...same time and how do? the new ones compare with the performance of the ones you've recently had to discard (which you possibly had for a long time).
I have recently had to buy a new microwave oven, toaster, sandwich toaster and kettle. I am not happy with any one of them. The microwave is a 650w so I was not expecting it to be as quick as my previous 800w one but this takes ages just warm a mug of milk to make my coffee. My toaster toasts one side more than the other but poorly. If I turn them over and put it back on I dare not move away from it and I need to flip the switch at the first hint or burning. The sandwich toaster cooks just the middle of the slices and leaves all 4 corners cold with raw cheese and onion there. The kettle spits out water when I place it back on the stand unless I just put one cupful in. If I have a guest and wish to make two cups I have to do them separately because, after pouring the first, and turning the kettle upright, it spits out some water so I have to boil one cup of water at a time so I can always replace an empty kettle on the stand. All these items were bought in the space of one month. The first three were 'value' brands but the kettle was not.
I could make toast or cheese and onion on toast under the grill but could not move far from it. Same applies if I use a kettle on the gas hob. The microwave I have to leave for about double the expected time which beats the idea of them being so quick. Is this common with the newer versions or do you think I've just been extremely unfortunately and have ended up with the 'rogue' one from a batch of each of these things?
