I bought my bottom of the barrel Wal-Mart toaster for $6 about 8 years ago. It might occasionally have issues popping out a piece of bread but it cost $6 and it toasts bread consistently.
I'm mostly holding on to this thing to prove a point to the "they don't make them like they used to" and the "you have to spend at least $100+ on X or else it will break in a week" crowd. I know it isn't the best toaster out there but I'd take it over a $189 toaster even if both were offered for free just because I'd feel like an idiot for having something so ostentatious on my countertop.
They have. They're called dualit.
