I eat toast every day so I tried to order this from Amazon Japan. After a few weeks it still hadn't shipped so I ordered a Cuisinart Steam/Convection Toaster oven instead for about half the price! It is bigger, has more functions, and after some experimenting makes amazing toast (just like this one where it is crisp on the outside and fluffy in the middle). It also has a large water tank for the steam modes and so there is no messing around with tiny cups or adding water every time I use it!
Good old bakers technic: place a tray with water under the tray of bread or croisant you are toasting, water will evaporate hydrating the product while the heating coils are going to crisp the edges (might wanna flip in between if oven fan is unavailable), also might save you the 329dollar price
this was all I was thinking throughout the video. I mean, sure the practicality of this oven sounds awesome, but it is not that rare the water trick in the oven. or even just brush some water directly on the bread you're reheating (less effective but better than nothing)
Bells But the need for the oven to preheat is the thing that’s throwing me off. Cuz this toaster oven can have ur breakfast finished in 4 minutes. A conventional oven is going to take much longer.
@@crystalwang1532 but Inga said that that toaster oven also needs some preheating. sure it would be quicker, no doubt, but the main benefit mentioned in this video is not how much quicker it is, is the steam function. also, it's the price tag that is a bit ridiculous - I can start the day by turning on the grill of my oven, putting some water in the kettle for my coffee - while the coffee steeps, the boiling water goes with the bread in the oven 🤷🏻♀️ it's not too difficult. anyway, like I said, it's not exactly the point of our comment or the video. either way, in my opinion, there is nothing that justifies paying this price tag, and I did not see anything in the video I couldn't do in my regular oven. I love Inga and I watched it just for her, but this oven is ridiculous.
I was thinking the same. I have a small counter top oven like this one just not $329 and no steam or seal its just a glass door but maybe putting water in the ramekin and placing it on the bottom would be good.
Inga: "I ate a bit of the croissant and then saved it for the next day." Me: "What insane self control, I buy a croissant and it's gone in 30 seconds."
I usually just spray my sourdough bread with some water and toast it. Does the same thing as this as the fraction of the cost. Obviously there is some missed settings but now I can afford the rest of my meals for the month lol.
Its like when I reheat a whole loaf of bread, I spray it with a bit of water all over before putting it in an ordinary oven to reheat/toast. The water freshens it up and adds moisture at the same time, preventing the bread from drying out. No need to buy a pricey small kitchen gadget. But then to each his own.. 😊
For whole loaves of bread I literally run it under water for a second, seems crazy but I throw it in the oven or mini oven/toaster at normal baking settings and it comes out crisp and the interior soft like fresh bread haha
My parents have had a toaster oven since before I was born. I grew up with it and now at 21, everyone who has ever come to my house in all these years, considered about getting one Living with my parents, we can toast bread for all of us at the same time, it is so much easier to clean, and it subs as a mini oven for when you’re reheat something bigger just for one. Totally worth it 💛
"it's expensive because normal toasters dry bread out, which is why this has an inbuilt steam function to prevent that!" me, who has been spraying water on bread since birth: ._.
I didn’t know this was a thing but I kind of accomplish something similar to either keep the inside of my toast fluffy or to revive stale bread. I just run my hand under the faucet and flick my fingers to get droplets of water on the inside portion of the bread. If I’m reviving stale bread, I repeat that once or twice and focus on both the crust and the inside. This works in both toaster ovens and regular ovens, and I’m sure the same would work in a pan! Maybe try just throwing the water in the pan instead then? Idk I just started doing this after discovering the sear then steam method for dumplings!
Omg this makes me want fresh toast so badly. I spend 8 hours this morning shaping two sourdough loaves…but have to wait until tomorrow to bake them. It’s killing me.
I just keep a spray bottle in my kitchen and spritz my bread when I throw it in my 20$ toaster and get this exact same effect. It works for pizza and all kinds of other things too, like reheating rice and stuff in the microwave. I'll keep my super versatile spritzer. This toaster is way too small and expensive for what it can do. If a spritz bottle didn't exist or work just as well, I'd consider this toaster if it was half the price and double the size.
I love my Balmuda toaster!! TIP FOR ANYONE WATCHING: After your toaster dings, let the bread sit for at least a minute for the PERFECT toast. Especially if you feel like your toasts aren’t “toasted enough”. Let them sit!!!
That's just crazy, wow. Fantastic - i love how you dont try 3 things and say "this is the best" but you actually have used it in all possible ways basically.
with the fish: japanese kitchens usually come equipped with a fish grill that works similarly to this toaster oven! its small, you add some water in the bottom to create steam, and cooks fish beautifully :)
I like this, but it's also a little bit lol+eyeroll because other than the steam thing and the hip aesthetic, the features in this seem pretty lacking compared to high-end but cheaper toaster ovens.
Similarly, I took the plunge and bought a Breville Smart Oven Air at the beginning of “all this craziness” and man.... I have gone WILD with it. It was also like $300+ and worth every gosh darned penny, but almost no one who doesn’t already have one will actually believe that. Glad you found your oven love, much like I have.
I feel like the Airfryer/Toaster Oven combo has more options and is a lot less money. The steam feature is the only difference but I feel like you can put water in the toaster oven with the bread to have the same effect.
If you know what you're doing probably yea. But, I can see it being a bit tricky to get right without a lot of testing. (For all of these uses, at least. But yea, agreed generally.)
@@Cyrribrae Yea steaming manually would definitely be a bit of a trial and error thing. However the ability for it to be an Air Fryer / Oven / Convection Oven / Toaster / Broiler and more while being able to set time and temperature exactly and change the distance of the tray to the burner just seems like you have much more granular control. It is weird to me that you would pay so much and only be able to set a few different temperatures. I guess they wanted to make things as simple as possible?
I own both a Balmuda The Toaster as well as the Breville Air Fryer Pro ($399). While the "steam" technology on the Balmuda is real, for the price tag at $329, I would GLADLY give up that "steam" feature for the all in one perfection of my Breville Air Fryer Pro (which also has dehydration as well). I don't work for either companies I just love kitchen gadgets. Balmuda makes a solid product but it is definitely marked up in price for aesthetics (think Fellow and their coffee kettle/storage products (they are great products but are again marked up incredibly for their aesthetics)). I highly recommend any of you folks in the market for a counter top AIO (all-in-one) toaster oven, check out Breville's line of smart toaster ovens before pulling the trigger on the Balmuda.
@@PersonWithStupid37 i think they have taken a break from their relationship and had moved back to canada but its mostly due to mental health and physical health. Martina is the only one right now filming on their channel so I'm hoping simon is okay and doing well
Me: Already knows about the toaster because I watched Simon and Martina's video about it Me: Welp time to watch a video about it again because it's Inka
Is there a way to adjust the tray height such that the distance from the heat source (from top and bottom) is equal? I think that may solve a lot of the issues with the uneven crisp (without having to flip midway)..
Inga, get you the Cadillac toaster you deserve! First good quality appliance I got myself when I could afford it was super vacuum and it was just such a quality of life improvement.
You just have given me the idea to experiment with a little water in my air-fryer which I got on a really good sale. I already toasted with it but maybe adding a little water will change things.
Thanks for trying this toaster out and letting us know your thoughts on it. I wish I could splurge on the toaster, but goodness I don't have any room in my kitchen for more stuff. Maybe someday I'll get it (and maybe they'll come out in a bigger model as well)
Using a conventional or toaster oven, you can just spray some water into the oven midway into cooking to get a similar effect. Bakers use that trick to get their bread to spring up and rise in the oven. When you want revitalize leftover bread like baguettes, slightly wet the outer crust before reheating in the oven.
Honestly, I hope they contacted you about a retroactive sponsorship and paid you for this incredible ad you made for them! I mean that sincerely. This oven sounds awesome and you did a great job explaining all of its different functions.
My mum’s hack was to sprinkle a few drops of water onto the tray before starting to toast any bread/buns/pizza/croissants/bagels... we’d achieve roughly the same effect (crisp outside, moist inside, though maybe not as ‘gourmet perfection’ as described) on our $40 toaster oven and have been doing this since we were kids! I’d even roast broccoli or salmon in the toaster oven for WFH meals for one...
I hate that it’s so expensive but it’s really cool that this can help stop food waste, not throwing away bread or pastries because they’re stale is a thing of the past!
Fun tip you can freeze your bread and toast them frozen to achieve the same effect,this stops bread from getting mold (prevent food waste)gives it a crispy on the outside crunchy on the inside texture just like this very expensive oven 😊
Really fancy ovens and professional ovens have a steaming option too for this exact reason. If you don't have 300$ lying around, here's how you can replicate it: wet your old baked goods slightly, for example with a spraying bottle or if it's really dry by swiping it under running water and let it absorb the moisture for a second. Then put it into your toaster, toaster oven or conventional oven. If you have an air fryer, it too can help revive stuff like baked goods and chicken nuggets. Put a splash of water in the bowl, put your food in the basket and turn the air fryer on. Now there's some experimentation needed to figure out how much water to use, how long to toast/fry etc. But you'll develop a feeling for it after a few times.
@@characterblub ig it depends from country to country, cause some countries still have quarantine going on, while some don't. So yeah maybe where the person lives there is quarantine.
The dedication, to by an appliance for over 300 dollars and using it for a month for a video, I absolutely love and appreciate it very much, keep up the good work everyone ❤❤❤
my sister bakes fresh cookies in them, we usually make the dough then scoop and freeze them, then whenever someone wants to eat one they just bake it in this oven, its amazing
If you heat up an entire proper oven every time you want to toast some bread, you'll spend more money in electricity alone than if you just bought a small expensive thing like this.
You can get similar results in a larger toaster oven by putting in a small container (heat-safe of course) with water into the toaster oven with your food when you reheat it. It's free (if you've already got a toaster oven) and simple.
Wow! Inga put this toaster to much better use than I have in the past 5 years with the same toaster.... Thanks! I’ll try some of what you have done in the video!
There is a countertop oven that has a steam function that might emulate this, but I have only seen it in Asia, HK, Thailand, etc, there is a similar one in Canada, but the Canadian one has less function, the one in HK has all the settings in English. but it is 1500 USD... that countertop oven is a regular oven replacement.
Surely 90% of the effect here is just having a high-quality, powerful element that can heat up fast, and nothing to do with steam? Getting a crisp, toasty outside and fluffy inside is about having extremely high heat very quickly. The steam would only really be useful for heating through thicker products like pastries and thick cut bread or for defrosting.
i do this steaming method for reheating pizza in my microwave all the time! you just have to put a small glass of water inside the microwave beside the pizza slice, and heat for a minute and a half. works wonders if you can’t afford this toaster.
I get a bit leery whenever toaster ovens have a bunch of settings without temperatures (e.g. the pizza, toast etc modes). Why not just have steam and temperature dials...? As someone else said, it’d be interesting to compare price points with a 40$ Walmart/general store toaster oven, and the like super expensive $700 Anova precision oven
My parents have a Balmuda toaster at home. Seeing you went crazy with experiment really inspired me to use it with chicken nuggets (and more). THANK YOU
Would love to see a follow-up video on this, with specific tips for how to use it for things other than toast! I've tried reheating my nuggets, and did NOT get the results that Inga did... 🤣 Would also love to hear the settings/time for cooking fish and veg--I need help unlocking the potential of this toaster!
I prefer to use my oven's broiler to make toast, or for bagels, for reheating pizza, and a lot of other stuff. One great thing about it if you're making a sandwich you can very easily toast a single side of the bread.

Put a splash of water in the bowl, put your food in the basket and turn the air fryer on. Now there's some experimentation needed to figure out how much water to use, how long to toast/fry etc. But you'll develop a feeling for it after a few times.
ATE is the reason I am able to survive this quarantine thing . Anyone else ??
We're still in quarantine??? I don't go out anyway but woah
@@characterblub ig it depends from country to country, cause some countries still have quarantine going on, while some don't. So yeah maybe where the person lives there is quarantine.
@@characterblub In our country there is still quarantine because of the sudden increase in cases since March
The dedication, to by an appliance for over 300 dollars and using it for a month for a video, I absolutely love and appreciate it very much, keep up the good work everyone ❤❤❤
That's BF willing to foot the bill.
This channel has the best food visuals
I am amazed at a 20-minute video on a toaster. LOVE IT!!!
Inga is like me when I first got my air fryer lmao. gotta test EVERYTHING!
my sister bakes fresh cookies in them, we usually make the dough then scoop and freeze them, then whenever someone wants to eat one they just bake it in this oven, its amazing
Did I really just watch a girl talk about a toaster for 20 minutes? Yes
Am I really considering buying it? Also yes
Thank you for trying different foods. You’re the only review that I could find besides steaming bread
"i toasted an oild baugette and a chocolate croissant on sandwich mode instead of pastry mode..."
"i dont know what I was thinking!"
Is really waiting for saturdays these days for A.T.E!!!💜 Thank you for these amazing contents!!
Put a safe oven bowl filled with water while making your toast inside your cheap oven, and you will get the same results.
mine actually steams up without me doing anything. great for reheating bagels
If you heat up an entire proper oven every time you want to toast some bread, you'll spend more money in electricity alone than if you just bought a small expensive thing like this.
@@nicfab1 i meant my toaster oven. which cost $35 and came with a grill tray and pizza pan
You can get similar results in a larger toaster oven by putting in a small container (heat-safe of course) with water into the toaster oven with your food when you reheat it. It's free (if you've already got a toaster oven) and simple.
Seriously, how can Inga eat that much bread and stay so thin and cute? 10000% jealous!
well it's her job to make stuff. she probably doesn't finish or even eat all of it.
Wow! Inga put this toaster to much better use than I have in the past 5 years with the same toaster.... Thanks! I’ll try some of what you have done in the video!
Why do you want to get rich?
Me: There's a special toaster that waits for me.
This channel has very quickly become my favourite food channel
"Eating insane amount of bread toasted the $329 Toaster i just married"
There is a countertop oven that has a steam function that might emulate this, but I have only seen it in Asia, HK, Thailand, etc, there is a similar one in Canada, but the Canadian one has less function, the one in HK has all the settings in English. but it is 1500 USD... that countertop oven is a regular oven replacement.
Inga, how much is the electric bill for that month 😂
Im definitely picking this little guy up! I have a larger steam oven and its amazing for bread and fish, but I would love something smaller like this
Surely 90% of the effect here is just having a high-quality, powerful element that can heat up fast, and nothing to do with steam? Getting a crisp, toasty outside and fluffy inside is about having extremely high heat very quickly. The steam would only really be useful for heating through thicker products like pastries and thick cut bread or for defrosting.
i do this steaming method for reheating pizza in my microwave all the time! you just have to put a small glass of water inside the microwave beside the pizza slice, and heat for a minute and a half. works wonders if you can’t afford this toaster.
I get a bit leery whenever toaster ovens have a bunch of settings without temperatures (e.g. the pizza, toast etc modes). Why not just have steam and temperature dials...?
As someone else said, it’d be interesting to compare price points with a 40$ Walmart/general store toaster oven, and the like super expensive $700 Anova precision oven
Normal person buys a toaster and makes some bread.
Inga buys a toaster and makes an incredible gourmet sandwich in it. LOL
"$329 Toaster"
*so my laptop?*
your pure love of bread is the most joyful thing i've seen in a long time =D
Now you can recreate the celebrity recipes for grilled cheese video without being criticized! Will you for real, Inga?
Eating vicariously through this. Amazing range of foods.
The real question is, how does it handle a poptart?
My parents have a Balmuda toaster at home. Seeing you went crazy with experiment really inspired me to use it with chicken nuggets (and more). THANK YOU
Me seeing Inga use a $300 toaster:
Also me, who doesn’t have a toaster:👁👄👁
watching your videos are just super relaxing...like visual asmr
I thought this was gonna be the toaster that was touch screen THATS really expensive THATS like $400 well now it’s on sale now for 299.95
Would love to see a follow-up video on this, with specific tips for how to use it for things other than toast! I've tried reheating my nuggets, and did NOT get the results that Inga did... 🤣 Would also love to hear the settings/time for cooking fish and veg--I need help unlocking the potential of this toaster!
I agree with you and there are not that many videos out there for examples with our toaster. I love this toaster, do you?
When inga's vedio pop up in the phone I am immediately happy
I prefer to use my oven's broiler to make toast, or for bagels, for reheating pizza, and a lot of other stuff. One great thing about it if you're making a sandwich you can very easily toast a single side of the bread.
At 0.48 got scared cause it looks like glowing demon eyes are looking at the toaster 😂😂
We now know how seriously in love Inga is with pastry. I think she had more pastry than there were 30 days
Should I watch the review on toaster or should I just watch Inga? 😍
Inga
😁
i've dreamt about this toaster for nearly 3 years now, can't wait to get my hands on one
