Dualit vs. Breville toasters?

[mkatieq]

My Dualit toaster broke yesterday. When I try to turn it on it flips the breaker. My husband is an electrical engineer and has confirmed that it is, in fact broken. I can't really complain after having it for 12 years without a single problem. I am inclined to purchase another one, but wanted to see if anyone has an opinion on Dualit vs Breville or another recommendation. Thoughts?

There are new Dualit repair parts (heating elements, timer switch, etc) for sale on Ebay.

In case anyone is interested or has a broken Dualit, I found a local store that will repair it for me! It's the same guy who has been servicing my vacuum for years. I called him on a whim and and thrilled that he works on Dualit.
