How Toastmaster Shaped the Small Appliance Industry | Celebrating 104...
This month marks 104 years of Toastmaster appliances, a brand that began with a single toaster and grew into one of the most recognized names in small kitchen appliances.
The History of Toastmaster
The story of Toastmaster begins with an inventive problem: how to get perfectly toasted bread without having to stand there and watch it. That problem was solved by Charles P. Strite, a Minnesota engineer and inventor. In 1919, Strite began developing a toaster that would automatically turn off and eject toast to prevent burning. His patent for a pop-up bread toaster, which toasted both sides and auto-ejected, was granted in 1921. To commercialize this breakthrough, Strite teamed up with Glen Waters and Harold Genter, forming the Waters-Genter Company in 1921.
