If you're heading off to college, renting a small studio space, remodeling the kitchen, or just love grilled cheese, the Meal Maker sandwich toaster is a great stand-in for a full stovetop. This sandwich toaster not only makes fancy panini-style grilled sandwiches in minutes, but also batter-based items, such as pancakes or omelets, as well as turnovers or French toast. An indicator light turns on when it's ready to cook, and another indicator lets you know when your meal is ready. Once you've placed a sandwich or other items into the toaster, the cover latches shut to keep batter in place or sandwich edges crimped. The nonstick grilling surface wipes clean with a damp sponge or paper towel, and the sandwich toaster can be stored either horizontally or vertically, depending on space limitations. --Julija Gelazis
This review is from: Proctor-Silex 25400 Meal Maker Sandwich ToasterI recieved this item as a gift from my neighbors. It was a true gift because I would not have purchased something like this for myself. I eventually found many uses for this little electric grill. As mentioned in the editorial review above, this grill is useful for batter based foods as well as for making sandwiches. Because we prefer hot cake, I have found it very useful for making small snack cakes. Using a standard cake mix with ordinary preparation, the bottom half of the griddle can be filled with batter. The batter will expand to fill the top as it cooks. The additional batter can be refrigerated for use the next day. The same is true of corn bread, pancake mix, browny mix, etc. The best part is the fact that the cakes will cook in just a few minutes. Pre-heating takes only 3-5 mins, and cooking about 4-8 depending on what you are working with, considerable less than the time to bake in a full size oven. This unit is also a welcome addition to the arsenal when battling toddler pickyness. Small portions of various items can be quickly prepared with out heating a full size oven. The way that it seals the bread at the seems when making sandwiches makes it useful for making healthy homemade "hot pockets" for lunches, as you control the ingredients and leave the preservatives at the store. Cresent roll dough can be stretched, doubled-over and filled. Although they are somewhat atypically shaped you get perfect omlets every time, without flipping. Simply chop/shread cheese or vegies add to scrambled eggs and fill the bottom. Although this grill has an easy to clean non-stick surface, I found it useful to wipe with an oiled cloth prior to cooking, PAM or a similar product would also work well. The effort I save putting together quick healthy lunches and snacks using this device, I have transfered to planning and preparing more elaborate meals in the evening, or entertaining....
This review is from: Proctor-Silex 25400 Meal Maker Sandwich ToasterI love grilled cheese and mini taco's of leftovers inside corn tortillas. But now, I use my George Foreman grill instead because:1. Steam gets trapped and makes some sandwiches soggy.2. I like the grill marks better on the GF grill.3. Cleanup is a disaster if the filling spills over. 4. The non stick coating is fragile....
This review is from: Proctor-Silex 25400 Meal Maker Sandwich ToasterIf you are looking for a nice warm soft somewhat suggy sandwich this product definitely deserve five stars.However if you like myself are looking for a sandwich with nice toasted and crunchy bread slices (even slightly burned would do) then this is not what you are looking for....
