Very good and very handy. A bit on the small side.

Affordable and excellent quality
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

This is the kind of product that makes you feel glad you were wrong this time. Sometimes you look at a product's price and you think "for this price, this is probably not good", and then you find out that it actually is and that you got a bargain.I love cooking, and I'd rather spend two hours in the kitchen every day whipping up a complete meal than making a sandwich, but I'm a university student at the moment and let's face it, not everyone loves cooking as much as eating. I bought this because sometimes I would feel tired and also because sometimes I wouldn't have enough ingredients to make a complete meal, so I wasn't expecting much out of this product.I've been using it a lot lately because I found it to be so easy to use. I never ever buy sandwiches outside anymore and I'm saving tons of money.The product came in a nice box, it was well packed in a plastic bag, and included a user guide explaining what to do for the first time and how to maintain the product. I wasn't expecting any of that for something of this price point, I only thought I'd see some cryptic chinese-english instruction on the side of the package, but it comes with complete English instructions, nice.The first thing I see when I buy an electrical appliance to check for the quality is the power cable and plug. You might find this weird, but the UK plug is one of the safest I've seen and if it's well built in the product with a strong cable, it means that the product is safe and will probably last. The cable is thick and flexible, none of that cheap stuff you find in the bargain bucket in the grocery store. The plug is also strong and yes, there's a fuse compartment for it and the earth pin is actually connected to it. I have two cheap appliances that I bought that I verified upon opening the plug that the earth pin wasn't used, which is bad because you're using these things near the sink and you don't want water to get into it. I'm not saying that I will drop it into the sink, I'm simply saying that the manufacturer did it right.Outside, this

Excellent service again from Amazon. The toaster works very well and makes very good sandwiches with no fuss and bother. Much better than my last toaster, bought elsewhere

I bought this sandwich maker as it was cheap and I only use one occasionally. It was an excellent buy and I have used it more than I thought I would. It is easy and simple to use and does not take too long to do the sandwiches. The plates do not come out for cleaning but I have not found this a problem as, if you wipe them over immediately with a damp cloth, they come up clean, no problem. I used to have a more expensive model with removable plates and to be honest it was a pain having to take the plates out and then refit them after cleaning - this is much better.I was so impressed with it I bought another one for my young neighbours who have recently married and set up home.

Brilliant!

I got one of these as an early Christmas present for my lovely girlfriend (well, for me really). It worked brilliantly! She went straight to the kitchen and made me two cheese toasties which I thoroughly enjoyed. I heartily recommend you purchase this wonderful product.

Excellent value for the price
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I used to have a more expensive model with removable plates, except that every time I opened it when it was hot the top plate fell out; try putting it back in when it's hot enough to toast bread! Anyway, this model does not have removable plates and heats up quite quickly. On the down side, the indicator lights are very dim and you will need to stand directly over the machine to see when the green light is lit, or keep turning off the kitchen light.I would suggest giving the plates a good wipe when you take it out of the box, then switch it on with nothing inside and leave it for 10 minutes or so, otherwise the smell of burning metal can end up in your first toastie (and it doesn't taste very nice, I can tell you).Also, the top slice of bread needs to be placed further back than the bottom slice, as the top of the sandwich maker will push to top slice forward allowing the filling to escape (more cleaning).All in all, very good value for money with free delivery from Amazon Prime.
