I've had the same toaster for the better part of 15 years now I don't think its any weirder than owning a dedicated sandwich press. It's usually a set it and forget it kinda of item that doesn't take long to do its job.
- silisili 5y agoI don't think it's weird at all, it was really a question out of curiosity and not meant as an insult or anything.
- stagger87 5y agoA quick search would have told you something like 80 percent of households own toasters.
- silisili 5y agoThe 80 percent figure I found was from nearly 20 years ago. It's hard to find anything more recent. Moreover, I guess what I'm most interested in is in how many people have and regularly use a toaster today, and more specifically why. The counterspace tradeoff doesn't seem worth it to me, so I'm curious about other's use cases and opinions. I apologize if my initial premise came off as condescending.
- sgtnoodle 5y agoLots of people keep their toaster hidden in a cabinet and take it out every morning then put it away.
- Twisol 5y agoBut that would leave one lonely person with an answer, and rob us all of a scintillating discussion on a (gasp) discussion forum. The post made me reflect on the fact that I have a toaster at all; I've used it vanishingly few times, and I only really own one because my parents have one. Questions are seeds of a discussion; it's better to nurture them than to stomp them out.
