Advantages: Makes a quick and delicious breakfast treat
Disadvantages: No healthy recipes included

I received this Mickey waffle maker as a Christmas present and I have to say that I have found it a great addition to my kitchen. From an English perspective I would say that the waffles that it makes are more like Scotch pancakes than a traditional waffle - I used the basic recipe which is included with the product. The waffle maker is so easy to use, as a weekend treat I would never again bother to get the frying pan to make pancakes with the added ...
...device all you have to do is plug it and wait for a few minutes for it to heat up and you are ready to go. Each mould of the four takes a small ladle full of batter and you then simply close the lid and wait for about 5 minutes. The outcome is four pancakes that are just the right size for a snack. I find that the basic batter makes about 20 pancakes which more than satisfies 2 adults for breakfast or brunch. The other good thing is how easy it is ... Read review

Advantages: Easyclean, Non Stick, Easy to use
Disadvantages: Non

Breville is an excellent make and when it comes to toasty makers is the only one to buy. They make a quick, easy and tasty snack.

I have no problems cleaning this at all. its very easy. You simply remove the plates after they have cooled by unclipping and washing them and clipping back in place. ...

I bought it on sale so paid £20. ... Read review

Advantages: Speed of Cooking, Ease of Use, Removable Plates
Disadvantages: Top Plastic Cover is flimsy

Exceptionally easy to use and a staple for my kitchen. The next grilleration foreman grill is easy to use as it has variable temperature settings and a built in timer, meaning all you have to do is switch it on and chuck some meat on it. Size-wise it fits about 4 chicken breasts which is a decent size, but for the price i would have liked something which could handle more food. The reason i bought one was for the removable plates, which are the best ...
...stick the plates in the microwave means that this model had great longevity compared to the lesser models which will accumulate grease etc easily. I do have a complaint with the top section though, the plastic cover over the top was extremely flimsy and broke within a few weeks, although this doesnt really affect the grill that much since the primary use is just to cook meat. The grill also comes with a handy recipe book and a couple of fat-drip ... Read review

Advantages: Not just a toasted sandwich maker
Disadvantages: Can take a little while to cool down

...decided to go for the Breville TR39 Sandwich press. ~ The Difference between a sandwich press and toaster ~ Well basically it all comes down to the hinges. A sandwich toaster has fixed hinges and allows you to use regular bread, which it then turns into a toasted sandwich using either one or two compartments. It also means your not as restricted in the slice of bread in overall size (often our old machine wouldn't take more than a small loaf slice). ...
...hinges that allow for thicker bread like ciabata, panini and focaccia. Great if like us you enjoy a variation on the toasted sandwich dream. ~ The Toasted Sandwich ~ The first noticeable difference between this and the toasted sandwich maker is there are no compartments that the bread fits into. This also means you don't get the edges sealed in the same way, nor do you have the sandwich "sealed" in half. I admit I was a little concerned that the ... Read review

I love this machine! I've had it a few years now and don't kow what I did before without it!

It's easy to use and has a smoth wipe-clean surface, it also doesn't get too hot on the outside when it's on and cooking. You can ... Read review
