Breakfast Sandwich Maker with Timer

I have wanted one of these for over a year, however I am Diabetic and I try to avoid eating unnecessary carbs. The idea of breakfast being made while I take care of other things and people in the morning was spectacular, but I thought everything needed a bun, or waffle, or something to hold the sandwich together. So I decided not to get one. My wife knew I wanted one and bought it for me for my birthday and I am glad she did. So for starters, It does make a great, thoroughly cooked breakfast sandwich. Eggs are cooked to an "over medium" consistency at the standard 5 minute timer as a sandwich. I have tried this with English Muffins, Frozen Pancakes (Walmart has a frozen bag of them from De wafelbakkers that are the perfect size), Waffles, Grands Biscuit dough, and Pillsbury croissants. The Raw dough items I did semi pre cook them in the unit without egg or meat. All of the above worked great but, again, Carbs... Seeing how I typically eat 2 over medium eggs in the morning on my griddle I figured, well this thing makes one great egg, what if I used the lower portion for another egg. So, I put an egg in the bottom, and one in the top, seasoned them, added cheese and set the timer for 4 minutes. Went off, took care of the kids and such, came back when it summoned me and viola! 2 perfectly cooked, round eggs. I had to lift the bottom ring, Remove the lower egg, then close the unit, slide the upper tray bottom out (so the egg will fall to the bottom) and then lift the bottom ring and remove the 2nd egg. The fact I can turn this on, Let it heat up (takes like 3 minutes), crack 2 eggs in it, toss some cheese, set the timer and walk away is really a fantastic thing for my mornings. Being able to make eggs how I want and need them to be without getting the griddle going or babysitting them is great. My Only tip is this: Nonstick coatings on this are Fantastic. They are dishwasher safe BUT the manual says to hand wash for best results. My experience with non stick is that dishwashers really reduce the usable life of the coating. These rings take seconds to rinse with hot water or use a baby bottle brush and a little soap. The unit itself I just wipe with a clean cloth. Also, Nonstick cooking spray makes the whole thing just work easier, but if you don't like Nonstick spray, get a Misto and use your favorite oil, or if you really like real butter, you can use that too.

This is a clever yet simple small electrical Appliance. It is so easy to use that it's almost like you want to make it more complicated in your mind but it's really simple and a,brilliant design. I'm permanently physically disabled I do walk but I can't stand for more than 3 or 5 minutes at a time so my breakfast has to be fast and easy but healthy. This sandwich maker is absolutely just what I needed. 4 minutes - that's it. No fry pan to clean up and all that nonsense. It has a nonstick coating on all inside surfaces so you just literally when it cools down pull up pull up the griddle which are attached by a hinge and honestly, takes tall of 10 seconds to clean. I think the most ingenious part is that sliding motion after you're done you take that little protruding handle from the right and slide it all the opposite side and the sandwich comes out whole when you lift up the top and there it is. I wouldn't hesitate . For some reason mine takes only 4 minutes; at 5 minutes my English gets a bit burned. I cannot wait to try it with a bagel. I'm already thinking of creating a little English muffin pizza with mozzarella cheese on it and a tiny bit of sauce and seasoning.

My daughter has been using one of these for about a year and I recently purchased one of my own. It's a nice kitchen gadget that does a good job. I'm always looking for something quick and easy for breakfast and if I'm in a hurry I'll grab a protein bar or make some toast. I'm now able to make a pretty tasty and nutritional breakfast in just over five minutes. It takes a minute or two for it to warm up and I set the timer for five minutes and it's done. My typical breakfast with this sandwich maker is a whole wheat English muffin, either Canadian bacon or sausage patty, a piece of cheese, and an egg. The egg is always cooked to perfection (not runny) and I'm able to eat it in my car if necessary. I do have two complaints. First is the "beep". It will beep when it's ready to go, i.e., when the green light goes on, and it will beep when the timer gets to zero. However, you have to be standing so close to it in order to hear the beep you can just see the light or timer. Not a big deal but it would be nice if the beep was louder. My second complaint is that the sandwich maker doesn't shut off when the timer reaches zero; you have to unplug it since there isn't an on/off switch. Since the sandwich is pretty hot when it's done I'd be OK with leaving it in the maker for a few minutes while I did something else to let it cool down but you have to hover over the maker so you can pull the plug. I'd happily pay a few dollars more for that feature on this maker.

J'ai reçu cet appareil à McMuffin rapidement. Malheureusement je suis convaincu que l'appareil avait été retourné par un autre acheteur qui n'était pas satisfait du produit. J'ai l'impression que cette personne a dû trouver qu'à l'endroit où l'on met les ingrédients, c'était très « lousse ». Donc la personne a essayé de solidifier l'appareil, mais cette personne a forcé et « strippé » la vis du couvercle. Heureusement l'appareil fonctionne très bien malgré ce détail. Je l'ai donc gardé sans le retourner comme l'a fait la personne avant moi. L'appareil demande de la délicatesse... et ça fonctionne à merveille!

I use this machine for my kids’ breakfasts before school. Sometimes if I feel particularly tired or stressed, I make these the night before, wrap them and keep them in the fridge and quickly microwave them in the morning. My daughter drives herself and my son to school and before getting this machine, she would often go to Tim Hortons to buy a breakfast sandwich. She wouldn’t refuse any other breakfast at home but on the drive to school she wouldn’t refuse any be enticed by a breakfast sandwich on the way. This was money she didn’t need to spend then but especially now that we can make essentially the exact same sandwich at home now. My son is also very picky at breakfast time but can never say no to a sausage egg muffin so this machine has been particularly invaluable for him. Of course we could have made these sandwiches in a frying pan and toaster for them before but with chronic pain, chronic fatigue and orthostatic intolerance, it is near impossible for me to stand up for mire than a minute or two at a stove before I feel faint and dizzy. Now I can assemble the layers and sit down while everything is cooking. It really helps me a lot. Everything I do has to be measured, and planned so I don’t aggravate pain or pass out. Little things like this machine is hugely helpful and allows my kids to eat something they enjoy without being stressful to my body. My being upright and staying that way can change in 30 seconds. Being able to do something quickly and sit in between tasks is essential. It allows me to feel and be that little more productive and that is beneficial for anyone and everyone.

This thing is a beauty! If you are reading this, you need one. Perfect if you have a teen. They just make sandwich after sandwich.

I have used a previous version of this product for the past 15 years. No timer on it. It was time to replace it as the non-stick coating was starting to come off after 15 years. I don't think that its healthy to have that non-stick coating on your food. Basically used it almost 15 times a month for the past 15 years. Bought this replacement unit. Works as good as the previous unit. The timer is useful. It's a great breakfast sandwich maker. I hope this unit last as long as the previous unit. I would not recommend cleaning this in a dishwasher. I think that's what caused the non-stick coating to start to peel off on the old unit. I would suggest you hand wash it with a sponge.

This makes it so easy to make a breakfast sandwich
