My Cafe - 2007/09/19 19:46 I bought a Toshiba My Cafe in a market a year ago for $25. Its model number HCD-800M. I was wondering if someone could tell me when it was manufactured.

Re:My Cafe - 2007/09/21 09:07 They were manufactured in the 80's by Toshiba - a company that makes all kinds of things.

The MyCafe was huge in the U.S.

Toshiba, which makes electronics, sold some components to a country that the U.S. did not like and in a fit of bilious hegemony, the U.S. state department threw a sanction on Toshiba banning the importation of the coffee makers (not the VCR's and TV's mind you...or zillions of semi-conductors...)
leaving a legion of coffee fans high and dry.

Interestingly, a crafty underground trade of support parts appeared in the U.S. which kept these neat coffee makers alive well into the 21st century.
