DISQUS

OhGizmo!: Glide Toaster

  • Jen · 2 years ago
    I love toast as much as the next person, but I see a HUGE issue..........
    What about the bagel? That skilly little slot is not big enough for my morning garlic bagel (much like the minds of today's societys skinny ideals of what women should look like). Let's not forget the all important Bagel.

    Exactly, although I don't know about garlic bagels (yuck)... but cinnamon raisin, now that's what I need it for!

    I have an idea:
    Why not separate the toasting part into two panels such that they may be moved closer or further apart

    And another:
    Like standard toasters and this one, you have a safety issue with people sticking their fingers in, only with an adjustable-width toaster, users have a reason to do so. To prevent this, you could use hard flaps on the toast insertion and extraction points. The insertion point would remain unsafe, but the extraction point would be very difficult to open casually. Additionally, the flaps would indicate "inside" the device where it is not safe, and "outside" where it is.

    A third idea:
    These flaps could automatically trip a switch to start toasting, leaving only one "light->dark" scalar that the user needs to control.

    Sincerely,
    Dan, murpsoft@hotmail.com

    What the hell is wrong with conventional modern toasters, anyway? If it's not broken, don't fix it. This thing looks more like a novelty item than anything. I've seen refrigerator magnets of toasters that probably work just as well as this overthought gadget.
