    Breville Products

    I was doing a search for a multipurpose steamer and the Breville products was one of the names I came across. They are based in Australia, but apparently sold internationaly. Does anyone have any experience with this brand? I was wondering about reliability/quality. Zappos carries this brand and considering weather and the free shipping and return if necessary(of course, unused), it peaked my interest.

    TIA

    I have the compact toster oven and I'm perfectly happy with it. It preheats in a flash and small things take a fraction of the time of my big oven.

    I have a toaster and a blender by them and am happy with both of them. They seem to be on the higher end pricewise, but they seem to be well made too.

    I thought Zappos was just shoes!

    Didn't know Breville made steamers. My Black and Decker just broke and I think I've had it about 15 years so I was considering another B & D though some reviews said the trays aren't made as well anymore. At the local shops like Target they just had some other cheap brand so I haven't gotten one yet. Hoping to make it to Sur La Table. I would consider Breville - the higher end kitchen shops always carry that brand.

    They have branched out with a lot of new venues, clothes, handbags, kitchen ware, etc. I was on their web site regarding an order of shoes and decided to click on some of the other things they were offering. Quite surprised by the selection!

    I love my Breville blender! It's very sturdy/powerful and quiet. I use it for all my blended soups.

    Joan, I have their Toaster Oven and love it! It's larger than most, heats up very quickly and cooks evenly, except for toast. I love the stainless look also! I wouldn't hesitate to buy any of their products.

    I have the smart oven and the juice and blend. Love both of them. The oven is a couple of years old and it gets a lot of use and is by far the best toaster oven I've ever used. They make an excellent product.

    I have the Breville Toaster/Convection oven...and although I was didn't want my husband to spend the $$$ for it, I would break somebodies arm if they tried to take it away now, LOL.

    I also have the Cuisinart Griddler, and as soon as it dies, I'm buying the Breville panini maker

    LOVE this brand!!

    Another thumbs up for the toaster oven. I've had mine for a couple of months now and absolutely love it!

    I have the panini maker and we like it a lot! Got as a mother's day gift from my husband a few years ago and have used it weekly since then. It works perfectly not just for sandwiches but also for grilling veggies and chicken, and it is easy to clean too!

    My mother has the toaster oven and loves it. I got one of their espresso machines for Christmas and I'm not sure how I ever survived without it :P

    The quality of the machines is great, but the company also has great customer service. The first espresso machine I received wasn't functioning properly. I would've been happy for them to just ship me the part and me replace it myself but they sent me another machine by 2nd day air without even receiving the machine that I shipped back to them first. The 2nd machine is the one I have now and I love it; my BF and I probably make 10 drinks a week with it.

    The brand is pricey but their quality and commitment to great customer service makes it worth it. If I was ever in the market for an appliance that they manufacture, I would seriously consider buying the Breville.
