  2. That's cool! I recently picked up a really neat old sunbeam toaster at an estate sale, still haven't gotten the chance to see if it works, but this makes me more confident!

  3. I'm with you - I think we just don't build things like we used to - sadly even made in North America is no guarantee of quality these days!
