My friends drove down recently to Seattle from Vancouver to buy a Robot
Coupe from Williams-Sonoma as, for some strange reason, RC is not
available in Canada. It's French still and built like the proverbial
brick sh-- house!
I have a Cuisinart that is approaching 30 years of age and has been used
a lot for bread making, inter alia, the windings sometimes smelling:-)
It's still going strong perhaps because it was made in Japan. If it ever
packs up, I'll do the same as my friends!
