What the perfect toaster looks like, however, is really up to you: Do you prefer sliced bread or bagels? Are you a larger household, or will a two-slice machine suffice?

From sleek options with top-of-the-line features like touchscreens and custom cook times to stylish designs that'll double as countertop decor, these 20 toasters are the best of the best.
