Toasters are one of those kitchen appliances that many people take for granted, until it comes time to replace them. When your morning toast continually comes out burned, or you need to hover over your toaster continually checking if your toast in golden brown, it may be time to consider looking around at new models.

When you need a new toaster you should first consider what general features you need before you get sold on any additional “luxury” specifications you may want.

General Features:

Slice Capacity: The primary feature of any toaster oven is the capacity of the toaster. This will generally vary from two to six, with two and four slice models being the most common. In the main, if there are going to be more than two people needing toast at a time then you should consider at least a four slice model.

Safe-to-Touch Exterior: This safety feature is especially important if you have young ones in the house, who may not understand about touching the outside of a hot toaster. Most toasters will have this as a standard but budget models could forgo this feature is lower costs.

Toast Darkness Control: This simple addition will ensure you have perfectly golden toast, time and again. The settings will allow for toasting of different types of bread, from thinner bread through to the denser seed loaves. Merely adjust the dial for your toast type and you’ll have perfect toast every time.

Removable Crumb Tray: After a few months of use the toaster’s mechanism can fill up with crumbs that have dropped off your toast. This can become messy and even be a health hazard. The inclusion of a removable crumb tray allows you the effortlessly dispose of the crumb build up, by removing and cleaning the crumb tray.

These basic features are important to take into account when making your purchasing decision, and will be the basis for any fully featured toaster.

We all have known that toasters are a staple to any bachelor pad, but in a resent survey of 1,000 women, 73% of women stated that the color of guy’s toaster enhanced their level of attraction. The black toaster turned girls on to guys the most, followed by red and then white. According to the survey, the size of the toaster had little effect on women. So guys, makes you want to think a little more closely next time you shell out a few bucks for a new toaster huh.

Dr. Dario from the College of Scientific Attraction recently dug into this survey a bit more to try to see how a toaster could enhance the level of attraction a female had for a male. He concluded in his published work on the matter (The Attraction of The Toaster Vol 1) that it wasn’t just one element of the toaster that produced this attraction but several components together. He concluded this by placing a woman in a room with 2 toasters of the exact same color and shape. The woman was asked a series of questions by a male who was hidden behind a curtain.

The woman’s heart rate, breathing patterns, and condensation levels were measured. She was first asked to lightly place her hand over a warm toaster as opposed to a cold one. The warmth of the black toaster increased the woman’s heart rate by 30% in response to the man’s request. The second command was for the woman to gently sniff the toaster 6 min after both toasters had toasted bread at different heat levels. The toaster that toasted the bread almost to the point of the bread burning decreased the woman’s breathing by 20% compared to the one that toasted the bread to perfection. Because of these two outcomes, Dr Dario proved that it wasn’t just the color that increased the woman’s drive, but also a combination of factors that positively or negatively affected the senses.

There are lots of stores for you to buy 4 slice toasters. You can find some in the mall, market, some individuals and the internet.

When you decide to purchase your toaster at the mall or the market make sure to select the best toaster that you can by inspecting it thoroughly. You should always keep in mind the common tips that people give you when buying appliances so that you don’t ever regret your decision.

First of all, Check the warranty. If the warranty of the 4 slice toaster has a long span, this gives you more time to allow things to go wrong. 4 slice toasters are usually a minimum price of $40, although depending on special and unique features, the price range can reach up to $290 – $390. If ordering on the internet you have to remember that there is a shipping fee, so it might not be as as you expected. Also, it is always better to see personally how the toaster works and how the toaster will fit in your kitchen before buying. You also want to make sure that it fits your personal taste.

If you are new to buying toasters you might want to ask for assistance from the sales staff. Just remember to always read the manual of the chosen toaster. It is very important for you to read the manual to find out the advantages and disadvantages of your chosen toaster. I Prefer devices that have wider and longer slots so that they can be easily cleaned.
