you know they say waiting for paint to
dry it never drives is that right the
general electric toaster oven that
toasts both sides at once evenly
perfectly and delivers the toast right
into your hand automatic all right we've
got we got a really fun a really fun
concept I feel like a you say type of
bakery you running over here Lou it is
not a bakery however those are baked
goods and they're here for good reason
that thing right I ordered this all
right once upon a time maybe the world's
most expensive most premium toaster it's
a whole different concept for how to
toast bread treat bread and then I said
you know the only way to really analyze
this thing what could be the world's
most expensive toaster is to put it up
against the standard inexpensive toaster
this is a proctor selects traditions I
just bought this at the Canadian Tire
for $13 up against this one which on
Amazon currently is three hundred and
seventy three dollars and in Canadian
dollars it's over five hundred bucks
it only toasts one slice at a time
because that's how special it is so it's
the t o - st one - tea from Mitsubishi
we're going to do a taste test myself
and Willie do we have some premium bread
from Cobbs bakery and we have some
supermarket bread from the locals so B's
that's Dempster's you see that as
Dempster's white official with the
canadian flag first off we're gonna try
to figure out if we can tell the
difference between the toasters tell the
difference between the breads and then
tell you if there's any mean at all for
you as a human being to consider the
idea of owning spending or placing a
$400 toaster on your countertop in 2020
and isn't it a beauty it looks like
Christmas doesn't it this is the
Mitsubishi Premium toaster and you know
it's premium right away because you
crack it open and check the rest
P booklet look at this is cinnamon
apples the key to this expensive
toasting tech is that everything is
sealed in the idea being that it keeps
the moisture inside whereas your typical
cheapo toaster is drying out the bread
because it's open on the top it comes
with this little tray
people are saying man you throw the
butter on before you put it in that's
something you could do people are saying
you throw french toast straight into
this guy so we have the little spatula
this looks like some warranty
information it's all very serious I feel
like I've purchased an expensive
appliance this is the toaster at the
nice wood grain on the top Jack's a big
fan of the wood grain right there I will
go at your decor quite a large item for
the counter for a toaster for one slice
okay we remove the protective covering
that's where the bread goes it goes on
to this tray the whole thing seals up
there's a tremendous number of settings
on the front regular toast defrost I
don't know and french toast that looks
like maybe for stale toast and then
there's different levels for how toasted
you want it four five six eight now they
claim to have taken some of their tech
from the rice cookers that they
obviously manufacture those as well and
those things are all about keeping the
moisture inside you know when you're
talking about food it often comes back
to the moisture the juiciness they say
that you cook a a succulent meal now you
may be wondering Lou where are the
toppings all you have here is the bread
and that's because we want the real
analysis we want to examine the bread
and only the bread the the crunch and
the softness we want to put our sensory
systems on high alert now let's compare
that to the budget unboxing experience
the traditions by procter selects it's
actually not that complicated this
device is nothing in the package it
really doesn't need to be very
lightweight it's a bit marked up over
here
[Music]
you would see this in a I don't know a
dormitory you would maybe you got a
really cheap air B&B this is what will
be in the house if you can get it get
the job done for 10 bucks more power to
you but it's not the most satisfying
interaction if you're constantly making
toast and of course there's not many
settings it's just that's it
first things first let's start with the
standard toaster just to refresh what a
simple piece of toast can be or is very
short cable on the cheap toaster first
it's going to be the supermarket bread
in the ten dollar toaster now the beauty
is we can do two slices at a time on
this one is that wait a second wait a
minute
the bread is too large for the actual
yeah the top of it it's not gonna get an
even post on there this is a type of
toaster you just need that bread heat it
up a bit man you just need something
other than the bread itself yeah you got
like five minutes and then you're out
the door yeah that's it you're gonna
take that toast you're gonna move on and
you're not gonna think about it too much
its sustenance you're just trying to
live level six this - I would eat this
toast this is not too toasted for me
really
okay yours is it yours is dead alright
we're gonna have to do that again I
guess see this is the issue as well with
your typical toaster consistent toast
and there's bagels it's different you
know it's hard man yeah okay are you
wanting crab yours okay so definitely
what we thought it's not it's not gonna
get the top portion very well are you
ready yeah here we go
[Music]
hmm it tastes like childhood it's not
bad but it's not special some would say
it's a bit dry we're gonna shift now to
the premium bread in the ten dollar
toaster now what's weird is that this
bread costs almost as much as a toaster
[Music]
you're talking about a premium bread
from cobs shout out to cobs bread I
suppose the other thing we're gonna get
to the bottom of with this experiment is
not just the difference from the premium
toaster to the cheap toaster but also
the premium bread to the cheap bread and
whether or not it's worthwhile to bother
upgrading your bread if you're not
prepared to upgrade your toaster or or
save your money on the toaster and just
buy better bread right that's strange
look at that it's a much less toasted
than the supermarket bread okay let's
give it a go
[Music]
it brushes way better it's crispier
mm-hmm the bread is a massive impact if
you just go with a slightly more premium
bread even on a $10 toaster
it's a huge upgrade now that brings us
of course to the elephant in the room
the Mitsubishi and first we're gonna hit
it with the supermarket white bread seal
chamber that's created in there it's
amazing okay you close it down
then we're gonna give it a start makes a
chime I like the red light and I like
the dedicated start/stop button this was
a bit nerve-wracking on the $10 item it
definitely can't make good bread bad I
mean good bread is good good good bread
is good bread yeah 20 20 oh yeah get it
checked whoa a little steam outlet on
the back where's all that moisture
coming from okay oh my god
[Music]
oh my god it's so even it's fluffy
there's a fluff to it that a typical
toaster can't achieve the air of the
bread is protected okay now obviously
the last thing to do is for us to take
the premium bread with the premium
toaster yes it's the $400 toaster and a
$4 bakery bread now we know what
happened on the cheapo toaster this was
a big improvement and we hope that the
same thing happens over here how is the
bread turning brown then there is a
heating element on the one side but
how's the top of the bread brown where's
that water coming from probably the
bread the bread it uses the breads own
water
[Music]
science that is incredible amount of
steam
[Music]
unreal so good this toaster enhanced the
difference between the premium bread and
the cheap bread it increased the gap in
quality when we put the cheap bread in
the nice toaster it was like okay it's a
bit fluffier we put the premium bread in
there is what it was meant to be if you
get this toaster you can't be putting
regular bread in it you've got to be
getting the bakery it's got to be baked
that day that's I would say that yeah
yeah it's real I'm into it what is that
difference worth it's a difference worth
four hundred dollars and for who I want
to know who can justify it let's say
even over the course of the year it's
less than a dollar a day that premium
post experience yes then you leave your
house your urine up in an uplifted mood
a real value move it's just upgrade your
bread this is only for the true
aficionados it's only for the true
enthusiasts you go with the premium
bread and the premium toaster and you
feel like you're bit you feel like
you're baking your own bread in there so
for the average person that wants to
improve their toast experience they
should look at better bread if you're a
weirdo or bread enthusiast or someone
like us that wants to have a strange
toast experience I guarantee you you
will have that you will have the optimal
extreme the ultimate toast experience
with that right there the Mitsubishi
Electric $400 toaster one slice at a
time because that's how special each
piece of toast is to you
you
