   Used it for the first time today. I love breakfast sandwiches and this really did a great job making them. Easy to use. Easy clean up. Couldn’t be happier with it. The only drawback I have is the bottoms of the English muffin gets toasted a little too much.

   I bought this for my 17 year old son. He loves breakfast sandwiches from Timmies, or anywhere. He is autistic. He is scarred to use the stove. He is working on food budget, making meals, and clean up. First time using it, I helped. 2nd time, he made me dinner. It is that awesome. He has used it every day for two weeks. I don't have to worry about protein intake. Best thing I have ever bought that has lifted him up. Successfully and cheap. He makes 4 of them in 8 minutes. He cleans up and is one step closer to independence.

   Makes amazing breakfast sandwiches quickly with little mess! It was recommended by a coworker and after reading many positive reviews I had to see for myself. I am very impressed with this little machine. I took the review advice and made sure to preheat so the egg wouldn’t run and I waited to drop the top half of the bread in until the egg cooked a bit and I had two minutes left on the timer. Turned out perfectly. Highly recommend!

   Tried this for second time. Some would say you'ee being lazy when you can just assemble a breakfast sandwich old fashioned way. But when you're a mom to a toddler this a game changer. I like how you can walk away and let more cook. Easy to clean and it detaches easily. Be better if it had on and off button. Or auto chut off when it's done. Still love it!

   This little machine is a time saver. It preheats quickly, and only takes 4-5 minutes to cook the sandwich. It's super easy to use and leaves little to no mess after it's done. You plug it in, let it preheat, when the green light turns on that means it's preheated. You add the bottom of the English muffin, place your cheese/meats/veggies on top, you pull down the top cylinder, slide in the egg tray, add the egg and then place the top half of the english muffin on top of the egg, close it and set the timer on the device and it beeps when the timer hits zero to let you know it's finished. Then you unplug it to stop it from heating (it does not automatically turn off when timer hits zero), then you slide out the egg tray and lift the two cylinders up and viola! You now have a perfectly cooked breakfast sandwich! Side note, in case you are curious, you need to add precooked meats to it, not raw meats. Bacon, ham and sausage all have precooked variants at the grocery store which will expedite the cooking process for you because you don't need to preheat it or cook the meat prior to cooking which will save time and reduce the cleanup afterwards. Egg leakage was minimal, and I'm pretty confident they little that came out it was from me feeling the need to adjust the tray while it was cooking. The only leakage I noticed was from using oil spray on it. The oil dripped when I lifted the top cylinder. It said to use the oil lightly if you did choose to use it, I definitely didn't use it lightly so that's more of a me issue. It's the perfect size machine, not too big and it's lighter than expected, so it's pretty easy to store away etc. The instruction manual is self explanatory, super easy to understand and gives you some trouble shooting advice incase you mess up somehow and it doesn't turn out how you anticipated. The only way I could see it not properly cooking the food is if you didn't let the machine preheat and you didn't set a timer. And again. I want to emphasize it's super easy to clean, the metal cylinders are also dishwasher safe. I would absolutely recommend this product for those who want a quick hot breakfast with very little cleanup required. And two recommended sauces, Cajun majo or salsa goes great with the egg sandwich and the best cheese to use with this is finely shredded mild cheddar! That's just my personal opinion though. Some people said it smells... I think that's probably because they didn't clean it before first use. I cleaned mine prior to using it and i don't smell anything. It functions well for what it is. And side note, if you have marble counters like I do, you may want to skip the spray oil or make sure it's a very small amount, because oil will destroy marble counters if you don't clean it instantly. The device is all non stick material so you really don't even need to use a non stick spray. Hope this helps!!! :)**Review update on 10/6/24, I've been using this daily. Still no leaks or issues and I've experimented with different English muffins and different meats etc and its made the sandwich perfectly each time. I do recommended toasting the English muffins first before putting them in this machine. But it will make it regardless it's just a matter of preference on how toasted you want the muffin. ***

   I love sandwiches, & I’ve bought a lot of sandwich makers, most are dusty in the backs of my cupboard after one use. I like to eat, but not so fond of lots of cleaning. Waste of calories. lol this gadget has me saving on using multiple pans, & utensils, & perfect sandwich every time. The shocker? I used a paper towel to wipe up the cooked egg, & cheese that spilled over. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing! It just wiped right off! No fuss! Easy to use, easy to clean, sandwiches are perfect every time. This sandwich maker stays on my counter. No back of the cupboard for this beauty.

   This is a great little breakfast sandwich maker. Perfect every time! We use pre-cooked sausage patties, real sliced cheese (not processed) and large eggs. The sandwiches cook perfectly every time, we lightly "pre-heat" the sausage patties and set the timer to 4.
   Here are a few things we discovered.
   1. MOST IMPORTANT. Make sure the unit is fully pre-heated
   2. Make sure that you use a quality non-stick spray on all cooking surfaces
   3. Only use large eggs. Extra large or jumbo will probably overflow
   4. We put the cheese on the bottom half of the English Muffin so that it soaks into the bun rather than on top of the meat.
   5. Pre-cooked sausage patties seem to work the best. Have not tried bacon, but Canadian bacon would probably work well
   6. Wipe the unit with a damp cloth as soon as it has cooled down. Hand wash the removeable parts as putting them in the dishwasher will degrade the non-stick coating.
   7. Enjoy your breakfast. Eat your heat out, McDonald's!

   Posted the after math of my first use. Very minimal mess.
   Made a better breakfast sandwich than any I've ordered ANYWHERE!
   
   probably because effort was put into it.. some what..
   
   5 mins and perfect. Toss in your toppings, make a coffee :)
   
   ( I agree with previous tip! leave the top bun for the last min, then add it! )

   Update March 2024:
   After 3 years of use, still works great!
   
   I absolutely LOVE this little machine!
   First great thing about it is that it is pretty much impossible to burn it or to even overcook it. The built in temperature is perfect to get your sandwich either real warm or steamy hot if you'd like, but not enough to burn it. Dummy proof! (I'm a dummy when it comes to cooking and I confirm it).
   
   In case you're a beginner like me, here's my favourite recipe that has been working great:
   
   Half an english muffin on the bottom (smeared with a little mayo), then a layer of chopped onion, shredded marble cheese and bacon, season with salt and pepper.
   Then lower the middle "rack", smash an egg on there, season with salt and pepper and close the lid. Set timer to 3.5 minutes.
   Then open the lid, put the top of the english muffin on the cooked egg and close the lid. Then open the bottoms of the middle "rack" and let the egg with the muffin top drop onto the bottom part of your sandwich. Cook for another minute and you're good to go!
   
   Piece of advice - NEVER put a muffin top on a raw egg, it WILL overflow as the egg rises during the cooking. I learned this the hard way. Wait until the egg is cooked, then add the muffin top.
   Other than that you can get real crearive with your sandwiches!
   
   I am super happy I bought this. The price is great and the product is too.

   We love the double sandwich maker with or without the top buns🤗 Updating that after experimenting found a bun that fits the unit. Of course English muffins will fit, but if you prefer a non English bread, this Artesian bun is perfect size.I don't like squishing or cooking my top bun. Instead after the egg on top ring is cooked (nice to be able to peek and see) than I add the top bun, it still warms up nicely without being squashed from lowering the top.My bottom bun is placed right away when preheat green light comes on.Than I place deli meat, cheese, fresh spinach in that order in bottom ring to cook. (Or any other ingredients).I then lower the lid to heat back up until the green light comes on...I have my eggs ready in advance to open the top to fill in top ring.Always crack your egg on a flat surface, not the edge of ring. This prevents a uneven break and chips tend to drop inside. You want a flat crack then use your thumb to gently continue the break into top ringer. Season your eggs than close and set timer. That could be 4-5min. Nice thing is you can peek at egg with no top bun on it. If it looks like how you want your egg, remember the cook time for next time.Note: those that keep unit open too long doing this, or do not preheat the unit to start, will have longer cook time or a mess! Because a cold unit the egg will run out below the rings.**Green light means at temp go for it👌it takes about 2 min?**Red light means ✋ wait, its got to turn green first! All you did was plug the power in😉Cleaning unit: I place the rings in sink using the handles I run hot water and my soft brush with dish soap to quickly clean. If you always use a Pam like spray nothing sticks.For the unit NEVER place in your sink to clean! Use a damp paper towel or cloth while the unit is still warm, use your spatula not metal to move around and clean. When it's still warm it's sanitizing, I rarely need soap on unit. Think of it as your waffle maker same thing hot sizzling damp cloth cleans. You can use soapy cloth first but I find no need to, nothing sticks because I used Pam.My tip: I actually prefer cleaning the hot unit before I eat ( my sandwich is too hot to eat immediately). I do the inner rings after im done eating, which is perfect time for them to handle, not too hot😉👍Have fun😄we love and use everyday!

   This is honestly the BEST little contraption! I would always grab breakfast sandwiches on my way to work and spend $5 each time. Well, now I can make breakfast sandwiches using ingredients like goat cheese, roasted red pepper dip, hot sauce, basil etc. The bread is toasted in the maker and everything is perfect and ready in 4 minutes. In the 4 days we’ve had it, we would have already spent more money buying breakfast sandwiches (if we bought that many, of course!)
   
   My kids keep asking for breakfast sandwiches at every meal! I even made myself round egg on its own because I didn’t feel like having bread!
   I saw a previous reviewer complained that the egg leaked. It does NOT leak. You just have it make sure you don’t crack the egg until the preheat light comes on. This is honestly the most convenient versatile little sandwich maker. I highly, highly recommend it!
