Sure the toaster is a standard addition to any kitchen counter, but if you’re a die-hard breakfast fan like we are, or perhaps you’re wanting to upgrade your appliances to make your kitchen more aesthetically pleasing, then you’ll be pleased to know that toaster technology is not what it used to be.
Long gone are the days for a simple white block that may or may not burn your bread before setting the kitchen alarm off and leaving the kids (or yourself) hungry for the day. Now there are endless high-tech and stylish options on the market.
From touch screens to multiple slice toasting capabilities, the varieties and options to choose from are truly endless, and this doesn’t mean you have to break the bank to find a more than basic appliance.
Below, we have taken the liberty of rounding up our favourite toasters to shop in Australia. So read on and get to toasting.

It’s impossible to talk appliances without mentioning Smeg. The cult brand is famous for its retro-style small appliances and it’s not hard to see why. Although the products are a bit of a splurge, they’re clearly timeless.

Simple yet stunning, this elegant toaster fits right in to the layout of your kitchen and looks timeless with stainless steel and a natural stone textured finish.
As easy to use as it is stunning on the counter, this toaster can be considered more of a piece of art than it is appliance, although it still gets the job done.
Compact, convenient and easy to use with some added style for the most important room of the house. You can check the progress of your toast using the LED progress indicator, ‘Lift and Look’ or request ‘A Bit More’.
Yes, it is a bit of a splurge – but this high-tech toaster does everything but bake the bread. You can toast four slices at once, changing the setting for each side to cut down on time waiting around for your turn.
