Week 4: Design Disaster

Meet my toaster. It seems innocent enough, useful even, given the quantity of English muffins that I eat. But there is a major design flaw - the top (see right) is made of a material that conducts heat. The way I imagine that people learn this is either by a) touching it and getting burned (ouch!), or b) leaving the package of English muffins on top of the toaster and having the plastic bag melt to the top (also, see right).
