I doubt that it's all that more space efficient to combine kitchen gadgets, but it can certainly save you a few precious counter plugs. The ikon by Breville combines your toaster with a kettle, the perfect breakfast machine for when your visiting friends from overseas ask for something other than your trademark Egg McMuffin on a plate. At $130, it's the same price as Breville's LED-gauged standalone toaster. So before dropping any cash, decide if it's more important for you to have hot water or a kitchen that glows as unnaturally bright as your entertainment center. [product via Techfresh]

first one to wash out the unit - still plugged in - wins a prize.
Sorry, this is nowhere near as cool as the combination toaster / coffee maker / egg poacher I gave my Dad for Father's Day, and it was only $50.00 twenty years ago.
Please pass the jelly...
now if it could SPREAD the jelly on my toast...and put it on a plate i'm set for 2
@strider_mt2k: Passes the KY

Hey. If this is a backside view of the Aluratek Wi-Fi Alarm Clock, then I'd say they might have a winner of a morning wake-up product!
What? No eggs and bacon?
this wasn't designed for hangovers.
If this photo posts, it goes with my comment above.

Attaching a water boiling kettle to an electric toaster, hmm. Kevorkian design concept?
@flyboy: Honestly, aside from beds, what is?
@TOWken22: theres a cheaper way to get both words in one. Sit in a bath tub full of scolding water throw a few tea bags in and a 10 dollar toaster from Big Lots :)

@workingonyourinvoice: aspirin?
Andrews Liver Salts?
toilet bowls?
cubicles?
@workingonyourinvoice: Black out blinds.
we need a GIZ head to head on hangover gadghets.
Comment on Breville ikon Combines Tea and Toast (into Teast) You know, I think "Toast-tea" would have been a better play on words. But that's just me.
@Git Em SteveDave: Good one.
@flyboy: How is a cubicle made for a hangover??! I can't think of any place I'd want to be less.
@workingonyourinvoice:
yeh me too - the joke is that's the hangover is often carried out...

@carmen89: But this affords you the convenience of having all of that in one item. Otherwise you will have all that back and forth effort, gadgets are supposed to make life, er, death, easier.
@bosskev: HA, you're right.
@workingonyourinvoice @flyboy: Tell me about it, these florescent lights are killing me.
@TOWken22: However if i just restock my bathroom with the following every month once it's just the same as buying toast, buying tea, filing the kettle with water and waiting. The bathtub and the toaster being thrown in takes a mere few seconds :)
@shamoononon: Just realized that by using this LCD, I'm essentially staring into a florescent light all day long. No wonder my head always hurts...
/rubs eyes
What problem does this solve? Does anyone actually think "hmm, I would like tea with my toast."
@oopl: If you live in England, then yes.
@Kaiser-Machead: you pour the tea and out comes the tea.
Its moronic.
I meant Toast..
@flyboy: Freud mocks thee :P
@workingonyourinvoice: 1 or 2 liters of IV fluids (plain ringers is best, lactated is bit more work the liver doen't really need just at that moment!) with multi vitamins is the gold standard treatment for a hangover. Being a nurse does have it's advantages!
Should be called Teaost
