At work we have some boring toasters. It uses a dial for how well burned you want your bread. It works perfectly well. Purely electromechanical.
Why the fuck does it need this is beyond me.
It was $5 cheaper.
Now give up your email address, phone number, name, mailing address, and sign in to our app to burn your bread.
I also have a boring dial toaster. It was given to me by a couple who were afraid of it because it doesn't pop up. You have to work a lever to get the toast out. Makes great toast.
