The upper heating elements of my Toastmaster toaster/oven/broiler curved towards the top of the inside toaster ( looks like they’re melting!?) and, of course, is not heating food in the right way! The toaster it’s in very good conditions, but the warranty expired 3 years ago. Does anybody know if thoose heating elements can be replaced? Can I find them in a store? Thanks!

not much any more, better to replace it
I do not know the answer. My opinion is; to better of to buy a new one. Much safer and maybe less work-cheaper in comparison.
only as stated,, by one of the few remaining repair people,,, i used to be one,, but the cost o the heating element would almost pay for a new toaster!! most everything is disposable now,,, not in stores you’d have to special order from a catalog,,,not worth it anymore…
There was a couple of old timers a while back that repiared toasters. They would rewire then and be as good as new. If you can find some one it can be done as long as it did,t damage any thing inside and the mica board is in good condition
The last time I took one apart with a problem like that I found that the power wires were spot welded onto the heating wires. Unless you know someone who can do that it doesn’t pay to buy replacement heating elements because you can’t finish the repair.
Probably, yes. But it’s probably more economical to throw the old one away and buy a new oven. Not to mention safer. What else have the coils been melting?
