A bead appearance inspection device includes an input unit configured to enter input data related to a welding bead of a workpiece produced by welding, and a determination unit configured to perform an inspection determination related to a shape of the welding bead based on the input data. The determination unit determines which of a range of a value indicating a non-defective product zone, a range of a value indicating a gray zone, and a range of a value indicating a defective product zone a value obtained from the input data belongs to. The range of the value indicating the gray zone is between the range of the value indicating the non-defective product zone and the range of the value indicating the defective product zone.
