The race for energy efficient gadgets is really encouraging some smart innovation. The Morphy Richards Ecolectric Toaster for example is an intelligently designed electric toaster that uses 30% less energy compared to ordinary toasters. By using an automatically closing lid, the toaster retains considerably more heat, resulting in faster cooking times and less energy being needed.
The toaster also has a variable width toasting chamber to allow you to toast anything from thin toast slices to big fat bagels. A specially designed heating element ensures the toast is evenly browned. The energy saving toaster will automatically do all the work for you with its motorised bread carriage too! At £34.95, it’s not much more expensive compared to conventional toasters, so it will probably pay for itself in a year or two.
