In 1955 my parents were married and bought their first toaster; it was a Sunbeam. It was the only toaster they ever owned and my father said he should contact you people and let you know what a wonderful product it has been. It was used by our family of 5 everyday. Daddy died this February and I thought I would honor his request. While my sister and I cleaned out their house we made toast one last time. The toaster still works like a new one and I thought about what Daddy said and your company. Keep up the good work Sunbeam. Donna J Simmons User's recommendation: Buy Sunbeam!
