The best 4-slice toaster on Amazon.in
The short answer
Russell Hobbs 18790 4-slice toaster
A stainless steel 4-slice toaster with reheat, defrost and cancel, a separate browning control for each pair of slots and a 2-year manufacturer warranty, for a household that toasts at different shades.
- Separate browning control for each pair
- Reheat, defrost and cancel functions
- 2-year manufacturer warranty on listing
The 2 alternatives, for other needs
- If you want a smaller, lighter toasteriBELL CrustoF40 4-slice toaster

If several people want toast at once, a 2-slice toaster means waiting for a second round. Most of the 4-slice listings we read agree on the basics, four slots and a set of browning levels. They split on whether you can rewarm a cold slice or defrost frozen bread, whether each pair of slots can run on its own setting, and how the warranty is worded.
We read 30 Amazon.in listings and shortlisted 11, two of them the same Morphy Richards AT 402 in black and in white. We have no Indian Russell Hobbs page for the 18790, so we read Russell Hobbs UK's product page and user manual for the same model number; for the iBELL CrustoF40 we read iBELL's own product page and its warranty registration and service request forms, and for the Morphy Richards AT 402, Bajaj Electricals' page for the black model. We have no brand page for the other models, including the Westinghouse WETR4. Nobody here has used these toasters. This is a reading of what the listings and brand pages say, and we note where they disagree.
We set aside the one listing that is unclear on how many slices it takes, then ranked on which of reheat, defrost and cancel a listing names, then on whether each pair of slots has its own browning control, then on whether a brand page confirms the listing, and last on how the warranty is earned. Our pick is the Russell Hobbs 18790: it names all three functions, gives each pair of slots its own browning control and lists a 2-year manufacturer warranty. The iBELL CrustoF40 comes second, with a browning control dial and no mention of one for each pair of slots, and a smaller, lighter body on paper. The Westinghouse WETR4 comes third, because nothing beyond its listing backs it up, but it is the only one of the three picks with a bun attachment.

- Size and weight
- 29.5D x 28.8W x 18H cm, 2 kg 570 g (Russell Hobbs UK's page gives a height of 225 mm)Amazon.in listing and Russell Hobbs UK product page (18790)
Why it's on the list
- Separate browning control for each pair
- Reheat, defrost and cancel functions
- 2-year manufacturer warranty on listing
Worth knowing
- The brand page and manual we read are Russell Hobbs UK's, not an Indian page. On height the UK page differs from the listing (225 mm against 18 cm). The manual's guarantee section is written for UK buyers, with claims sent to Spectrum Brands (UK) Ltd and the extra year tied to a UK website, and the listing doesn't say those terms apply in India, so the warranty block gives the listing's 2-year term and labels every other term as the UK manual's.
- Russell Hobbs' UK manual says the surfaces get hot during use, though the Amazon.in listing calls the body cool touch. It also says: if bread jams, unplug the toaster, let it cool and remove the bread carefully; don't toast or reheat buttered, torn or misshapen bread; don't run it without the crumb tray fitted, or near or below combustible materials such as curtains, and don't cover it or put anything on top of it; don't connect it through a timer or remote-control system, stand it upright on a firm, level, heat-resistant surface, and keep the toaster and its cord out of reach of children under 8. It gives a maximum bread thickness of 26mm.
- It is the heaviest of the three picks on paper: 2 kg 570 g, against 2 kg for the iBELL and 2 kg 190 g for the Westinghouse.
Skip it if you want a smaller, lighter toaster than this one (the iBELL CrustoF40 is listed at 2 kg and 35 x 14.5 cm), or you want to warm buns and rolls on the toaster.
The reasoning
On paper the 18790 covers each function we looked for. Its listing names reheat, cancel and defrost, 7 heat settings, extra-wide slots, bread centring, a high-rise carriage handle and a removable crumb tray, and its details table gives 1500 Watts and 2 Years Manufacturer Warranty.
What set it apart is the dual browning control. The listing says each pair of slots has its own control, so two people can toast at different settings at once, or you can run one side as a 2-slice toaster. Russell Hobbs UK's page describes the same thing: two carriages that work independently, each with its own control of 7 settings, plus frozen, cancel and reheat buttons. iBELL's page names a browning control dial for the CrustoF40 and, like its listing, mentions no separate control for each pair of slots, and the Westinghouse listing describes separate levers but not separate browning settings.
The brand source needs a caveat. The listing names Gryphon Appliances as the importer, and we have no Indian Russell Hobbs page, so we read the UK page and UK manual for the same model number. The UK page agrees with the listing on four slots, and the page gives 7 settings and frozen, cancel and reheat buttons, and the manual describes 7 browning settings and frozen, reheat and stop. But the UK page gives a height of 225 mm against the listing's 18 cm, and neither the page nor the manual gives a wattage, so the 1500 Watts is the listing's figure. Its bullets put the power at 1250 to 1500 Watt.

Why it's on the list
- Listed at 35 x 14.5 x 17 cm and 2 kg
- Defrost, reheat and cancel buttons
- 1400 W, 7 browning levels on iBELL's page
Worth knowing
- The full 2 years depends on registering within 30 days of delivery, and iBELL's page states only the 1-year standard term, though it links to Warranty Registration.
- The listing's details table gives 10 settings, against the 7 browning levels in its bullets and on iBELL's page.
- iBELL's page gives no usage or safety instructions. It lists a user manual in the package, so read that before first use.
Skip it if you want a full 2-year term without registering, a stainless steel body, or a separate browning setting for each pair of slots.
The reasoning
The CrustoF40 names the same three functions as the Russell Hobbs, as separate defrost, reheat and cancel buttons with an LED indicator. iBELL's own page repeats them, along with 1400 Watts, 7 browning levels, auto shut-off and 220 to 240 V.
Where it differs is size. iBELL's page gives 35 x 14.5 x 17 cm and the listing 35D x 14.5W x 17H cm, so it is about half as wide as the Russell Hobbs' 28.8 cm, and the listing gives 2 kg against the Russell Hobbs' 2 kg 570 g. Its 35 cm long side is longer than either side of the Russell Hobbs, though, so measure the counter space you have. Its body is plastic on both the listing and iBELL's page, where the Russell Hobbs and Westinghouse listings give stainless steel.
We put it behind the Russell Hobbs on two counts. iBELL's page names a browning control dial, and neither it nor the listing mentions a separate control for each pair of slots. And its second warranty year takes a step from you: registering within 30 days of delivery, as its warranty block sets out.

Why it's on the list
- Removable bun attachment that keeps food warm
- Separate levers for 2 or 4 slices
- Defrost, warm-up and stop functions
Worth knowing
- Everything here comes from the listing. We have no Westinghouse page for this model or its part number to check it against, and the listing gives no usage or safety instructions and doesn't say a manual is in the box, so look for one in the box before first use.
- The title calls the bun attachment removable, and a bullet says it can be folded out. The listing doesn't list what comes in the box.
- At 24.3 cm it is the tallest of the three picks as listed, so check the clearance under any wall cabinet.
Skip it if you need a brand page to confirm the specs before you buy, you want a separate browning setting for each pair of slots, or you never warm buns or rolls.
The reasoning
The WETR4 is here for warming buns. Its title lists a removable bun attachment, and a bullet describes an attachment that keeps food warm or works as a roll attachment and can be folded out. Neither of the other two picks mentions one in its listing or on the brand page we read.
On functions it matches the other two picks. The listing names defrost, warm-up and stop functions, bread centring, 6 browning levels and a crumb tray its title calls extendable, and a bullet says separate compartments with separate levers let you toast 2 or 4 slices. The title gives a 2-Yr Warranty, and the listing doesn't mention registering.
It comes third because no brand page backs the listing. We have no Westinghouse page for the WETR4 or its part number, WKTTB809RD, so nothing settles the slip in its listing: the details table gives 1750 KW where the title and bullets say 1750 watts. The iBELL listing has a similar slip (10 settings in its details table against 7 in its bullets), but iBELL's page gives 7. The WETR4 also lists 6 browning levels, against 7 for the other two picks, and like the iBELL it describes no separate browning setting for each pair.

Russell Hobbs UK's site search returned nothing for the other Russell Hobbs model, and we have no brand page for the other models.

What we ruled out
- Morphy Richards AT 402 (370080 black, 370060 white)Two listings for the same toaster in black and white. Both give 1450 Watts, 7 browning levels, bread centring, a removable crumb tray and a 2-year warranty, and Bajaj Electricals' page for the black one agrees. But neither the parts of either listing we could read nor that page names reheat or defrost, and of the parts we could read, only the white listing names a cancel function.
- Russell Hobbs 17700Its details table gives a size of 5D x 5W x 5H cm, and like the Westinghouse WETR4 it has no brand page we could check it against. It names a bun warmer, cancel, frozen and reheat functions, 7 browning levels and a 2-year warranty its bullets say covers manufacturing defects, but the listing is also unclear on capacity: the title says 4-Slice and the details table 4 slots, while its extra-long-slots bullet says you can toast two slices at once.
- Sujata PT12 (1500)It names reheat and defrost, 1500 Watts and a high-lift feature, but its title, bullets and details table state no warranty term and name no cancel function. Its title gives 7 heating modes while a bullet calls them four customizable heating modes.
- Usha iToast (40015ITOASTPT441N)It lists 32 mm wider slots, a cord winder, 1400 Watts, 6 browning settings and 2 years on product, but its title, bullets and details table name no reheat, defrost or cancel function.
- ITALIA 4-Slice (7900)It lists a cancel button, 6 browning controls and 1400 Watts, but names no reheat or defrost. Its listing gives a 1-year warranty, the same term as the CrustoF40's standard warranty.
- Boss Eden (B08F41KBV5)It lists 1100 Watts, 7 heat settings and a 2 year warranty, but the parts of its listing we could read name no reheat, defrost or cancel function.
Before you buy
Check that reheat and defrost are actually named
Several 4-slice listings name browning levels but no reheat or defrost. The parts of the Morphy Richards AT 402 and Boss Eden listings we could read, and the Usha iToast and ITALIA listings, name neither reheat nor defrost, so if you toast frozen bread, look for the word in the listing before you order.
Read how the warranty is earned
The iBELL listing adds its second year only if you register within 30 days of delivery. The Russell Hobbs 18790 and Westinghouse listings give 2 years and don't mention registering. None of the three listings says what the warranty covers or excludes, or whether service is at your home or at a service centre, so look for those terms in the paperwork that comes in the box, if any, or ask the seller; each pick's warranty block sets out what its sources do say.
Check the socket
The pop-up toasters on the shortlist list 1100 to 1750 watts, and the Westinghouse lists the most of the three picks, 1750 watts. Of the shortlist, only the Morphy Richards AT 402 listings name a plug type, a 16A three-pin top. None of our three picks' listings or brand pages states the plug type, so check it on the box or in the manual before you plan the socket.
Run it empty first
Russell Hobbs' UK manual for the 18790 says to set the browning level to maximum and run the toaster empty before first use, in a well-ventilated room, as the new elements may smell a little. Check your own toaster's manual for the same step.
Questions buyers ask
Can I toast just two slices in a 4-slice toaster?
On two of the three picks, yes: the Russell Hobbs 18790 listing says each pair of slots has its own browning control, so one side can work as a 2-slice toaster, and the Westinghouse WETR4 listing says separate levers let you toast 2 or 4 slices. The iBELL CrustoF40 listing and iBELL's page don't say whether its slots work in separate pairs. Russell Hobbs' UK manual adds that when you use a single slot, the other slot should be empty.
Will these toasters run on Indian mains power?
On paper, yes: all three picks state a mains voltage in the 220 to 240 V range on the listing or brand page: iBELL's page gives 220 to 240 V for the CrustoF40, the Russell Hobbs 18790 listing gives 240 Volts and the Westinghouse WETR4 listing 230 Volts. None of the three says which plug it ships with.
Can these 4-slice toasters toast bread straight from the freezer?
On paper, yes: all three picks name a defrost or frozen setting. Russell Hobbs' UK manual says the 18790's frozen button changes the toasting time automatically, iBELL's page lists defrost for the CrustoF40, and the Westinghouse listing describes a dedicated button for defrosting frozen bread.
How long is each 4-slice toaster's warranty, and do I need to register?
Two years on all three picks' listings, but the iBELL CrustoF40's second year needs registration within 30 days of delivery, and iBELL's page says 1 Year standard warranty. The Russell Hobbs 18790 and Westinghouse WETR4 listings don't mention registering. Russell Hobbs' UK manual offers an extra year for registering on a UK website, but those terms are written for UK buyers. None of the three listings says what the warranty covers or excludes; each pick's warranty block sets out what its sources say.
How thick a slice will these 4-slice toasters fit?
Russell Hobbs' UK manual for the 18790 gives a maximum bread thickness of 26mm. The iBELL CrustoF40 listing and page and the Westinghouse WETR4 listing give no slot width or bread thickness.
What comes in the box with these 4-slice toasters?
The iBELL CrustoF40 comes with the toaster and a user manual, according to both its listing and iBELL's page. The Russell Hobbs 18790 listing names the toaster and a user manual cum warranty card, and the Westinghouse WETR4 listing doesn't list its contents.
