In the UK context, there seem to still be at least on "local" company: https://www.dualit.com/collections/toasters You can get NA versions, but they aren't cheap. I'm not sure why that company survived and US variants didn't.

I used one of these at a hotel recently and the toast quality was second to none. When my current toaster bites the dust I'll be investing in one of these. I'm fed up with buying cheap stuff that's designed to break after 3 years.
