Excellent easy to use and clean. Made a great toastie in 4.5 mins n no mess. Worth money if you are on your own or want to make one at work

Saw this come on offer, and although I'd read the comments, I wasn't holding my breath about this being very good. however, I'm pleased to say this is actually quite good, it's not quite the same as your normal sandwich maker because you don't get the crimp, but it does give the toastie taste. The biggest advantage is that cleanup is much easier. Takes about 2minutes, flip over than another 2minute-ish.

How has it taken so long to invent this? Amazing item to have in the kitchen drawer. Yes it is that compact that in can easily fit in a drawer or handbag even to take to work. It all comes apart completely and is a doddle to wash. It is dishwasher safe but in all honestly it just is easy to wash and wipe clean at the sink. Depending on your microwave settings, you will have your toastie ready to eat within about 3 -3 and a half minutes. I have used normal thickness and toaster type bread and both have been fine. Cheese melts as expected. The only issue is full sized sliced bread is too big unless you cut the crusts off. The small half loaf slices are slightly too small to cover the plates. However, I was lucky to get this discounted in the used/returned section. It looked 100% new and so definitely good value. If you like French toast, just pop a slice buttered both sides in and it is nice and crunchy.

I bought this to use at work where break time is limited , so easy to use follow the directions ( butter bread outside - inside personal preference) and for best results use the same size bread 2 mins 30 seconds then turn the whole unit over and cook again for another 1 min 30 seconds perfect crunchy toastie and pop into sink to soak while eating so easy to take the plates out from the protective jacket to clean overall excellent quality appearance well made and easy to use and clean

Love this - just the right size for gluten free bread - which is always smaller than normal bread! Great for taking on holiday and means my bread can be separated and cooked without contamination - works well in microwave and cooks bread to a nice crisp toasted sandwich

I really love this little toastie maker and was honestly surprised by how well it works. As long as you follow the instructions, it delivers great results — the sandwiches come out properly toasted and evenly cooked every time. It’s super easy to use, with a straightforward design that doesn’t overcomplicate things. One of the best features is how it comes apart for cleaning — everything separates nicely, which makes it quick and easy to clean after use. It’s also not too bulky at all. It doesn’t take up much space and fits neatly in the cupboard when not in use, which is a big plus for smaller kitchens. Overall, it’s simple, effective, and does exactly what it promises. A great little appliance that I’m very happy with.

Like others, I have seen this gadget all over TikTok, then the price drop on Prime day finally tempted me to give it a go. The promise of a quick, easy toastie with minimal effort was very appealing and I honestly couldn't wait to try it. It fits bread that is fairly square in shape, so my Co-op toastie loaf was perfect. You lightly butter the outside, then add your filling to within 10mm of the edge to avoid seepage. The lid clips into place and then you pop it in the microwave for a duration to suit your liking. Times are given for light, medium and high browning (3, 4 and 5 minutes in a 900W oven respectively) with a flip-over around the half-way mark. For my first try I opted for the medium browning, and I have to say upon taking it out of the microwave it looked pretty perfect. But it was downhill from there... The filling at this point is scalding hot. I mean literally first-degree burn hot. So you need to let it cool for a good few minutes before you bite into it. But my first bite of the corner did not go well. It was so tough I found it to be inedible, and couldn't even chew it. The second bite of the edge only faired marginally better, being chewy rather than crispy. Crust aside, the rest of the toastie was actually quite palatable, although a little soggy in the centre. Undeterred, I tried again on the light setting. This time, I tried cheese and beans, but you can only fit about 2 teaspoons of beans before it's over-filled, and it still seeped out a tiny bit. The light setting was hopeless. The crust was still chewy but the rest of the bread was very soggy indeed, and it still takes a long time to cool down before you can bite into it without burning yourself. The instructions say you can't use this in a combination microwave oven, which was annoying because that's what I have and there was no mention of that in the listing. But I think that only means on the combination setting because I tried it on the microwave only function and it worked just fine. Overall, this isn't a game-changing gadget. The commission-earning influencers have clearly talked-up a fairly mediocre invention into sounding a lot better than it really is, when two slices of bread in a normal toaster is far better in my opinion.

Just used it for the first time. I am very impressed. It’s quite heavy and very well-made. Shame it’s orange! Took it apart, very easy, washed in warm soapy water before using as advised. Extremely easy to clean. Read all the instructions of which there are very few. If your sliced bread is large size, just cut it to fit. I don’t agree with the timings. After stopping and starting to check how the bread was browning, it worked out that each side takes three minutes. However, I would suggest turning it every 90 seconds to check and just to make sure it doesn’t burn.
