I love the color, we are expecting to redo our kitchen counters with a dark/dramatic tile color and it will blend in and not visually dominate when we do.
My folks have one of those toaster ovens that does all kinds of stuff, but just toasting a piece of bread in theirs is too dang complicated. I'm so grateful for this thing that skipped all that baloney and just delivers on the basics beautifully.
I bought the Balmuda toaster partly out of curiousity and partly because I wanted to downsize from my giant Breville. This is smaller than your average American toaster oven, it roughly fits about two pieces of standard sandwich bread. It's not quite big enough to fit three halved english muffins which is a mild nuisance.
The quality of toast is good. The addition of steam does result in nicely browned bread that isn't at all dry on the inside. The difference is not massive, let's say if you're a picky foody you'll probably be able to tell the difference.
For fit and finish, I do have some complaints. The included nonstick pan is junk - it has the least-nonstick surface of any pan I've used in many years. Foods stick badly, and the coating is flakey and delicate. I will probably end up trying to find a replacement for this.
The little 5ml mug for dosing out the necessary water for cooking is cute and functional, but for a device with so much attention to detail it is surprising that it doesn't have a place to store it. I foresee my toddler losing this.
I wish I had more manual controls. I can't simply turn on the broiler, or turn on the elements to my choosing. Unlike most toaster ovens you can't adjust the height of the racks, this toaster is just about toast and that's about it.
There's some negativity in my review but overall I do like the toaster. Great toast, attractive package, mostly high quality finishes.
The steam feature is actually pretty cool - I think it makes a difference in making the bread a bit more gooey on the inside. Then it browns the outside perfectly, and wow.
I often toast either homemade or artisan sourdoughs, and I already know it’ll be better to have something that easily accommodates toast of any thickness.
The price is freakin high, but if you’re ok paying a premium to have the best toaster out there, then this is it.
The unit seems very well made. Im excited to show this to my family and friends!
Status update after one week: I’ve made toast roughly 10 times and am totally loving this thing. It’s so awesome. Really glad I splurged on a nice one.
Status after 6 months: This thing is freakin incredible. I just ate three pieces of toast and said to myself, yet again, that this thing is WAY better than any other normal toaster. My wife and I are really glad we got this over a normal slot toaster, and the whole steam thing is actually true - the toast is consistently moist and soft on the inside, with a toasty and crunchy layer on the outside. It's seriously the perfect toast. I love this thing and would highly recommend it to anyone with enough spare cash to afford it. Yes, it's expensive. But I'm very glad I got it.
Update after a year: I continue to absolutely love this thing. SO GLAD that I made the investment.

packaged really well. it was packed in a box within another box and then the amazon box. so much cardboard to recycle now. what I don’t like is the styrofoam to house the toaster in the box. but that’s just a personal preference. the cord is in the back and a little short but doesn’t bother me. I cleaned the rack, oven tray and the 5cc cup. placed the rack into the oven, then the toast and push the on button and set to 3.5mins for my toast. toast came out perfect (toasty crust outside and soft & moist inside). I want to test a stale bread since I heard it rejuvenate a dead toast back to life. next test!
during the toasting phase, I felt around the toaster to see how much heat it gives off. my old toaster was hot throughout so i had to be mindful of the placement of the toaster to not damage the wall, things near the toaster, etc. Balmuda only felt warm so that was another thumbs up point to me. be mindful of the capacity and the measurements. but I knew what I was getting so no complaint on my part. I never understand how someone would buy a product without knowing the measurement and then go write a bad review complaining about the measurements/capacity of a product. like dude, it is your fault...
I got the black color one. Love the simple sleek modern design and goes well with my place. the price is a little steep but if you’re a toast/bread/pastry lover, this will be a purchase you won’t regret. Recycling my old toaster now because it just got replaced!
