I did research. For example a cutting board. There are a ton of things that came up and I looked into with google/bifl and there was a lot of conflicting information. So I wanted a more recent idea/opinions.

Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. I thought places like this were where people go to get help from others, share ideas, resources etc. The anger, lack of understanding that not everyone is the same or understands things the same, and need to snipe at others is expected, as it is the internet. I am just trying to not throw the baby out with the bath water, and to work on myself to not fall to the same negative way of being.

There have been a lot of good recommendations and people willing to reach out, even after I behaved poorly. I am thankful for those people and from this point will only connect with those people.

Take care

Hi. I wish to apologize. I jumped on the defensive even with questions like yours, that have no I’ll intent.

I have done a good chunk of searching/research. I was able to find a lot but with the stuff that was on the list I either didn’t find much, found conflicting info, or was worried the info was outdated (meaning the quality of a company has recently ranked). Hope that makes sense.

Convinced by posts on this sub I recently bought dualit toaster 4 slots (lite). This thing took over 90 seconds to heat up all toasting racks and produced so much heat that you could not touch the casing outside and the kitchen cabinet above would warm up inside like crazy. The tech support said all this was normal. Returned within 2 weeks.
