Rowenta

One slot for two slices—that's the genius of Jasper Morrison's slender TL-90 toaster in white polypropylene and brushed steel. Not only does a built-in photo sensor ensure that bread gets evenly browned, but cleanup is also a breeze, thanks to a removable, dishwasher-safe crumb tray. 196 Boston Avenue, Medford, MA 02155; 781-396-0600; rowentausa.com. circle 331
