That’s an interesting analysis, Gary. You’ve got me looking at my own toaster more critically now!

I travel a lot and have breakfast in hotels all of which have a four slot commercial toaster which do a uniformly bad job. There are two reasons. First is that the four slots share the available power that was formerly used for two slots. So the elements never get as radiant as a two slot toaster. Second they widened the slots to take bagels and this puts the elements further away. So the toaster takes a really long time to do its job, and the toast rather than toasting simply dries out the bread.

There are now some hotels with two slot toasters as I have had this conversation with many managers. I hate waiting 10 minutes for a slice of toast!
