The best toasters ordered by three professionals on the spot Sharp Healsio Toaster AX-WT1 Actual price: ¥33,000 Needless to say, the food grilled with this product during testing was unimaginably delicious. But what was even more extraordinary was that all of the professionals participating in the test started ordering more right then and there. Even for our editorial staff, who have been involved in testing all kinds of products for many years, this was the first time we’d ever seen anything like it. In other words, it’s because this product’s performance as a toaster oven is so high, and the food it toasts is so delicious. When we interviewed professionals about their impressions after purchasing it, they all said the same thing: “I’m so glad I bought it! I’ve never been more satisfied with a purchase!” Image

Features Gillette Labs exfoliating bar Actual price: ¥4,286 Since its release, Gillette Labs has dominated the market, becoming the “one-size-all” choice. This year’s redesign has further elevated its reputation. The head in particular performs exceptionally well, making it the best T-shaped razor in terms of “minimizing skin damage.” You’d be missing out if you didn’t try out this fantastic tool!

Comes with a guard to minimize oil splatter!! Iwatani Yakimaru Slim CB-SLG-3 Actual price: ¥9,240 Since the original Yakimaru became a best buy eight years ago, “Yakimaru is a must-have for home yakiniku!” has become a sort of motto for this magazine. Its greatest appeal is its ability to crisp up the surface at high temperatures while draining excess oil through the grooves in the plate for a refreshing taste. This hasn’t changed with the second and third generation “Yakimaru Slim,” and the Yakimaru series will remain true to its “absolute” nature.

After disassembling and testing it, I can confidently say, “MUJI beds are the best!” MUJI Pocket Coil Mattress with Legs (washable cover, assembly required) Actual price: ¥34,900 (including ¥2,000 for legs) It’s common knowledge at this magazine that Muji’s mattresses with legs are the best. Five years ago, we disassembled all the beds from major manufacturers and this one was ranked the best. Since then, we’ve been disassembling and checking them regularly, and every time I take this bed apart, the inside is always in good condition. Image

Technics EAH-AZ100 Market Price: ¥39,600 The previous model has also won Best Buy awards in the past, but this successor model stands out with its industry-first technology, the “magnetic fluid driver.” By filling the driver with a magnetic liquid, the diaphragm is precisely controlled to deliver clear sound. The edges of the diaphragm can also be made thinner, resulting in tighter bass definition and improved expressiveness. Resolution and sound image positioning have been improved, so much so that even the nuances of vocals are conveyed. It definitely surpasses previous standards of “high sound quality” and breaks the limits.
