice Toaster

The Smeg '50S is a two-slice toaster built in the brand's 1950s-inspired curved steel body, sold in a wide range of colors. It offers six browning levels plus defrost, reheat and bagel settings, a mid-cycle cancel, and a removable crumb tray. It suits buyers who want a toaster that stays out on the counter as a design piece and who mostly toast standard sliced bread. Against plain rivals it costs far more for the same basic job, and its slots are sized for ordinary slices, so thick artisan loaves and long slices fit poorly.
