Seconded on the Sunbeam! We inherited my father-in-law's when he moved across the country. He inherited it from his parents.

It's been in constant use for at least 60 years (I'm not sure when his parents got it), and is now making perfect toast for a fourth generation.

I prefer toaster ovens because cookies. You can make cookie dough and make one or two cookies at a time, ensuring they are always fresh out of the oven.

Wow that's a great idea! It's one of the pieces of advice that seems obvious once I hear it but I never would have thought of it myself.
