Either I'm having insanely good luck or I have extremely low expectations of a toaster, but I genuinely don't understand how a toaster does "bad job".
What were the issues you were having?

My second biggest issue is related to the same mechanism: the "pop" is impotent and does nothing to eject what's being toasted. The most I can hope for is that I can manually push the lever up.
The next biggest issue is with heating element distance. If there's anything that is wider than a slice of wonder bread it's going to get sizzled by the heating element. In the worst cases it causes smoke to be emitted for several runs afterwards.
We've been using a cheapo £10 tesco or argos one for the past few years. It toasts..
I used Dualit in various places, it does as good or bad a job, can't tell the difference.
I love the Dualit idea, but in the end can't justify the price, not for this particular kitchen item.
Every few years I have to shake out the bread remains and that's about all maintenance it gets.
Works like a charm and the outcome is very predictable.
Granted, I only use it for sliced toast bread. But I'm happy with the results.
