Does the toaster have any ELECTRONIC components?
For example, some of the fancier toasters have electronic temperature controls to enable the device to consistently produce the same darkness of toast slice after slice.
Some toasters also have an electromagnet that holds the bread grills down when you press the lever instead of a mechanical catch hooked up to the thermostat.
You can tell when you're dealing with one of those when you unplug the toaster and try to press the lever down. It won't stay down. An old-fashioned conventional toaster would let you click the handle in place even if it's not plugged in.
