There’s been a death in the family. I’m sad to report that my toaster has given up the ghost after years of loyal service.
The embuggerance of it is, it’s probably something simple like an internal fuse (how complicated can a toaster be?) but it’s held together with these stupid recessed triangular-headed screws which, despite having a reasonable selection of security bits, I can’t open. And tempting though it is, I’m loathe to spend the price of a toaster on drivers just to open the sod.
So, I need a new one. Looking for a four-slice toaster (cos I’m a greedy bastard) that actually toasts evenly without having to turn the bread round halfway through, something that seems a tall order in the toaster world. Ideally I’d like separate controls for each pair of slots (the old one had one plunger which dropped all four, not very green). I want a slot length that is actually bigger than your average toastie loaf slice, which again seems to be an unnecessarily unusual ask, and I don’t want to pay the price of a big screen telly for something which just warms bread.
Any suggestions, before I go and get the nearest Tesco special and spend the next ten years being angry at it for being rubbish?
