    If you prefer to avoid single-purpose kitchen appliances, then you will prefer toaster ovens to toasters. (Also, a normal oven can do.)

    A toaster oven is also the superior appliance for making toast as it can toast bread that has already been loaded up with things like butter or peanut butter.

    I think I see one toaster oven in the list, listed as D tier, which makes sense for that one because it has a built-in coffee maker.

    But where’s the normal toaster oven in this list? That would be S-tier.

    Only acceptable design is A-tier, all others are unnecessarily restrictive in size and dimensions of the food to toast. Only idiots limit themselves to sliced bread.

    Where’s the Breville Smart Toaster Oven Pro? I don’t see a picture of the Breville Smart Toaster Oven Pro. You must have accidentally forgotten to include the Breville Smart Toaster Oven Pro.

      It’s called a Pie Iron. You butter two pieces of bread and put them butter down onto the cast iron and fill it with whatever you want with your sandwich. It then closes up and you latch it closed and stick it into a fire pit to cook.

      Amazing camping snacks.

    Those “c-tier” motorised hotel-buffet ones are kinda goated for their use case. Stupid for home use of course.

      I still have burn scars on my knuckles from working at a bagel restaurant that used one of those when I was a teenager.

      They still have plenty of issues. The ones I used never toast the bread well enough in one pass (because different types of bread require different time), so you have to wait in front of it and pass it multiple times. The controls are speed and power and it’s not easy to calibrate perfectly but once you put your bread in it even if you can see it’s burning you can’t just take it out, it has to pass through the entire machine. I’ve also seen cases where the bread will get stuck inside or go down the slide to fast and end up on the floor. I will take traditional toaster over them every time.

    You should change this.

    An AI powered toaster would clearly stand head over heels above all the rest of these posers…

    Just use more AI bro. Just one more is all you need.

    As a Brit, almost all of these are an abomination and an affront to God’s plans.

      I use my airfryer. 3-4 minutes and it’s perfectly toasted.

      I tossed my a-tier style toaster half a year ago because the “done” ping sounded like a god damn smoke detector going off. Couldn’t toast a piece of bread in the morning without waking the whole building.
