Whether youâre a bagel fiend or a croissant fanatic, most of us are still searching for that perfect piece of bread. Step one is a good toaster. These reasonably priced versions under $60 make it easy.
I know, I know, weâre all sick of the word âartisanâ, but donât overlook the Artisan 4 Slice Toaster by Homeart. It has a real retro style, a range of highly specific settings that are easy to use, and it delivers on both the bagel and the toast front. It was also voted toaster of the year in 2019 (ooh lala!)
Say goodbye to levers, this smart toaster allows you to exact your toast with just the press of a button. It also has a nifty âA Bit Moreâ feature so you can get the exact right crispiness, and even a âLift and Lookâ button for us impatient folks.
If you canât help opening the oven while cooking, then the Dash 2 Slice Toaster is for you. Watch through the viewing window as your bread reaches the perfect shade. Never burn another piece of toast (unless youâre one of those sickos who loves burnt toast?).
Cuisinart is the holy grail of kitchen appliance brands, and their CPT-180 Metal Classic 4-Slice toaster is predictably tops. This is truly the ultimate bagel fanâs toaster.
While a toaster is an appliance, it is also something that sits on your countertop day in and day out. Therefore, it should be beautiful. Smeg makes a classic, retro designed toaster that will make you feel like youâre in an episode of Mad Men. It even comes with bamboo tongs so you donât burn your fingers.
The Oster 2 Slice Toaster is the perfect choice for anyone who hates a messy kitchen (Oster invented the removable crumb tray!!). Itâs a classic for good reason.
The LOFTER Stainless Steel Bread Toaster scores extra points for its nifty heating rack, ideal for rolls or pastries that donât fit in a traditional toaster slot. You really canât beat this adaptable (and compact!) option.
