Enjoy breakfast with a retro twist

Tefal has teamed up with British design and innovation leaders Seymourpowell to create the Retra Breakfast set*. Taking cues from 1950s Italy, this chic matt black kettle and toaster set boasts clean lines, subtle curves and gleaming chrome accents. The retro aesthetic cleverly combines with modern-day functionality to bring a touch of 'new nostalgia' to any style of kitchen. The Tefal Retra toaster has four extra-wide slots with self-centring racks that are ideal for toasting four thick rounds of perfectly golden toast, as well as bagels, crumpets and teacakes. The slots are forward-facing, too, so you can keep an eye on what's toasting. Two independent toasting chambers let you toast two or four slices at once. Each chamber has a seven-level browning control for toast to your taste, plus three handy automatic functions. Use 'reheat' to warm toast that you let go cold in the morning rush, 'stop' to pop up your toast at any time and 'defrost' to thaw bread – great when you forget to take your loaf out of the freezer. If you like a toasted muffin, you'll love the high-lift lever which helps you lift out smaller items without burning your fingers. Two slide-out crumb trays – one on each side – will catch any crumbs, while integrated cord storage helps keep your worktop tidy.

  • Form and function: Packed with clever features, this chic retro toaster will make breakfast time easier and look great while it's at it.
  • Versatile: Four forward-facing, extra-wide slots let you toast bread of any size and keep a close eye on progress, while automatic centring ensures they're evenly browned.
  • Tailored toasting: This Tefal toaster has two independent chambers each with its own seven-level browning dial and three automatic functions – 'reheat', 'stop' and 'defrost' – for custom results.
  • Safe removal: The handy high-lift lever helps you remove smaller items, such as crumpets, safely – no more burnt fingers!
  • Convenient: Two slide-out crumb trays make it easy to remove crumbs and keep your Tefal toaster clean, while integrated cord storage keeps your worktop clutter free.
