Toaster

A toaster is a machine for toasting food such as bread. Toasted bread is called toast.

Although GE released an electric toaster in 1909, The pop-up toaster, which ejects the toast after toasting it, was invented by Charles Strite in 1918.

In 1925, using a redesigned version of Strite's toaster, the Toastmaster Company began to market the first household toaster that could brown bread on both sides simultaneously, set the heating element on a timer, and eject the toast when finished. By 1926, Charles Strite's Toastmaster was available to the public and was a huge success.
