Breville’s Eye Q Uses an Optic Sensor for Flawless Toast. Here’s My Review
The Eye Q may be too pricey for most households, but it’ll dazzle toast lovers with a padded budget.
The Breville Eye Q 850 Auto Toaster employs an optic sensor to achieve consistently perfect toast results. This high-tech toaster, priced at $300, utilizes a pulsing internal sensor to monitor bread color throughout the toasting process before concluding doneness. Testing this innovative appliance over the course of a month, it was found to generally deliver satisfactory results.
The sleek matte black and brushed stainless steel design, coupled with a ceramic top, gives the toaster an upscale look. The Eye Q's standout feature is its optic sensor in the left-side slot, which is capable of monitoring doneness without relying solely on traditional time and temperature methods. The unit features five functional buttons, including a power cord storage slot, a removable crumb tray, and adjustable volume for the start/end chimes.
Despite the premium price tag, the Breville Eye Q Auto Toaster is considered a worthwhile investment for daily toasting needs, although it may not be suitable for budget-conscious consumers.
