Toastation devices come in multiples of 2 slice models, which is entirely disconvenient--usually resulting in waste heat or waste toasted bread--when assembling the traditional double-decker Club(house) sandwich.
Enter the three-slice toaster--capable of accepting various widths of bread--which,
in one swell foop, toasts all three slices of bread needed for the club, with no waiting for the third slice (as when using the common 2-slice toaster).
Also useful when toast is served to couples with a 'one child only' policy, the cast of Three's Company, the Three Bears, Winken, Blinken and Nod, the Three Stooges and similar.
Comes with attached container of extra-long toothpick skewers with little coloured frilly bits on the end.

I have one of those Dualit 3 slots. It's a fine
instrument devoid of any digital rubbish. |

A lot of companies make fragile plastic junk and try to sell it for three times its value by claiming it has "features". This pissed me off, but I really blew my top when I read "redefining quality" in a business textbook that advocated that practice. I'm a neophile: a forward-looking lover of technology and science. But I share your revulsion of e-garbage with a passion. It's insulting, bad for the environment, bad for the consumer, and obvious. They may as well put "you'll pay what we charge, retard" on the packaging. |

[Voice], yes, we agree about the e-waste. This is not a junky gimmicky toaster. This is an analog toaster, clunky, steel body, substantial, no corn-based plastic cord for the mice to chew. |

The reusable biodegradable container of bamboo skewers is a convenience meant to hold the quarters of the first few club sandwiches together. Like the tiny 'taster' bottle of whisky attached to the neck of the full-size Crown Royal bottle, it's a little extra, just for fun. |

I've seen 4-slice models, but not 3-slice. |
|

^Just check out those links there are plenty of
three slice toasters! |
|

The Dualit toasters (not the cheap Dualits, the proper, original
Dualits) also have the benefit of being repairable. When, after a few
decades of regular use, the timer, or a heating element breaks, you
can order a new part and fit it yourself. |

I can confirm, [hippo]. We have had a Dualit toaster for a
long time now... one of the industrial ones. |
|
| |
[RS] you could get a 4-slice one and stick gaffer tape over one of the slots. |
|
| |
I love the smell of burning gaffer tape in the
morning |
|
| |
Well use tinfoil then. Why do I have to do all the thinking here? |
|
| |
It's your day in the rotation. It works sorta like the V
that geese fly in. |
