I only use it for toast and pies.. it heats up quickly, cooks well, and the non-stick plates are good. The only downside is that it doesn't lift up to cook something bulkier, but still, it's very good. It seems fragile, it doesn't need much pressure.. It fits 6 regular toasts squeezed in and 2 pies (they stick out a little at the edges.)
I have only tried it for toast and sandwiches, not as a grill. The toast with a little butter on the bread comes out dreamy. The cheese inside is melted. I don't set it to full, just a little above half the intensity and they come out fantastic.
I bought the toaster because it had many positive reviews and because of its ceramic plates. The ceramic plate is a great thing after all. I never expected it to cook a steak in 10 minutes. I was amazed. A regular pork steak with the usual size of a steak. I cleaned it easily with a damp cloth and then I made toast. The device is super. It heats up quickly, the temperature adjusts as you want, and the size is convenient. I highly recommend it. Four stars only because the plates are not removable. But still, it cleans up very easily.
We got it for the vacation home and I am thrilled with how quickly and nicely it toasts. We have a more expensive toaster at home with removable plates, etc., but it requires patience. If you don't mind that the plates are not removable, just buy it!
I've had it for a month, and I've used it a lot, I hope it continues. So far everything is fine. The build quality is a bit cheap. The plates are not removable but they clean relatively easily. It fits 6 sandwiches if you squeeze them a bit.
It worked once and then stopped. The damage is internal, thermostat/resistor, etc., so I don't know how a photo would help. For safety reasons, I returned it and bought another one. I will come back when they inform me if I will be refunded.
I have had it for 3 months and I am very satisfied with the money I spent on toasting and burgers. It reaches maximum temperature in 5 minutes and cooks evenly. The build quality is proportional to the money you pay, like all products, I did not expect it to be made of solid iron. The handles are plastic and I doubt if they can withstand high pressure. Personally, I am satisfied. I will come back with a new announcement if something comes up.
It was only tested for toasting about 7-8 times in total (over a period of approximately 3 months).
The plates are non-stick and relatively easy to clean. The heat is distributed relatively evenly, as seen in the crust of the toast. It has the ability to open the plates at 180 degrees, and if used for fatty foods, it also has a small oil collection drawer at the back.
In terms of material quality, it is average with almost all plastic parts, and with the mentioned use above, it suddenly stopped working while the power indicator light was on, and the plates stopped heating due to a malfunction. That's why only 3 stars.
I won't comment on whether I recommend it for purchase or not, as I don't know if this specific material defect is common (and recurring) or rare.
Very good! I have it permanently on max and it toasts the sandwiches perfectly. I was a bit skeptical because it doesn't have the locking lever to press the sandwiches, but if you just press the handle a little, it makes the sandwich perfectly! Recommended!
