Kids or critters or Boves might accidentally put things in and get burned or electrocuted. Microwaves have other safety features, and they also have electronic settings that will be lost if unplugged. |

A guy in chat told me all toasters have levers to push down, I told him no they don't. I have 2 old Sunbeam toasters where the breas goes down by itself and they must be 50 yrs old.

I use a Proctor-Silex toaster that cost $8 and its about 22 yrs old.

I still have the 2 Sunbeam, they have fabric type cords that looks kinda dangerous.

I also unplug the coffee maker and it has a cover placed over it as well. The KitchenAid mixer has a matching cover, too. |

I drink french press coffee so no cord there but I keep the washer and dryer unplugged.

why
It used to be that coffee makers were the most common fire-starting appliance. Wasn't there something about the Mr. Coffee machine starting fires? I can't remember exactly. My toaster oven and Keurig are plugged in all the time. So is my KA mixer, just because it is more convenient to leave it plugged in. I guess I am living dangerously. N. |
