Revolution R180 Connect Plus Smart Toaster with Touchscreen – Choose from 40+ Bread Types, 7 Browning Levels, & Toastie Press Mode – Digital Picture Frame, Weather Widget, and Clock

Yes this is an expensive toaster, but making perfect toast or bagels in the morning is important to me. Compared to other top of the line and similarly priced toasters (like Dualit, Wolf, Smeg, etc), the R180 Connect Plus has some great unique features, including the photo frame where I can see my family and dog photos, current weather which I like to see before I leave the house in the morning, and the ability to receive over the air software updates when new features become available. Best of all, it has great toasting performance due to the preprogrammed bread types. I never burn anything, and I don’t have to pop the toast up to check if it is over toasted or not toasted enough. Everything pretty much comes out exactly as I set it for. And I also should add that it makes great panini sandwiches with the toastie press. Sure I can make toast with a $30 unit, but this is a luxury product with features that are worthwhile to me. I also used to think this was too much to pay for a toaster until I started using one that our office purchased. I was hooked!

If anyone would have told me I would pay $400 for a toaster I would have called them crazy . But here we are. It’s nice to see the weather each morning and pictures of my dog ! Oh and it makes good toast .. so yeah it’s a cool splurge .

Let me start with I sent this particular toaster back. There was nothing wrong with it but I realized I didn’t order the one with the toastie press. Upon research, it was more economical to return the one I purchased and get the one with the press. Toastie press separately is $80. Only $30 more getting it with upgrade through Amazon. I did plug it in to see how it looked. Very easy to connect to WiFi. Had many levels for bread toasting. I did not want to try it since I knew I was sending it back. Return was extremely easy and Amazon was quick with refund. I have ordered the new one and will post my review once I receive it Updated review: Got the new toaster in today. First off, even though the $399 toaster says it allows pictures to be uploaded, it doesn’t. This smart toaster is worth the extra $30.! Not only can you add your favorite photos as a screen saver, you get the toastie press ($80 separate) and the warming rack ($30 separate). You also get a 2 year warranty from the manufacturer. You don’t have to connect to WiFi but the benefits are really nice…weather for your area, updates, personal screen saver. I love all the different options for toasting different breads, pastries etc. It lowers your bread, lets you choose the darkness, shows you how long is left and once done, lets you know. This toaster Is amazing and definitely worth the money!

The absolute best toaster I have ever owned. A bit pricey, but well worth the cost. Love the output and controls screen. I also bought the pannini press attachment separately and just love it. Makes the best grilled sandwiches.

I received an item that was clearly returned previously, and obviously not inspected properly and as soon as it came out of the box, you could see it had been used, and the touchscreen is frozen and would not operate at all. I returned the item and was charged a return fee of almost $100. Absolutely unacceptable For this piece of junk. I would give it zero stars if that was an option.

$400 for a toaster seems a bit silly but I do love this thing. I uploaded some basic art to the gallery feature, connected it to my Wi-Fi to show my local weather, and the clock syncs with my local time (no more needing to update another clock manually). Some common questions I had when looking at this. This version does have a gluten-free mode and has a ton of bread types. Not all bread types are supported in the Gluten Free mode but there are still more options than the nonsmart "270" which had fewer bread types according to the reading on it. There is no app for this device when you want to upload the images you scan a QR code and do it from your mobile device. Outside of that, the performance for my bread has been quite good for toasting I run it at around a 4 for my thin cuts that's my personal taste.

Huge shoutout to the Consumer Care Team for making things right. Thank you RevCook! I love my R180 Connect Plus Revolution Toaster so much! It really adds a nice touch to my kitchen as it slideshows all the wonderful and fun moments that I’ve captured on camera, it’s nice to see some of those photos being displayed on the toaster’s screen while I’m in the kitchen. The toaster does an exceptional job getting the right toast on my bread and it’s very quick to do so too! Always looking forward to toasting some bread on it! I don’t regret buying this toaster. Highly recommend it.

It’s more fun than anything else. I’m not sure if the price warrants it, BUT, if you have money burning a whole in your pocket it’s lots of fun, for a toaster. It’s above average for its toasting ability, but not too much. I do love putting your own picture on the face. Of course it had to be my dog. :)
