Every electrical appliance can waste energy in some way; usually by heating the untargeted parts of an appliances, or sound energy. E.g:
Electrical heater: heat, light from the glowing element
Toaster: heating the toast, heating the toaster itself, wire and surroundings
Hairdryer: KE of the fan and heating the filament/ anything inside the fan, sound and heating the hairdryer itself
Computer disc: energy stored in magnestic dots on the disc, energy heating the motor that drives the disc
An electrical appliance is designed for a particular purpose and should waste as little energy as possible
