    I am so excited every time I see a Technology Connections video. The things I've learned about the refrigeration cycle because of this person's keen curiosity. Incredible.

    Sunbeam, in the mid-20th century, was king of the kitchen. I have, and still use routinely, a c. 1960 Sunbeam CG-1 waffle iron. But only because the thermostat on my even older Sunbeam W2 gave out. I admit that I tend to use my full-size Kenwood stand mixer instead of the Sunbeam Mixmaster Jr that's in the drawer, though that still works.

    Why? Why will I hate my toaster? The video title tells me nothing. It's a completely uninteresting title. Looks like clickbait not worth watching.

    EDIT: Op changed title, much better
