It's a no brainer - a microwave is great for porridge and healthy veg!

I can't do without a microwave. when we book holiday self catering accom I always check for a microwave - how else can I warm soup, porridges etc.

Microwaves are the necessity in the modern world

Toaster! I haven't had a microwave for the last 3 years and haven't missed it at all. You can't make decent toast in a microwave!

microwave is a must!

Got to be a microwave!!

defenitly a microwave

Definitely a toaster, I don't even own a microwave!

Toaster! Think about it. You can smile at the thought of a toaster, but a microwave....?

I voted don't know but actually neither. I'd have a real fire. You can toast and cook properly on that!

get an electrician in...

You can boil water in a microwave. Can live without toast but cannot live without tea!

toaster! Although if there was an open fire you can pretty much cook anything.

Nice idea for a debate :-) I was going to pick toaster until I read the comment from Seat Dreams Upholstery about bread!! So have now decided to go with the microwave as its a lot more versatile and you can make many dishes in it :-)

Hello Anthony Edwards Kitchens,

Oh what fun! I also enjoyed Seat Dreams response... Now lets see.. The toaster could burn whatever is put into it and possibly send a smoke S.O.S (as they do) (but not so gr8 if you're in a two bed semi in basingstoke) and if you then found despite your endeavours, you were cast away for a year and a day (Sans football) and could take it no more.. You could then if you were greedy and had the microwave too make a *%#*@%! This may send a bigger S.O.S and possibly make all the difference in the world... : ))

Have never owned a microwave so would have to be a toaster

microwaves all the time. far more useful
