This Shiny Connected Toaster Uses Your Smartphone to Remember Your Perfect Toasting Settings

It’s one of the simplest appliances in your kitchen, but how many times have you popped bread in a toaster, only to have it nuke your slice because the previous user had it set to well done? Too often, which is why Griffin Technology’s shiny new Connected Toaster isn’t that absurd of an idea. The…

A Charging Station Camouflaged As a Toaster Banishes Crumbs and Cables

Most multi-device charging solutions are kind of an eyesore, but we’re all used to seeing a toaster sitting on a kitchen counter, right? That’s the theory behind the Foaster which camouflages a charging dock as a household appliance. The inside of the Foaster can be configured with charging ports for whichever mobile devices you regularly…

A Humidifying Toaster Ensures Breakfast Isn’t a Dried-Out Disappointment

Did you know that you’ve been toasting bread wrong all this time? Well, maybe not wrong, but vastly inferior to how Balmuda’s new humidifying toaster oven can do it. The intelligent appliance ensures your toast comes out not only perfectly browned on both sides, but also still soft and fluffy on the inside. But don’t…

Can an olympic cyclist cycle hard enough to toast bread?

It’s an easy joke to say that you can power your electronics by just getting on a hamster wheel or riding a bike but the truth is, it’s really, really tough to do in real time. And we’re not even Olympic athletes. German track cyclist Robert Förstemann is and even with his watermelon-sized thighs, he…

This Toaster Turns Tortillas Into Tasty Taco Shells

As far as kitchen unitaskers go, Alton Brown would be horrified at this toaster that’s actually only able to turn fresh home-made flour or corn tortillas into hard-shelled tacos. You cram a piece of bread in there and you’ll probably be getting a (much appreciated) visit from your local fire department. But since soft tortillas…

What Do the Numbers on Toasters Mean?

Ever wondered what the numbers on your toaster… really… mean? This video explains. It certainly isn’t minutes, as the head-to-head toast race in the video explains. In fact, it turns out that they don’t really mean anything of real merit. Different toasters use different methods to time time their heating—be it a bi-metallic strip that…

A Genuinely Smarter Toaster That Guarantees Perfect Toast

You’d think by now, after at least 100 years of development, mankind would have perfected the toaster. Burnt bread is still an all too common problem, though, but maybe, just maybe, Dualit has finally found a solution with a new toaster that measures the room conditions to help ensure perfect browning. Your standard given-away-free-with-a-new-checking-account toaster…

This Glass Toaster Costs $1,000—But It Can Cook Steak

It’s fair to say, not all toasters are created equal. But the Bugatti Noun is a god amongst toasters, a futurist but elegant combination of glass and chrome that would stand out in any kitchen.

A Toaster Oven With a Bread Slot For When Pizza’s Not On the Menu

There are entire cookbooks dedicated to preparing meals using only a toaster oven, but most of us only ever use them for reheating pizza. So it seems like kind of a waste to have one sitting on the kitchen counter all the time. Unless it’s the Toastation by Hamilton Beach, which adds traditional toaster functionality…

A Toaster For a Single Slice of Bread Is Nothing To Be Sad About

Most people’s first reaction to a toaster with just a single slot is to feel pity on the lonely soul who would need such a device. But that’s the wrong reaction to have here. The pity part is ok—but not because the probable owner of this toaster must be single and lonely. It’s more likely…

This Slim Toaster Has Clever Heated Pockets To Keep Your Toast Warm

Here’s the trade-off: if you want a slim toaster that doesn’t gobble up too much counter space, you’re going to be limited to how much toast you can make. But the Easy Toaster from Russel Hobbs incorporates a nice workaround. You can only toast two slices of bread at one time, but a pair of…

Wow, This Is a Hilariously Dumb Thing To Do With a Toaster

When you stick anything metal into a toaster that’s plugged in, something like this will happen. This is a pretty extreme/dumbass case, but something bad will happen. Every time. No no. No need to test it. This is what’s up. What if it’s a fork? Risk of electrocution. Spatula? Explosion. Tongs? Kaboom. If you’re still…

You’ll be hard-pressed to find a multi-slice toaster lacking an automatic pop-up feature these days.
