Query: Great while it lasted!

We bought this toaster oven after our old one died after many years. It lit up like the sun but toasted fast and we used it several times a week. We learned to deal with the lack of temperature settings and the constant red light so that you never knew if it was on or off, but after 16 months, the top heating element blew out, 4 months after the manufacturer's warranty period. Reading the other reviews, I guess we were lucky to have it work so long although the customer service person I spoke to on the phone said it should not have stopped working so soon. When you spend that much money on an appliance, you expect it to last years, not months. We loved it and now we will avoid all Toastmaster products. A great beginning that ended in bitterness.
