Lever won't stay down when depressed (ie pushed down, not sad)

Have tried that but didn't work. It never needed a switch to stay down. Just recently happened.

Toaster lever just won't stay down. If you hold the lever down, the toaster works fine, but if you let go of the handle the toast just pops up again. Can you help me on this one? Thank you.

This is the same problem my toaster is having. It was okay one morning and 24 hours later the lever won't stay down to begin the toasting. Changed outlets so that's not the problem. Mine is about 2-3 years old and has never been anywhere except where it sits. It has been cared for and cleaned, never abused. So is this a piece of junk?

Try pushing it down with more force
maybe check the manual or maybe theres a switch to make it stay..

Is there anythign that shows it is working when its plug it in other words: is the power getting to it ?
IF it gets power itprobably means the locking mechanism inside is broken. if its worth it, unplug it, open it and see if you can manually fix it. if not, your best bet would be to get a new one.
