Man (n) covers lovingly the table with flowers, fresh strawberries, honey, salmon - the cat purrs, the wife is peaceful, the birds singing outside the window - everything was perfect. The new toaster of the company Gastroback, which looks quite classy, is taken without any study of the manual without any problems in operation, after the old Billigheimer had a week earlier passed by a cloud of smoke. The stainless steel toaster toasts with a lot of power, as it should be, the display shows the remaining time is graphically counted down until the first bite. Still winy seconds and that breakfast can begin. But then -> a loud long-drawn "BEEP" resounds through the kitchen, cat and wife are annoyed, the birds in the courtyard speechless, the mood is gone. The leaves Kitty immediately the kitchen, the wife follows her 3 Toast later and feeds since of crispbread and muesli. I have to decide now: new toaster, other wife or even to switch to cereal - the latter variant I want to exclude before.
PS: However, the toaster has a variety of settings, the beep can not be turned off. There is a button for one-sided toasting (what strange man needs such a thing?), A button for defrosting or another to warm up (which actually differ functionally both Varinaten?), But not mute. For a family of 4 with a consumption of about 14 per Toasties Breakfast a loud annoying BEEP sounds 7x at intervals of 2-3 minutes across the room. Who invented it? And why?
