I'd advise against that. *smile*
I hear that the large toasters are more difficult to clean. And they attract
bacteria, viruses, and worms. In due time, you need to throw the bread away
and buy it afresh. The shop will give no refunds, either. And the large
toaster will cease to work unless you plug an antenna to it.
