    10 Toasters of the Future

    All we really want out of life is toasty perfection: Crispy but chewy, brown and beautiful. Despite the super glossy designs, it surprises me how much the future of toast works just like now. [Yanko]

    Fagor Flat Toaster Makes Me Question Everything

    At Giz, we're in the habit of introducing new products every day, and in the world of gadgetry, specialty kitchen products are a dime a dozen. Today, though, I was taken by surprise by the simplest of inventions: a flat, barbecue-style toaster. When I spotted the Fagor TP-2006 X (with "acoustic warning device") on Appliancist today, not only did the form of it surprise me, but—after a little Googling—so did the fact that the flat toaster is not a new concept: More »

    A Steak Toaster. Did You Hear Me? I Said a Steak Toaster

    Sometimes, you just want a steak and you don't want to go through a whole process to get it. Who wants to light the grill just so you can have one measly steak? Why make a whole production out of it? What you need, my friend, is a steak toaster. More »

    All-in-One Breakfast With the Toaster Teapot

    Enjoying toast and tea is a luxury for us bloggers, who often dine on flat, room temperature soda and animal crackers in order to save money for heat, power and a 103-inch TV. Nevertheless, if we did enjoy her Majesty's official libations, it would be with this Toaster Teapot that combines the two. Whether it's a good idea to have liquid INSIDE A TOASTER is a question for philosophers and coroners, but it's only £29.95 ($58), so at least it's a cheap death.

    If You Can't Afford a Bugatti Car, Maybe You Can Afford Their Toaster

    I really hope this trend dies soon: Yet another high-end auto maker is jumping into the gadget/home appliance business, giving non-rich people the chance to spend way too much money on something just because of a brand name, even if they can't afford a six-figure car. This time it's Bugatti, bringing their experience with engineering sports cars into the equally fast-paced world of toasters. Wow, how incredibly lame. Sorry Bugatti, but no matter how fancily designed your toaster is, and despite the fact that you have the balls to charge $300 for a toaster, it's not hip or cool. You're tarnishing your brand, bros. I hope it's worth it. [Product Page via Crave]

    Toasty the Toaster Burns Your Toast in Retro Style

    Those kooky designers are feeding our toast fetish again this morning, and this time it's Toasty, a design concept for a cassette deck–style toaster. Designer Arthur Wu tips his hat to the old cassette deck tilt-away routine while catering to that loneliest number, one, which is all this retro-chic postmodern toast-o-matic can handle. More »

    Pop Art Toaster: What, No Jesus Face?

    This "pop art" toaster (so clever, these marketers) comes with six preset designs, and none of them feature any religious iconography that'll net you 10 grand on eBay. Which begs the question: Why would you want to burn lame, cutesy designs like flowers into your toast? They just make your toast taste burnt. If I wanted burnt toast and cheese, I'd make a grilled cheese, not drop $35 on this toaster. – Matt Buchanan More »

    Toaster's See-Through Plastic Makes Smoke and Flames More Dramatic

    IDEO Designer Stefan Post Thomas Brisebras must like his toast, so much so that now he's gone off the deep end and designed his own toaster made out of plastic. It's a very special kind of plastic, though, called Ultrason, and it's heat-resistant up to 428 degrees Farenheit. Heck, that's about where I made some toast burst into flames one time. More »
