What makes the Trap Door Toaster so unique?
Trap Door Toaster
For some unknown reason, toasters seem to be redesigned more than any other kitchen appliance. The 1,400-watt Trap Door Toaster is no one-trick pony; it toasts and then, without further adieu, drops down the finished item, be it bagel or white bread, through a trapdoor and onto a serving tray. The drop down concept eliminates the eject process, which is kind of a power trip anyway on the part of the toasted or toastee (or whatever the correct term is for the one who eats the product of the toaster). There will be no more scalding of fingertips, which is a common occurrence with traditional toasters when impatient fingers attempt to lift the slices out from hot-to-handle slots.
