A broken machine after one year's use was unacceptable. I'm tempted tpo get a bresad machine but I have so little counter space that I would have to store it in my basement and probably forget to use it.<br /><br /><br />I love your Abraham Lincoln magnet!

Find a number to call Oster (email is ok, letters are ok, but you'll do best with the old fashioned phone call!). <br /><br />More than likely they'll send you one and then have you return the old one. You don't need to feel obligated to let them know you turned down an extended warranty. The warranty is not their product, it's a third party. Tell them you used it fewer than ten times and are soooooo disappointed.

You are mighty nice to do this for your readers. Nothing more fun than a giveaway.....<br /><br />Well, regarding the dead bread machine...dang it....I was thinking of trying to save for one but if they last no longer than thru 10 loaves of bread, I better hold off, I guess. i've noticed that there seems to be quite a few for sale at my local thrift shop....wonder why??? :))bjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04432398383127199206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-82865693948680330092012-02-16T22:47:02.309-05:002012-02-16T22:47:02.309-05:00Oh, I love magnets!

I highly recommend that you save those pennies up and get a Kitchenaid. We got a used one in 1985 and used it constantly until last year. Then hubby decided to get a BIGGER one with a more powerful motor for making breads. The old one still worked, but he wanted a new one. As I always attest, my sweetie can buy ANY kitchen appliance he wants because he does the cooking. Whatever he wants, I say yes, Yes, YES. Hence, the Dacor cooktop too, LOL.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347598432040432610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-49863634902067780302012-02-16T22:28:16.894-05:002012-02-16T22:28:16.894-05:00Loving the magnets.

Yes, they are not built to last anymore. We were told that when we were shopping for a new over the range microwave last summer at S---s. They are warrented for a year and if they break it's cheaper to throw them away and buy new. Crazy eh? How are you making the magnets? With the glass beads for vases and paper? How do you glue it on? I think they are really sweet and you are too! Bye for now.

I think that you are on to something with the "planned obsolescence" theory! <br /><br />I think that you are cranking out some lovely products in that magnet factory of yours! I'll just bet that they last more than a year. And I would be delighted to test that theory. :-D<br /><br />P.S. Admittedly, the bird cookies are quite an ambitious project! We are hoping to make ONE kind of bird...and will post the results if they are not TOO embarrassing.

My first one lasted years and years and I used it all the time. After a few years it started making a weird sound and Ken took it a part and tightened a belt or something in it and it worked fine again.<br />I guess I've had this second one now for about a year or so. It is an Oster and so far it has been great. I can't even remember what my first one was.happyonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14186179870233267082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-45349030357701420252012-02-16T15:25:18.663-05:002012-02-16T15:25:18.663-05:00Ha!

I have a bread maker I rarely use now, it's the same brand, but it held up for several years of regular workouts and still works fine, but I make bread another way now.<br /><br />On another note, my camera book arrived. So far, I've learned that I can adjust the viewfinder to suit my eye. Not that I have ever used the viewfinder, but if the sun ever decides to really shine, I will. <br /><br />Love the magnets.

I've had mine for at least 10 years and before that I had another one for several years. It still worked, but the little dough hook got lost in our move and I couldn't find a replacement.<br />I have made English muffin bread before and think it makes the best toast. Will check out your link.<br />The magnet factory is putting out some really pretty products. I like how the images almost seem magnified and I think the glass imperfections make them even more interesting.Happy@Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748146424809856063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-62021393899517215902012-02-16T13:44:28.768-05:002012-02-16T13:44:28.768-05:00Love those little magnets....I've made quite a...Love those little magnets....I've made quite a few for gifts myself...but never have I been gifted any....how fun that would be:) <br />Thanks for the bread link....I'm off to have a peep.
