Dualit, worth the money!

@thorpy6

Happy to make you one almost identical much cheaper, but without the horse on the case.

Don't forget the Panasonic capacitors!

Look, I know I threw the previous replacement one I bought in the bin and reverted back to the old faithful Hinari, but I'm convinced this is the one for me. Forever.

Ahahahahaha. That's like me saying I have enough dirt pedals...........

No seriously, I'm just a one-toaster man from now on. As loyal as a spaniel, me.

FFS put the grill on, no toaster in our house!

chillidoggy · October 2014

And watch the lecky bill go through the roof? No way!

mudslide73 · October 2014

Oh no. That's opened up the whole Gas v Lecky grill debate

You have to flip the bread with a grill too.

Well now, that's just fair! How can anyone really be expected to actually flip bread?!

Crap, you just turn the oven upside down.

chillidoggy · October 2014

And you can do cheese on toast by turning the toaster on its side.

Sambostar · October 2014

Does that actually work? Because my grill is broken.

chillidoggy · October 2014

Yes. Used to do when I was on ships. Cheese control is tricky, and you need to only lightly toast the slice first. Used to piss the ship's electrician off big time, keep having to clean out all the burnt cheese and shit.

I'm sad to report a drawback bigger than an elephant's foreskin with regard my newly-acquired 4-slot toaster.

The bog-standard Warbo's thick white, totally indigestible, and really bad for you, slice of bread just about fits, whilst buns, crumpets and muffins are easily devoured by its jaws with acres of room to spare. But pitta? You have to cut the end off them.

See? I knew I should have hung out until I'd researched a bit more thoroughly. I'm telling you, there's a gap in the market for a decent, 4-slice, long-slot job, and no-one has yet filled it. There's money to be made here, you mark my words.

And next weeks thread "I wish I'd bought a different toaster, this one over/under toasts my bread"

What, did I say. Proven right.

chillidoggy · October 2014

I concede the point, but at least it's for a different reason.

mike_l · October 2014

Someone, namely Chilli, didn't do his toaster homework properly.

^Mike goes into teacher mode^

Now do 100 lines of "I must research toaster properly"

chillidoggy · October 2014

I was waiting for Drew to offer to smack my arse.

I've yet to find a reliable bloody toaster, they always seem to break just after the warranty expires..

get one without a warranty then!

That's for a different reason though.......
