SharkNinja Launches Prepi, a Modular Food Chopping and Storage System

SharkNinja has released the Ninja Prepi, a food prep device the company markets as a 'meal prep system' rather than a food processor. The design uses a detachable motor pod that snaps onto a lid, which then sits atop interchangeable bowls of different sizes that double as storage containers, and includes a separate dicing kit accessory.

Copper updates Charlie induction range with more power, 240V support

Copper has released an updated version of its Charlie induction stove, boosting the broiler to 3,000 watts, increasing induction zone power to 3kW, and cutting oven preheat time to 3:50 for 350°F.

Breville's Eye Q 850 Toaster Uses Optic Sensors Instead of Timers to Judge Doneness

Breville has launched the Eye Q 850 Auto Toaster, a $300 device that uses a pulsing internal light sensor to track the bread's color as it toasts, rather than relying solely on a timer or fixed temperature settings. A CNET reviewer tested the toaster for a month and found the sensor-based approach generally delivers consistent results, though with some caveats worth noting. The sensor only operates in the left slot, and the machine features a motorized lift instead of a spring-loaded pop-up mechanism.
