Using a toaster usually means having to keep a watchful eye on the appliance in order to prevent your bread from going flying once it's done, but the 'Drop' Toaster aims to change this. Featuring a design that comes as a modern take on the classic toaster, the appliance works by ejecting finished toast out the bottom in order to prevent it from popping up and potentially onto the floor. This will also come as welcome news to anyone who has burned their fingers on hot bread when trying to remove it from their toaster appliance.
The 'Drop' Toaster appliance is the design work of Ishaan Arora and also boasts a wall-mounted design that eliminates the need for countertop space for storage.
