What's the difference between this and the older model?

There doesn't appear to be any real difference. The model we ordered in July 2013 was exactly the same as the one pictured in the current catalog, only the price and seller were different.

How many newer models are there than this one. I am confused as to which is the newest?

The more expensive one is enhanced and the newest version . The 199.00 is the older model.

This is the first one I purchased, so I am not sure the difference. I would think it has added enhancements. Check out the Withings site for more details.

I'm not sure about the differences in older and newer but I'd guess it is not the newer version. We've had our old one for 6 or 7 years and I think and wouldn't trade it for anything. It does a great job toasting, baking, warming. I remember some people commenting on the light that comes from the unit while cooking. It's just the way it works, and it works very well. If you can get it at an affordable price you won't be disappointed.

I've had both. The newer model is more sturdy, heavier duty plastic parts, in general, a real improvement. Works the same, but I think it will last longer, I've had mine about a year now.

Well, thanks for trying. I hope they reply! I noticed they merged those two models with their description as well which makes it hard to figure out the differences. If you dont get a response I'll definitely try to call and find out.

Yes the new ones do, but the older ones don't. There is a model designation difference.

I have had mine quite some time and forgot the model numbers. The new one is better. Construction and usage.

Sorry, I do not know the difference. If you do a chat with a tech on Amazon or call them they will tell you. They are very helpful.

I think this is the newer model. My sister in law recommended it and this is the one she had shown me to purchase.

I would like to know the answer to this also. I know it's a product update but I would like to know exactly what is the difference.

I don't see a difference - the only thing I can see in the product description the os2018 is a newer version and weighs less. I love it - makes a huge difference.

they do not have any difference... both do not have a digital display ... only the oldest model has.

This is NOT the new and improved model. It is the older model that has been replaced. I was surprised not to get the newer item.

Brian, I have no idea if there is any difference, as I have only experience with the "other" model. I just really like the one I bought from Amazon.
