I'm _literally_ just looking for a toaster that'll outlast me and found Dualit: https://www.dualit.com/products/2-slice-newgen

Hand made in the UK, fully mechanical and you can get spare parts for it.

There's very little that can fail, it doesn't have a spring that brings the toast up, you need to push the lever yourself. Even the timer is fully mechanical.

They only sell spares for the higher end models. We have a basic Dualit toaster which you can't get spares for (although it has been reliable so far).
