The 2 stars I have forgiven, because the device has nevertheless persevered for 4 years before also with me the seal is broken. Ironically, this part, which is exposed to high forces and fluctuating temperatures to manufacture plastic proves itself again to be false. As with many other devices also there is indeed a way to wind the cable, but thought through, it is not. The chunky plug dangling always somehow, somewhere around and bother if you want to shipping the unit. Here, the designers had devised quite a good solution to stop the machine upright. The rough surface makes the device somehow visually insensitive to grease stains but is also so rough that a wiper with the paper of kitchen roll this aufreibt. As already described, it is in use, a very good toaster, heats evenly, is quite easy to clean and robust Teflon coating has, which is harmless, even after four years.
