toaster

also called pop-up toaster

A cooking appliance that browns slices of bread held upright in vertical slots between radiant elements, ejecting them when a browning timer elapses. Beyond any cooking appliance's heat regulation (here a browning/doneness level) it answers its slot count (how many slots it toasts at once) and its slot type (standard, wide for bagels, or long). A long-slot toaster is a toaster with slot type 'long' (a geometry, not a separate kind). Distinct from a toaster oven (an enclosed radiant cavity that bakes and broils, not a vertical-slot pop-up) and from a sandwich/contact grill (which presses and heats both faces). A non-powered stovetop toasting frame is a different, unpowered tool, not a member here.
