The 5 Best Long-Slot Toasters

June 11,2024

Home-baked bread and artisan bread won’t fit into regular toasters. Here are your long-slot options for still getting them toasty..
Cuisinart’s “The Bakery” is 14.75 inches across, so it’ll fit two smaller slices in each slot, or one longer, fancier, more delicious one. It also has six toast settings, defrost and reheat functions, a pull-out crumb tray, and a classic chrome finish. .
Looking at reviewers’ top-rated long-slot toasters brings us to the Breville Lift and Look, which is 15.5 inches long with five toast settings and still managed to hang on to four stars after 1,048 reviews. As one recent buyer said: “Bought this because I like artisan bread, which is usually long. This [toaster] is quick, and easy to get the setting right, which will be lower for plain white breads but higher for hard-crust artisan breads. I love the ‘30 seconds more’ feature, which allows me to guess low when I change bread types and adjust up on the fly. Can do two long artisan breads or four regular bread slices.” .
Breville’s pricier long-slot smart toaster, at 14.9 inches across, is also a fan favorite. The lift-and-look feature allows users to pop up and see the bread without interrupting the toasting process. Here’s what one reviewer had to say: “Love the ability to adjust size of bread (bagel) and also toast just one side. Also love all the other features: toast a little more, lift to see, status light … For me, the cost of this item is worth it. Best toaster I’ve ever had.” .
What the Toast Toaster gives up in inches (this one’s the shortest at 14 inches across here), it makes up for in design cred. It’s made in Italy and was designed in 1997 by Gae Aulenti, whose work is featured in MoMA’s permanent collection.
