Even after reading the reviews, I was sceptical, but I went ahead and bought it.We are toastie lovers so tested it out as soon as it was delivered, and I have to say that the result was perfect!Quick, crispy and no mess!Even though our traditional toastie maker has removable plates, its still a faff to clean, as the cheese somehow manages to seep everywhere - but it was totally different with thisNo preheating, just prepare your bread, choose your filling, clamp it into the gadget and pop it in the microwave and hey presto its ready!Crispy, hot and perfectNo seepage, no mess, no hassle!But the enjoyment doesn't stop there, as the clean up process is a breeze tooThis new toastie maker is much smaller - making it far more accessible in the 'gadget cupboard'Its much quicker to use - so its not a hassle to have toasties anymoreIts much cleaner - so the clean-up dread is no longer an issue10/10 from usWe have already recommended it to friends & family in the hope that we will soon convert everyone!

Everyone in my family loves this. It really works well and is quick and easy with no mess. Perfect for self catering holidays. And good for gluten free toasties when there is no dedicated toaster available. It will make normal toast just as well. Easy to clean, and will go in the dishwasher too.Just one note, it is better to use proper butter rather than the spreadable kind as there is water in those and it doesn't come out so crispy. Let it cool after making 2 toasties if you are doing a lot, as it will overheat.But we love this.

Easy to use . Lovely crisp sarnies. Really happy to have found product. Be careful like the instructions say as it gets hot after use. It comes apart to clean in dishwasher but Slightly fiddly to tuck metal part inside the rubber cover if your fingers aren’t good .

Great little gadget. Only takes a small slice of bread but works really well, just butter each side, plonk it down, add filling carefully not to the edge, seal and ping for about 2 mins. Miraculously you end up with a crispy toastie! He only weird thing is that if you use too little cheese, it kind of vanishes into the bread. Easy to clean up too. Saves the faff of using the big taostie maker.

So which toastie in the photo is the microwave one and which is the traditional method?Following the instructions - no different from a normal toastie maker- I loaded the new micro toastie maker with buttered bread, ham and Brie. After putting on the top slice I locked the sides of the maker and encountered my first problem/concern - the sides of the toastie maker do not meet, meaning there is a large gap where the top and bottom join. Convinced this would not go well, and all the fillings would spill out of the sides, I decided to make a back-up in my traditional toastie maker.Whilst the old maker heated up, I cooked the new one in the microwave for 2 minutes (I have a 800W microwave). I then turned it over (the whole machine i.e. the orange maker not turning the actual toastie) and cooked for a further 2 minutes. Removed from the microwave with oven gloves and my traditional maker was now ready to cook.5 minutes with the old toastie maker and I have 2 completed sandwiches for comparison.The toastie from the new maker slid out easily, no mess, no anticipated spillage, no residue, just a well sealed toasty - I was quite amazed so don’t be put off if you have a significant gap around the edges like I did!The toastie in the traditional maker, as usual, stuck to the metal plate and required a little help in removing.Taste test. Both toasties tasted good. Both were cooked and both were on par with each other for the filling taste and cooking. However, the microwave toastie was far crispier, browner and not soggy like the traditional one. It looked like a professional toastie and didn’t taste far off!My biggest surprise was how brown and even the microwave one made the bread and how dry and crispy it became.So, as you will have guessed, the toastie from the microwave in the photo is the one on the left and the traditional one is on the right!Cleaning is also a big bonus - it only required a wipe over whereas the traditional machine needed a proper clean from butter and leaked cheese. In future I will put the microwave safe plates in the dishwasher but for one quick (and I mean quick) toastie a quick wipe is sufficient.A game changer for me and for lunches.I would note that the bread I have used is gluten free so slightly smaller in size which helps.I also bought the maker on offer so it makes it incredible value for money and very easy to transport to use in the kitchen at work making lunches more exciting and economical.Also looking forward to using it to reheat pizza slices with a crispy top for something different.A massive 5 stars from me for a useful, unusual and different gadget!

This is an amazing toast machine. For use in the microwave too. Makes exceptionally tasty toasties. Easy as y to clean too.

Great little toastie maker. We use due to having coeliacs disease. It's perfect for using when traveling due to its compact size. Easy to use, easy to clean. The toastie came out perfect.
