In Australia toasters are a weird product category. I cannot see any correlation to price and features/quality. The colour and style seems to be the only thing that separately them. I think a toaster that is objectively better than other toasters would be cool, but I've but it would be hard to beat my 10 year old A$20 Kmart toaster. But I suspect it would be a very difficult market to break into.
- YPPH 3y agoAlso Australian - agreed. I got a toaster and kettle combo from a premium appliance manufacturer for Christmas. I've since seen the exact same kit in Aldi under their own brand. It's not just similar, it's the exact same product.
- farhanhubble 3y agoAlso in Australia and in my experience everything here lacks aesthetics, quality and technological innovation, and is still a ripoff. The Kmart stuff is at least value for money and sometimes is quality too and owning it makes the most sense.
