Tragedy averted

Seems simple enough, I toasted my bagel this morning.  It looked OK, but I wanted it just a little darker so pushed it down again.  Popped the circuit breaker!  Waited a minute did it again.
Fortunately it was toasted enough to be edible.  If it happened the first time, I'd have to go down the street knocking on doors to find someone that would toast my bagel.  Then, I'd have to rush home while still warm.
No toast needed tomorrow, having pancakes.  Amazon brings the new one tomorrow.
This one was a Kitchen Aid and only lasted 3 years.  Next one is a Hamilton Beach.  The best ones only has 70% five stars, all has about 8% of 1 star.
