    A Choice?

    Our Toaster in the office died. Well, it was on its last heater. One had to put the thing down 3 times before a decent toast. So now, do we get a new toaster or panini maker?

    New toaster £8
    Panini £20

    I'm guessing one can toast break with the panini maker ... Will it do crumpets and the like too?

    BTW we already have a microwave! Answers preferably before I go to Tescos later!

    Aren't panini toasters just like george forman grills? i think it would be difficult to do toast in them. although crumpets and pitta might be good....

    You could always get both. the toaster is only £8. TEsco probably do a cheaper one anyway, i think they were advertising them at about £5 a while ago

    That is the Tesco one. There is a £5 one, but I don't think some sizes of bread will fit in it.

    Or why not get the Toaster/Pannini Combo-Gizmo* for £28?

    * combo mega grill delivered in two packages, and requires 2 power sockets. Gaffer tape not included.
    They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them.
