Buy Me Once Longevity Awards - the repairer's review. About 10 minutes. Everything saves as you go, so you can come back to it.
That's gone straight to Tara. Your bench experience is now part of how these awards are judged.
Repairers who help us judge get a star on our Recommended Repairers map, as part of the movement. Unless you've asked to stay anonymous, we'll add you there.
Three quick ones first - your gut answer, before my numbers can nudge it.
Please answer all three - they're the most valuable answers in here.

If a toaster came in with this fault, what would the repair be like?
Think of the cost of the fix against the price of a new one - not whether the owner wanted it fixed.
"Our estimate" is where we've got it from desk research. Tap it if you agree, or tap your own number.

Last three on the faults
You only see the toasters someone thought were worth bringing in. Which faults do you think mostly end up in the bin instead - so they're rarer on your bench than in real life?
Tap a number on both scales first.
1. Dualit Classic/NewGen toaster elements can be swapped by a competent owner in under 30 minutes with the spare and instructions Dualit sells.
2. On a typical sealed toaster the heating element is the most common terminal failure (around 40% of faults).
3. Magimix Vision: the upper quartz element is a user job but the lower element needs a service agent.
