my new quite expensive toaster doesn't take a full slice properly, I swear each time I make toast now
Over-hyped? You mean by all the people that think it offers good products at fair prices, without all the price manipulation, twisting and fiddling that Tesco get up to?
Voted hot.
Russell Hobbs 13766 takes a full slice with no bits poking out of the top.
I believe it is because the butter melts easily when applied.
Have to agree.
New Aldi opened a ten minute drive away. I have been twice now and still hardly bought much. Veg is good but the rest is poor quality and not as cheap as people make out. The only stuff cheap is cheap for a reason.
It's ok if you want to feed your family on crisps and biscuits so I suppose it's aimed at a poor customer base with a poor diet.
Yes, the other supermarkets are too expensive but it's not possible to feed your family properly with the junk at Aldi.
You could always try using the lovely veg you mention to feed your family....
Meat, dairy, fruit, juices, bread all comparable if not better than most supermarkets in my experience. Specially selected range is also very good.
Although I disagree with you about aldi quality, don't you think the best thing to do with supermarkets is to use more than one for your shopping. I know some will not have the time but there is generally the opportunity to use more than one and get the best out of both.
Another point, actually on thread, will not the glass glass get grubby/crumby on the inside in a short space of time?
couldn't agree more
I luckily live in an area with many small holding for fruit veg meat, i personally think proper whole food is fundamental stuff. i am a vitamixer! most people are malnourished, no wonder they over eat on long-life shelved 'foods'
To get the best out of them, use them in combination with other supermarkets because there are often deals that destroy Aldi prices for a lot of items. I find that they are good to pick up some Euro items that normally wouldn't be available elsewhere, though if I am pushed for time then My Aldi trip is the one that gets missed.
Yes - that's why Which? (hardly a magazine for your 'poor customer base with a poor diet') said this:
For the first time ever, Aldi has been voted Britain's top supermarket, according to the annual Which? supermarket survey.
Aldi's 76% customer score means it narrowly edges out Waitrose (75%), which has been voted the best supermarket every year since our survey started in 2007.
Aldi customers' views
Many of your comments mention value as one of the main reasons why you shop at Aldi.
One shopper said: 'They do not deserve the stigma of being a cheap shop. They may be cheap, but they have a lot of really good value own-brand products.
But Aldi wouldn’t be loved by its customers if it was just cheap. It was also rated highly for filling your trolley and the quality of its fresh food. Several own-brand items, such as its cold meats, fruit and vegetables, were singled out for praise. Shoppers also liked the wide range of European products.
Some customers said they can’t get everything they want at Aldi, but others saw the fact that it stocks fewer items as a positive, saying it made it easier and quicker to get their shopping done.

The fruit and veg are smaller and some are recently more expensive than other supermarkets. Meat is all prepacked and not that brilliant in terms of quality. The cheeses are poor compared to most supermarkets. I think you must be off your head if you think the bread is anywhere near supermarket quality, no made in store bread and the breadcakes are the driest I have ever had.
This exactly what the poster was meaning by over-hyped. Aldi has it's place but let's get back to reality, it's not better than supermarkets and to be honest of late is not better value either other than a few odd items that may be worth getting.

Agree and the users of this site will prove just how over hyped it is with the comments you get back. Think Aldi must brain wash these people, I don't mind Aldi for a few select items but would never choose it over the main supermarkets because the quality and shopping experience is lacking. I like fresh bread, pancakes, pizza, fish, meat and deli from the counters rather than prepacked Aldi products but each to their own. I will get bombarded for this comment but always have a chuckle at people trying to defend Aldi
60% of the time it will work all of the time
Meat, try the 21 or 28 day aged steak far superior to most supermarkets, bread, white seeded batch loaves are fantastic, bagels and hot cross buns great too. Cheeses are comparable to cathedral city and flavoured cheeses are brilliant, parmesan far cheaper than other places. You only have to look at the number of people in the shops to see they're making an impression on the big boys. I won't be rushing back to sainsburys to get ripped off every week. Each to their own though.

A Vitamixer? If so you're drinking your Fruit and Veg? You do realise that is a terrible idea, right?
you Dont.
people toast bread to get toast.....therefore you toast sand to get glass.
Return it and tell them it's not fit for purpose
That's a relief!
Last time I was buying a toaster I made a life size replica of a slice of Warburton bread so I could test for fitting when in the shop.

I'd prefer a mug with a clippable mat.People are acting like aldi and lidl are new to the retail game,they had them in Livingston fifteen years ago and also in other places,they have failed to evolve, same special weekly offers,same paranoid attitude to customers,like having to queue up to exit the store,same limited choice, basically its different strokes for different folkes,we would be foolish to pledge our loyalty to any of these shysters, they are all out to screw us,shop around,look at all their special offers,move on to the next store and repeat,if the price of lambrini goes up one week in your favourite store,go elsewhere, don't fall for their sudden unreasonable price increases,walk away!
Tesco were selling those cheap four can pack of cheap lager for 70p,then overnight they were charging £1,then they upped the price to £2 hoping the customer would take a hit, and the competition would subsequently increase their prices too,fortunely neither Morrison's nor sainsburys fell for it and tesco are back to charging £1 a pack,same goes for eggs,the prices shot up when they all decided to join in,then when the customers said screw you and boycotted the product,the prices went back down.
Don't trust the buggers,they are all the same,and don't believe the aldi hype.
