A Father’s Day Gift: Magimix Vision Toaster Giveaway

· · 193 Comments

In honor of Father’s Day and dads everywhere, I’m giving away a Magimix by Robot Coupe Vision Toaster. It’s a great dad gift, with a sleek look that makes toasting a breeze.

Kitchen appliances may not seem like your standard Father’s Day gift, which marketing tells us should be patterned ties and grilling essentials. Still, when I was growing up my dad sometimes ventured into the kitchen for one thing and one thing only: toast and eggs.

My dad didn’t cook but for breakfast. When I was young and he would make dinner on the nights she worked, the only thing that ever appeared was a plate of toast and eggs. Perfectly cooked eggs at that. My dad knows how to cook them just so, and he does it effortlessly, cracking and salting, watching until they’re just right. Then he would plop those perfect eggs down on the plate and set them in front of his five hungry kids. “Barbie doll” eggs he called them, because they were “unrealistically perfect.” Yet there they were in front of me with a side of golden toast.

Finally, I have found a toaster that can toast the perfect piece of toast, an exquisite English muffin, a crafted crumpet that does my dad’s “barbie doll” eggs justice.

The new Magimix by Robot Coupe Vision Toaster does just that, with four quartz heating elements and settings for toast, bagels, reheat, and defrost, the viewing window allows you to see exactly how golden those crumbs are getting. It’s the luxury edition of all toasters that came before it. Plus, Dad will love it, whether he makes his own “barbie doll” eggs or not.

  11. Everything bagel, toasted and spread lavishly with real cream cheese and a sprinkle of garlic salt…YUM! I follow Food for my Family and Migimix on Facebook too. Thanks for this give-away!

  18. Bagels for my daughter…one of her favorite breakfasts…along with waffles and italian bread toast…all made in the toaster! Would love to win this one…our current toaster has a short in the electrical wire and is always on the fritz…

  21. I toast white bread and load it with grape jelly! This toaster would be great because I have a tendency to either burn it or not toast my bread enough.

  25. I love a toasted English muffin with a fried egg in the morning. Or a slice of toasted whole-grain bread slathered in almond butter . . .mmmm, so good!

  32. I am definitely a bagel girl with cream cheese, but my kids love toast with a little Nutella, and we desperately need a toaster. We don’t currently have one.

  37. We love my homemade whole wheat bread toasted as well as bagels and English muffins. I don’t own a toaster – just use my oven, so I would love this!!

  74. I like to toast english muffins with lots of butter (salted) and sometimes peanut butter, OR honey, OR Nugatti (something like Nutella that BigDaddy gets on his Scandinavian business trips).

  76. We tend to toast whole wheat bread every morning!!!

    we need a new toaster!!! thanks for the chance to win this fancy schmancy window version!!!!

  143. My youngest son’s first real word was “toast”, so yeah, we make a lot of toast. Whole wheat for everyone but the little guy who will eat anything toasted – rye, naan, bagels… shoes, cardboard.

  151. I usually make toast for my kiddos, my daughter likes cinnamon/sugar and my son likes strawberry jam. We do english muffins sometimes. A few times a year I get a hankering for toasted peanut butter and jelly! Yum.
