MACONEE Microwave Sandwich Maker | Microwave Grill & Crisper | Cooks Fast, Dishwasher Safe, Black

Just like a pan toasted sandwich or Panini! WOW, it worked, I did spread squeeze butter on the bread before microwaving on high for 2 minutes, flipping then another 2 minutes, very fast. Pleasantly surprised at how it really toasted the bread and melted the cheese. I used regular sandwich bread, next time I'll use something denser like focaccia bread. This is a game changer for lunches at work and traveling in the RV. I can see it being a great college dorm item too. Clean up in dishwasher or by hand worked well. Good heavy build quality, easy to use, I bought the slightly larger size for larger bakery breads. For taste, it honestly tasted like I had fried it in a pan on the stove, surprised & pleased!

I just got this handy little gizmo, and I used it immediately. As a lover of toasties, I have never been able to get the perfect one using A conventional sandwich press. Based on the reviews, I decided to give this a chance, and it really does deliver. Simple to use and the crispiest, tastiest toastie I have had outside of an Irish pub! I made one with ham, cheese, and onion, buttering the bread on the outside, and after 4 minutes (2 on each side), it was ready. Hot, crispy, and delicious. And as the sides come apart, it's super easy to clean; it’s silicone and can go into the dishwasher ( I didn’t try that yet, but the instructions say it’s dishwasher safe)—5 stars from me.

The only problem that I have with this product is a very poor operating booklet. It comes with all the normal warnings, then it jumps immediately into recipes, which are written in a light and small type face, so you'll need a good light and glasses to read it. It should show how you put the plates together and lock them, but it doesn't. Yes, it may be easy to figure out, but not for everyone. Otherwise, it works well. A bit pricey, considering that electrically-operated units are similar in price, but simple, durable, and fast if you have a good microwave oven. In my oven, it takes less than 3 minutes to cook a crispy, sandwich. I give it 2 minutes on one side and one minute on the other (depending on thickness)... and yes, it will hold thicker sandwiches. It also makes great quesadillas! All it is, is 2 non-stick metal plates with durable silicone ends that serve as feet, safe pot-holders, and a clip to hold the plates together. Yes, the plates (but not the silicone ends) get very hot! The silicone ends don't hold together well with small sandwiches, but the weight alone is enough to put good grill-marks on the bread. I also put the device on a microwaveable dish, because there will usually be dripping when you flip the thing over. I was intrigued by the recipe for cooking raw chicken wings, so I tried it out (my wife just got a good deal). They say you should poke holes in the (defrosted) wings first, then marinate them for 1/2 hour in a barbecue sauce In your microwave oven... I put it in my favorite hot sauce with a bit of corn starch to make it stick. This took about 4 minutes to get some a pretty-crispy, tasty, well-done group of 3 wings (that's all it will hold) in my oven. Not much to go wrong here, since the product is very simple.

A delightful surprise of excellent quality this gadget knows how to toast, grill or sear-brown in the microwave oven! Results are delicious! Perfect size for one person or two, such a steal, I need two of them, children love it too, Great for Toad in the Hole, pre-cooked bacon, Grilled Cheese, Lean Ground Beef, Grilled Chicken, reheating pizza…just an amazing find! Cleans up in a snap with paper towel then soap and water, so easy to use like where has this been the past 20 years, storage. Love it!

Works as described but very poorly. Sandwich of almost every kind slip and slide around frequently coming out entirely as they are being turned. Do not buy!!!
