Launching a €400 toaster is Tineco’s surprising idea. The Toasty One aims to be the Rolls of toasting and is equipped with technologies not widely available on this type of device: touch screen, manual or automatic mode, etc.
After a few days of handling, it is difficult to fault the Tineco Toasty One. As a toaster, it fulfills its mission efficiently and we cannot fault it in terms of handling, power consumption or noise level. Finally, only the performance-price box is not checked, but if we can find hair dryers for €400, why shouldn’t there be a toaster at the same price?
Strong points
- Fun handling and use.
- Independent control of both slots.
- Browning precision.
Weak points
- Oddly integrated control panel.
- Some plastic parts.
- Top of toaster unprotected.
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude the prices of stores whose the VAT policy is not clear (so-called “gray” stores, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
The MixBrew coffee infuser is an ingenious accessory that allows you to extend the versatility of the Thermomix a little further. With it, the robot cooker transforms into an efficient filter coffee maker, although a little time-consuming to prepare, provided however that you adjust the manufacturer’s recommendations to consume a filter coffee made according to the rules of the art.
