Microsoft once released an Xbox Mini Fridge after memes started to surface online about its shape. While this was an odd occurrence, the gaming community loved it so much that now it turns out just one Xbox home appliance was not enough. Fans will be getting a new Xbox. But again, this is not for gaming.
Reports about an Xbox Series S made to overheat on purpose started surfacing. However, this is not an issue with the device. This is because this is no ordinary Xbox Series S. It is the Xbox Series S toaster.

One innovative inventor decided to make an Xbox Series S toaster to take things one step further. The first time news about the toaster surfaced was back in March 2023. And now, listings for it can be found for $39.99 at Walmart too. To make things more interesting, the listing of the product is made under the official Xbox tag on the website.

The toaster looks like the Series S. However, instead of playing games, it can make some serious gamer fuel. It comes with the signature black air vent that the console is known for. The device can house two slices of bread, bagels, waffles, and more.
The Xbox Series S toaster comes equipped with practical toasting features. These include six levels of browning, a removable crumb tray for easy cleaning, an LED countdown for precision, and a defrost button for added convenience. But the standout feature is its ability to imprint the Xbox logo onto the bread during toasting.
However, this is not the first time we are getting to see a gaming-themed toaster. So far, Razer has already joked with the idea of such a toaster and the Destiny-themed toaster released by Bungie imprints Destiny’s Tricorn logo onto the bread.

The Xbox Mini Fridge
In a delightful Twitter competition victory, Microsoft was set to launch preorders for the long-awaited Xbox Series X mini fridge on October 19, 2021. This unique product was promised by Microsoft after its Xbox emerged victorious in the #BestOfTweets Brand Bracket Competition, defeating none other than Skittles in the final round. The initial announcement on April 1 was met with skepticism, but the upcoming availability of preorders for the compact refrigerator, priced at $99.99, solidifies Microsoft’s commitment to make the unusual product.
