Product Description
Buck Rogers once said "There are countless ways of achieving greatness, but any road to achieving one's maximum potential must be built on a bedrock of respect for the individual, a commitment to excellence, and a rejection of mediocrity". This toaster looks like a radio that might have appeared in one of those Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon serials of the 1940's. One could say this is a toaster with a built-in radio or a radio with a built-in toaster. Either way, this product definitely rejects mediocrity. Whether you place it in your kitchen or in your dormitory, you can rest assured of its excellence and quality. The Kenwood TT756SL goes where other toasters and radios have gone before but it can also venture much farther. Slide-out crumb tray makes cleanup a breeze 110-Volt AC power cord

 Beautiful design, poor sound August 9, 2008
Fernando Bernardes (Brasilia-DF, Brazil)
The attractive retro design is hard not to notice and usually gets a lot of "wows". People often don't recognize it at first as a toaster. The toaster itself is somewhat slow, taking about 90 seconds to toast a slice of french roll. It is spacious enough to fit half a french roll, if you want. Bread slices tend to come out a little more toasted on the lower half. Don't trust the timer, or your toasts will get burned. Never set the toaster above level 2 (maximum is 6), or you will surely eat burned bread, unless you are in a hurry and keep an eye on the bread inside, pressing the "0" button to stop the grills. As to the radio, it sounds just like the old machines it intends to mimic: mid-range frequencies prevail, with nearly no bass or treble, so don't expect Kenwood sound quality. Switching from one station to another is unidirectional: You press the left button to jump to the next station, or you press the right button to return to the first station. No manual tuning. Antenna is fully retractible.

I was overwhelmed when I saw this Toaster Radio sitting on a shelf. Our office toaster had disappeared-- really. Did someone borrow it and forget to mention it? Take it home by accident? I'm no longer concerned, because it was a plain old white toaster. This is an electric blue toaster WITH A RADIO!
Toaster works fine. The radio is nothing short of terrible which is why I knocked a star off. But this maybe the only occasion I ever have to quote Samuel Johnson in a toaster review-- please excuse the 18th century sexism:
Sir, a woman preaching is like a dog's walking on his hind legs. It is not done well; but you are surprised to find it done at all.
Life of Johnson (Boswell). 27 Vol. ii. Chap. ix. 1763.
And it's far more useful that if it had been a really good radio with a bad toaster attached.
It makes great toast! December 30, 2006

I thought that this was one of the silliest gifts I ever got until I made toast with it! My English muffins came out nicely browned, not dry or burnt and I did not have to push the muffins down twice. The controls on the radio are ingenious. You push one button and the radio automatically tunes to the a broadcast with a strong signal. If you push the button again it goes to the next strong signal. The radio does not have good sound quality, but who cares? I've been looking for a good toaster for years.
Great Gag Gift December 26, 2006

Recently I needed a wedding gift for a family member. We thought this item would be fun to give this as a gag gift - every wedding needs a toaster. ;)
Luckily Amazon had this toaster on sale and it allowed us to wrap a nice looking gift but still put the real gift (a gift card) in the wedding card.
The toaster was an instant hit. It's goofy and debatably useful at the same time. The bride and groom definitely remember that gift and who gave it to them. They've also told us it works well for them as both a toaster and radio.
