David and Victoria Beckham’s toaster blends classic style with modern performance – it’s an iconic kitchen essential
The Beckhams toaster serves as a reminder that some appliances can look (and feel) luxurious – their go-to is under $380
David and Victoria Beckham’s homes have long served as a source of design inspiration for the celebrity style team here at H&G – but above all, we find ourselves returning to their London townhouse the most.
Designed by luxury Italian manufacturer Officine Gullo, the countertops, cabinets, and island all contribute to a mixed-material aesthetic – but this theme continues through their appliances. Take their toaster, for example. It’s one of the best toasters available, but beyond its cooking abilities, it fits their textured kitchen perfectly.
The Dualit Classic NewGen Toaster (available on Amazon) has a chrome metal exterior, complementing the metallic kitchen backsplash and black countertops. The manufacturer, Dualit, has designed appliances since 1945, while their classic toaster has been hand-built in the UK since 1952. Today, it’s an international kitchen essential – because if it’s good enough for the Beckhams, it’s good enough for us.
Enjoy the classic, timeless look of the iconic Dualit brand with up-to-date, energy-efficient technology. It’s the perfect alternative for those who love retro style but still want a perfectly cooked bagel in the morning.
This toaster is the perfect fit for Beckham’s mixed-material kitchen, but there’s also something to say about the science behind the appliance. Dualit’s ProHeat elements have a protective, armor-plated layer, meaning they’re (virtually) unbreakable. These toasters are designed to last longer than traditional wire element alternatives, with a superior heat spread and tastier toast, muffins, and teacakes. So, while $380 is an investment, it’s one that will look great on your countertops for many years to come.
