Here's what we look for:
- Materials like stainless steel, glass, and ceramic
- 100% PFAS-free nonstick coatings, with ceramic tested for heavy metals
- Aluminum only if it’s hard anodized, ceramic-coated, or safely encased in stainless
- No plastic in contact with food (but we avoid it wherever possible)
- Transparent brands that disclose all materials

How to Swap to Non-Toxic toasters:
Here's how to swap to non-toxic toasters:
What to know about toasters
Toasters heat up quickly and come into direct contact with your food, so the materials inside matter. Welpr focuses on what the cooking surfaces, heating elements, and interior coatings are made of — especially whether plastic, nonstick coatings, or untested materials touch your food during the toasting process.
- The interior walls, crumb tray, and any slots or racks where bread sits are the key contact points to pay attention to.
- Some toasters use nonstick coatings or plastic components near the heating area, which can be a concern at high temperatures.
Review the toaster you already have
Check your toaster's product page, manual, or packaging for details on what the interior is made of. Look for information about the slot lining, crumb tray material, and whether any nonstick coatings are used inside.
- Search the brand's website for your model and look for terms like 'stainless steel interior,' 'PFAS-free,' or 'BPA-free' — vague terms like 'nonstick' without specifics are worth questioning.
- If your toaster has a Prop 65 warning, look into whether it relates to a minor component like the power cord or something closer to the food-contact surfaces.
Use your current toaster more safely
If you're not ready to replace your toaster right away, a few small habits can help reduce contact with less-than-ideal materials. These are especially worth doing if your toaster has nonstick-coated surfaces or plastic near the slots.
- Empty and clean the crumb tray regularly — built-up crumbs that repeatedly heat and reheat on coated surfaces can increase what transfers to your food.
- Use your toaster in a well-ventilated area, especially if you notice any odor when it heats up, and avoid using the highest heat setting more than necessary.
Choose a cleaner replacement
The best toasters use stainless steel for the interior walls, slots, and crumb tray, with no nonstick coatings or plastic near the food-contact areas. Look for models that are transparent about their materials and free from PFAS.
- Prioritize a fully stainless steel interior and avoid models that advertise 'nonstick' slots unless they specify exactly what the coating is and confirm it's PFAS-free.
