Debating either or not to unplug your toaster may seem a minute trivial, inspecting all the other things most of us are mental about these days. On the other hand, avoiding a house fire might by doing something as trivial as unplugging a toaster not be such a bad thing, inspecting all you have to lose to this kind of disaster.
Recently, one of our staff members averted a house fire that could have started from her toaster. A toaster that was not in use. While she was making breakfast, she was distracted by a funny noise arrival from her toaster. Knowing that it nothing, she dismissed the sound. Only minutes later, she smelled smoke and realized it was arrival from her toaster. She quickly unplugged it and threw it outside in the snow.
According to consumer Reports, her palpate isn't as unusual as you might think. In its February 2008 issue, they say that leaving a toaster or toaster oven plugged in - even when it's not in use - is thought about "risky behaviour". A series of recalls while the last 10 years or so reserve this theory. In March of last year alone, the consumer stock protection Commission announced a recall of 482,000 Hamilton Beach and Proctor-Silex toasters because the toasters "can remain 'on' (energized) after popping up, and can ignite flammable items outside or in palpate with the toaster, posing a fire hazard."
So before you dismiss the idea of unplugging your toaster as reactionary or even a minute bit obsessive, you should maybe reconsider the risks. What if our staff member hadn't been in the kitchen or even at home when her toaster candidly turned on? Or worse? What if she and her house had been sleeping? By simply unplugging your toaster, you take off all risk of danger to you, your house and your home.
Consumer Reports agrees, advising citizen to use common sense and be safe by just unplugging the thing. "Most citizen know they should unplug heating appliances after use". If you nothing else but want to walk on the wild side, try an adventure sport. Just be sure to unplug your toaster before you go.
