Smeg 2-Slice Retro Toaster
The Smeg Retro Toaster is the appliance you buy because you're tired of ugly kitchen gadgets. The 1950s Italian design with chrome accents and powder-coated steel is genuinely beautiful — it's the kind of thing guests comment on. Beyond looks, it's a solid toaster: 6 browning levels, extra-wide slots for bagels and thick bread, self-centering racks for even toasting, and defrost/reheat/bagel functions. The stainless steel crumb tray slides out easily for cleaning. Is it the best-performing toaster in the world? No — you're partially paying for design. But it toasts well, it lasts (all-steel body), and it makes your kitchen look fantastic. Available in 10+ colors.
Why we picked this
A 1950s-inspired toaster that's equal parts functional and gorgeous.
