You mean you don’t want a $300 toaster with a screen that connects to WiFi so it can show you your own pictures and tell you the weather and I don’t fucking know, schedule toasting? And probably inevitably not work because core functionality is server sided and when they inevitably fail or at least sunset the product bc no one but rich people who flex their cash are buying this dumb shit you’re left with a brick because they turned the servers off
It’s also $100 more expensive at Williams Sonoma if you really want to flex your cash
Are you even a real connected-appliance enthusiatst when you didn’t even link the R180 connect PLUShttps://revcook.com/products/r180-connect-plus-smart-toaster
Which is $100 more and seems to be exactly the same, with the addition of 22 more useless “bread profiles”
I remember seeing this thing a while ago and scoffing, but actually reading it now, it’s even more absurd. “Our most customizable toasting experience”… Ugh.
Lmao that’s probably why the Williams Sonoma listing was $100 more (hopefully)
But it has InstaGLO® 2.0 technology, reaching full heat in seconds, searing the bread without drying it, so it’s crispy on the outside, yet soft and delicious on the inside!
What toaster doesn’t reach full temp in seconds?? Is that not an inherent feature of nichrome? Looking further it appears to be nichrome bonded to a substrate (likely mica/ceramic) to create a heating “plate” which likely does speed things up a bit but not dramatically so. Further variations on this style of heating can be found in bougie toasters (breville, commercial models) that are otherwise normal toasters (though breville loves to add motors and shit because god forbid your toast not look like Han Solo slowly being lowered into the carbonite chamber every morning)

But haven’t you heard!?! It’s a REVOLUTION!
I will simply turn 360 degrees and walk away.
