Nice Toasters, and fan. I have a Sunbeam T-9 that belonged to my dad's Uncle Fred & Aunt Hazel. It's one of the things I really wanted from the house after Uncle Fred passed away in '90. | ||

I have been using a Sunbeam t-20 for nearly 20 years often more than once a day. I recently replaced its plug. The cord is not original. I got it at an antique store and ironically was not on display and the sales lady asked me if I was looking for anything and I said a toaster. She said she had one in the basement and bought it for fifteen dollars.

Really nice projects! I have a T-20A that does not work at all. I plan to restore it during the winter. Found a great website on Sunbeam toasters: CLICK HERE TO GO TO Ultramatic's LINK | ||

I have a T-35 that I bought at the Goodwill Thrift Store about 10 years ago for $5.99. It is the very best toaster I’ve ever owned! I always wanted one of these toasters because my maternal Grandma had a T-20.
She used to set up Grandpa’s breakfast the night before by putting two slices of white bread in the T-20 slots, the bacon in a frying pan, set over the pilot light on the gas cooktop, I know bad idea, the eggs cracked into a small dish set in the fridge and the GE potbelly percolator loaded with water and ground coffee, ready to plug in. She would get up, half awake, on auto pilot, plug in the perc, turn the burner on under the bacon, and when the bacon was done, slide the eggs into the bacon grease and gently lift the bread slice in the front slot of the T-20 and the bread would disappear into the slots. By the time it rose up again the eggs were done and Grandpa’s breakfast was ready. I remember the first time I watched her go through this process like she was sleep walking and I was in awe.
