2008 AX-X1 Superheated Steam Oven

The AX-X1 Superheated Steam Oven features 112 healthy automatic settings and a large, easy-to-read color LCD. Among the automatic settings are 57 developed under the supervision of Professor Masahide Imaki of Osaka Prefecture University in which the reduction in calories from the fat-reducing benefits of the AX-X1 are quantified and shown on the color LCD. Further, the number of calories eliminated by cooking with the AX-X1 is shown in the time it would take to consume that same amount of calories if a person were to go walking^*, a familiar and easy way of exercise.
The AX-X1 is equipped with a new 3.5-inch color LCD, and for each of the 112 healthy automatic settings, indicators for health benefits such as "Reduced Salt," "Vitamin Retention," and "Low Calorie" are shown in addition to the "Calorie Reduction" display. Beautiful color photographs are also shown for 231 different automatic settings. While viewing the color LCD screen, users can select the dishes they want to cook based on health benefits, visual appearance, or taste and flavor.
