This man repaired a toaster for 25 years

Thank you for your service

No it's better: it didn't break for 25 years. But I would have tried to repair it if it broke earlier. I mean... if I really really really wanted I might be able to find the same model somewhere on ebay. But breaking another toaster to repair mine would be a little insane.

Good news is that the vendor (Krups) vows to keep spare parts available for 15 years. So I will definitely get another toaster from them.
