    Pretentious baloney. Any toaster oven can do these toasts! Big deal! My toaster oven can do all you did, and cook meat like a steak as well. I also paid $80!

    I have bought the Balmuda toaster and own it for nearly 2 years. It is the greatest appliance I have ever bought. I have used it for so many different food and it's fun to experiment what settings are preferrable.

    It's fun to learn that the names for each settings is different. In Asia and Europe, you have the Cheese Bread mode. I live in America, and that setting and image is the Pizza Setting. I think someone who handles region distribution did a good job updating the names based on where the product is selling.

    Thanks for the video. Cheers.

    I was watching this and decided to make some toast using a similar method in my standard cheap electric oven under the grill. Preheated it to very hot (275C) then put the slices of bread on the top shelf and 1/2 cup of water into a baking tray much lower down which had been in there as the grill heated up. Immediate steam cloud, closed the oven door. Turned it when it was golden brown, let the other side toast the same.

    PERFECT crisp-fluffy middle-chewy toast.

    Immediately buttered and marmaladed.

    Conclusion: I still sort of want this little tiny toast oven. And it’s less wasteful of energy than my method.
    BUT I now don’t need to buy another expensive appliance and find somewhere to store it.

    I’m going to try buttering the ‘raw’ side before toasting next time to fully replicate the video method using a grill. But I’m pretty damn happy with this discovery.

    And then you slab baked beans with tomatosauce on the bread . What does it matter how the bread is. English are insane🤣😂

    If it came in UK voltage and not 120v i would buy one. Buying an invertor just for this naw no way.

    No blinking is a toaster worth $250. I fell dumber, have watched this advertisement, and you two should be ashamed having said it was worth it.

    Come on guys £260 for a toaster, you need your head looked at. My microwave, kettle and pop-up toaster did not even come to that.

    I appreciate the fact that we get an insight into a variety of different kitchen gadgets which are typically inaccessible to the majority of people because they’re just too expensive, but this video only irked me because I was just constantly questioning why a toaster has been so over engineered yet is still only half as efficient as a regular toaster 😂😂 my £10 toaster toasts 4 slices of bread pretty quickly and toast is just toast 😂

    2:52 the bottom is burnt and not a word was said about it, sure it didn't look horrible but burnt toast even just a bit ruins a lot of the taste and that looked burnt throughout most of the bottom middle.
