2-slice countertop toaster ALESSI MDL15GR Plissé — green, 6 browning levels, bagel/defrost/reheat, removable crumb tray

The Plissé XL toaster by Alessi (model MDL15B) is a two-slice countertop toaster in green with a sculptural pleated design by Michele De Lucchi. Its pleated exterior gives the appliance a distinctive, display-worthy appearance while the stainless-steel interior and thermoplastic resin components provide practical durability. The toaster includes a stainless-steel brioche warmer grill accessory suitable for heating small pastries and reheating already-toasted bread.

Advantages

The toaster offers six browning settings and dedicated bagel, defrost and quick reheat functions, allowing precise control over toasting results. Backlit controls improve visibility, a non-slip base ensures stability on the countertop, and a removable crumb tray simplifies cleaning. The included stainless-steel grill expands functionality for warming pastries and rolls.

Suitable for

• Toasting 1–2 slices of bread at home

How to use

Place the toaster on a stable, heat-resistant surface and connect it to a suitable mains outlet. Insert bread or small pastries and select the desired browning level and function (bagel, defrost or quick reheat). Use the brioche warmer grill accessory to warm croissants or rolls by positioning it on the toaster slots as shown in the product instructions. After use, switch off and unplug the appliance, allow it to cool, then remove the crumb tray and empty it for cleaning.

Usage recommendations

Do not immerse the toaster in water. Use the removable crumb tray to remove debris regularly and avoid overcrowding the slots — up to two slices at a time — to ensure even toasting. Handle the grill accessory with care; its handles are made of thermoplastic resin to reduce heat transfer.
