Toaster Lessons
This consumer reports that the toaster the family bought 30 years ago was much better than the new replica.
My dad proudly told me the history of the toaster as if it were a St. Peter’s thighbone, and how amazed that after more than 30 years, it still worked fine. Sure it was a bit tarnished, but when my dad found that Sunbeam had decided to re-release this toaster (to capture some of the then-popular 50’s-retro demand), my father couldn’t resist and bought a new one. The old toaster was placed in a cardboard coffin and buried with our other relics somewhere in the garage.
About 4 months later, this new toaster broke, and we ended up resurrecting the old toaster from the garage.
