This device would not hurt if he did not only self-destructing after one year of use. The bar at the bottom that is used to lift the bread is very fragile, and in our case it twists increasing as the days (it is true that we use it mostly for the baguette). In cosequence, bread does not go out. As in addition there is now a space between the bar and the paroie, thin bread slices have same tendency to fall to the bottom of gp or calcine it gently without that one can recover them.
