Waiting for all the LPT in a couple years about not buying old appliances because their house burnt down due to structural integrity of the wire housing after 40-50 years and the obscene amount of power these things consume.

Tell modern appliance manufacturers to make their products as well as the Toastmaster then.

Is the Toastmaster the fully automatic toaster that u/TechConnectify did a couple videos on?

He did the videos on the Sunbeam Radiant Control

Yes, and not sure. There's a very popular 40ish minute video on YouTube but I don't remember who made it.

It is. Because I have one of those. It is fully automatic AND DO YOU SEE A TRIGGER? THERE IS NO TRIGGER SO ITS AUTOMATIC.

I'm an electrician... it's called insulation... not housing. Something that works as intended for 70 years at 1600w saves much more power in the long run than buying an entirely new 1000w unit every 5-10 years. You will come to see how this is true when you get a bit older.

No doubt. I have a 1956 GE Liberator stove that I use daily. Nothing wrong with it other than the clock doesn't work. May not be the most efficient but hot dog, that thing works all the time and every time. Oven is dialed in precisely and even the Sensi-temp burner still works (yes, they had these back in the 50's). 👍😎👍
