Yeah a lot of modern toaster manufacturers are eeking profits out of cheaper components. But a lot are still repairable if it's not computerized. Consider taking it apart and repairing it!

For me the case melts much to easily on modern toasters.
Get a bagel stuck for 2 seconds and you get melted plastic.

That seems like a very specific problem. I've seen several toasters that don't have any heat-exposed case elements which are plastic

For something that uses a lot of power, gets very hot very quickly, and is constantly filled with flammable substances...you better be sure you know what you're doing.
