Email from landlord about appliances being left plugged in and the appliances in question…

Does anyone actually unplug their TOASTER between uses?

Edit to answer common questions:

  • We pay the utilities separately from our rent! Our landlord doesn't handle the electric bill in any way, shape, or form.
  • They gave us 24 hours' notice before the inspection, which is standard in the US. From my understanding of the lease, I don't think we are allowed to decline inspections. :(
  • Our lease does not state anything about unplugging appliances when they are not in use
  • Our landlord uses a company to manage everything. So we get hit with a double whammy of our landlord's feelings and the company's rules

Thank you all for your input and recommendations! I have learned SO much. After hearing all of the horror stories/general fear about house fires being caused by rogue toasters, I will unplug it between uses (BUT only because I feel like it and not because my landlord told me to 😚)
