The microwave has its place on the side but the toaster, we've always kept in the cupboard, never really thought about it, kitchen just looks tidier without the toaster on the side,
And yeah we get it out and put it back after every use. It's just too big to leave out all the time, same with the George Foreman and food processor/mixer, they're all massive appliances so they're kept in cupboards until needed.
The only thing that stays out all the time is the kettle, if we kept the Foreman, Toaster and processor out all the time we'd have nowhere to prepare food lol
