Read First Before Buy Proctor Silex 25400 Maker Sandwich Toaster
My favorite meal is a plain, simple, grilled cheese sandwich, and I'm tired of cooking them in a frying pan - including the flip. I'm now a Type II diabetic and am not supposed to eat them, but once every two to three months I just gotta have one (generally three) and have been totally disappointed by all the little pre-sized, so called, "sandwich" grills - including the Cuisinart model. They do not fit a normal size piece of bread and especially don't fit my favorite round loaf sour-dough French bread. Even though I like several grills that I've owned for meats, they just don't work for my sandwiches. So when I had an opportunity to purchase a Meal Maker at a reasonable price, I bought one for just that purpose and figured if I didn't like it, I wasn't out a very large amount of money.
Much to my surprise, the Meal Maker not only makes a great grilled cheese sandwich, it also holds the largest center slices from the large sourdough rounds with no problem at all. No cutting to fit required. I like my sandwich with a browned, toasty, surface, and the Meal Maker delivered. I butter the exterior of the bread before cooking and the Meal Maker delivers a beautiful brown at the same time that all of the internal cheese is completely melted. Yes, sometimes a little cheese leaks out (I cut the cheese to the max of the bread size) but don't have any problem with sticking as someone else has mentioned. That lifted right out with a spatula with nothing left behind.
For what I got it for, it is a very reasonable solution.

BalasHapusProduct came quickly and was as described. This is my 2nd sandwich maker of this model and I have been very happy with it. I recommend both the product and seller.
BalasHapusWe have had one of these sandwich makers for over a year. We like it and have had no problems with it. It is great for grilled cheese as it does a great job melting the cheese. It is also great for grilling bagels, cut them in half and grill them with one half on top of the other, cut sides on the top and bottom.
BalasHapusI take this machine on vacation with me because I always get a room that has a microwave and fridge. I bring bread, cold cuts, and cheese, and we can have a hot meal at any time. At home, I make scrambled egg triangles and keep them in my fridge for egg burritos during the week. I am a teacher and bring them (I own four) to school to make pizza sandwiches. All you need is a slice of mozerella cheese, jar of pizza sauce, and pepperoni, and pizza in no time.
BalasHapusWorks perfect. Makes great sandwiches. I have nothing bad to say about it. It's cheap, works fine...it serves great for what it is.
BalasHapusit is an amazing toaster with which i can try a varity of sandwiches.. It takes very less time..and even though u dont use oil or butter, the bread doesnt get stick to it ..worth buying for its price
BalasHapusI gave it as a birthday gift to my friend and he says that this is one of the best and the most useful things that I have given him ever.He uses it everyday and says that he hasn't faced any problems.
BalasHapusIt's really convenient for making breakfast in a busy morning. Just two pieces of bread, a slice of cheese, some butter, breakfast is ready!!! you can also add some ham if you like. Even my husband can cook!!! Ha!
