I bought a Hamilton Beach 4-slice toaster from Canadian Tire Barrhaven on August 18, 2021 for 49.99 on special. I used it once and found that it toasted OK on one side but hardly at all on the other, even though the bagel button was NOT pressed. I then checked product reviews and found this to be a fairly common complaint for this model and some others like it. I decided to take it back today (Aug 19) for store credit as I did not want a replacement of the same sort or another brand at this time. I was not able to get a store credit even though I have been a frequent customer of CT over the past 40 years. In future, it seems that I will have to purchase appliances from suppliers with a no-quibble guarantee such as Amazon and Costco.
