Can this TINY appliance make an entire breakfast?

[@freefoodchef7939]

I have one of these, of a different brand, and mine has worked great for 12 years. It also only cost me about $25 at WalMart, and it includes a 24 oz coffee/tea maker. Hands down one of the best appliances I've ever had! I even travel with it to use in hotel rooms! Mine has a 15-minute timer. The trick to making the best use of it is to start the foods in stages. For example, get the griddle and toaster warming, then put the griddle food on, then when it's about halfway cooked put the bread in the oven and start brewing the coffee/tea. That's how everything turns out at the same time. My usual breakfast was to grill some fresh spinach and three or four Little Smokie sausages, then one or two eggs and toast half a bagel and brew a pot of coffee. Sadly, the brewer, after 12 years, is starting to lose some heat, so I recently bought another breakfast station by another brand that is still very compact, but has a griddle and oven that are both twice the size, and I can only hope it does as well!

[@numberoneappgames]

Breakfast multicookers are adorable. The whole thing would be great for a dorm or a place where you don't have a lot of space. :D

[@jillianburke2]

I can't imagine waiting 10 minutes for one slice of toast...Great video as always though 😊

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

That's where my nope factor ended (it began at getting a one-trick pony item like this in the first place). 10 minutes for ONE slice of toast is ridiculous. You can buy a hotplate or something similar and use a pan that can cook more than just breakfast.

[@wynngwynn]

That's not really a problem (you can set stuff up, go take a shower and then it's done when you're out), but there's 100 other appliances that can cook a whole breakfast that do more than just breakfast. 45 dollars is a lot, for just a littler more you could get a cheaper model instant pot and just use the saute function for the toast and be able to cook a ton of other stuff too.

[@jillianburke2]

@@wynngwynn it's a problem if you want 2 slices of toast

[@YourWealthCome]

Yeah that is bonkers! Other than the eggs who eats 1 slice of bacon, 1 slice of toast and one pancake. and we glossed over the cleaning aspect.

@@YourWealthCome Non-Americans. 😅😂

[@bradasstv]

These things always confuse me..I get it if you don't have a stove... Kind of... But I'd just buy an induction cooker and a pan and make it that way. Before people say what about toast, I do my toast in there sometimes too, like a grilled cheese without the cheese 😁

[@ODSTD56]

yeah I mean you could literally make a whole breakfast with one pan

[@bradasstv]

@@ODSTD56 exactly and it's more more flexible than something like this. These things remind me of an easy bake oven lol

[@tarstarkusz]

Multi-items like this always perform multiple tasks poorly. A lot of places that would rent you a room with no kitchen absolutely forbid things like induction cookers or electric griddles. If you're going to sneak using it, the LAST thing you want to cook is something like bacon or sausage which puts out a scent that will fill the building.

[@ydmf2]

Novelty item destined for landfill 😁

[@T-Mo_]

@@ydmf2 agree. I say that for a lot of the items he reviews.

[@knightsofneeech]

I like just making it all in one big pan. No toaster needed. 1. Put a little butter on both sides of the English muffin and put it butter side downn on the pan. 2. Cook up your egg and bacon in the same plan, just lay a piece of cheese on top of the egg if you want 3. Flip that steamy mother of an English muffin over and put everything inside. You'll get a little crispy and a little soft at the same time... very McDonald's

[@boss862]

I can imagine this working super well with a school dorm. Stick the muffin in for a minute first, then the bacon for a minute, and finally the egg for a full 5 minutes. I might think of giving this to my sister as a college dorm gift. I wish you covered how easy is was to clean because that's a huge factor in buying something like this

[@mst3kanita]

i would wonder if the sausage might set the smoke alarm off. Also, most colleges forbid something like this from the dorms.

[@1VK3]

Amazing how far your video production has come, James. Love the videos from your original kitchen. Kicking it back old school!

[@sebimaurer]

Great video as always! Those things always feel so gimmicky but this one at least comes with a nice glass lid and doesn't look like it will fall apart after a week of use. Cleaning might be a bit of a pain so i feel it must be a rather specific scenario where one would really wanna use this over a pan. Maybe a suggestion: The cleaning/maintenance of the product under test would be something i would really like to be included in future videos. I feel thats something which buyers don't always consider and often a reason why you stop using an appliance after a while.

[@nancybotwin4868]

This the shit you find at Goodwill in a couple years when people clean out their homes and realize they never use it lol

I'm sure I've left this type of comment before but I love when you do videos on these quirky products. I'm the type of guy who will late night shop on Amazon and think "hmmm, maybe that would work". Your channel has probably saved me thousands in bad purchases!

[@deoge3278]

I second that...

[@historicalcucumber]

I must admit I usually dont like gimicky food making gadgets but I bought the Hamilton Beach breakfast sandwich maker after your review of it a while back and I friggin LOVE that thing! It's so simple and easy to use and the things you can make with it are DELICIOUS!! I also don't have to get a bunch of dishes dirty in the morning. There's a reason why it has such great reviews....now if only eggs weren't so darn expensive right now lol.

[@a-b0t633]

Put your breakfast meat on the bottom plate. Turkey bacon cooks really well on it.

[@SprucedandGussied]

I went to an Asian market today to see if the eggs were cheaper there and they were $9 for a dozen. I swiftly left the store, It's the principle. I refuse to pay that much for a dozen standard eggs.

[@astroturfmatador9119]

I've had the HB sandwich maker for quite some time now and I love it. No need to buy the thing in this video.

[@TracyKMainwaring]

my daughter was given one when she was about 9 because she loved egg McMuffins. She loved having her own appliance LOL. It was even more basic than the one he just reviewed. I use it for just egg and cheese since I don't eat bread

[@gerardparker4220]

Yea I wish I could use mine more!! 😢

[@debbiestarman4485]

Can you imagine how cluttered your house would be if you bought gadgets like this for every little function you do? One for eggs, one for waffles, a vegetable chopper, bread maker, george foreman grill, etc. You'd need tons of storage and how often would you use them?

[@danielle1341]

I use mine all the time. I love little things.

[@suezq809]

I absolutely love your KZbin channel! So educational and you're so professional I absolutely enjoy watching you test items. Keep up the good work you're extremely entertaining in a very positive manner!

[@theresahaines2647]

I usually buy those frozen breakfast sandwiches and heat them in the microwave. It’s fast, cheaper and no dishes that need to be washed. 😊

[@ProductBasement]

That looks like a lot of cleanup. And if the cooker thing itself isn't too bad, remember that you have to cut the bacon in half with something and clean up the cutter and cutting surface

[@MnmShrimp]

Rip with your hands

[@hiddentruth1982]

looks like it had some hot spots in the top so rotating the food on the meat side will help. you miss out on the bacon grease for your eggs though.

[@Silentgrace11]

This definitely seems nice and compact, and fairly useful for people who don't have easy access to a stove or much stove space, like living in a dormitory, an RV, or in another country where stoves aren't quite as accessible (assuming you have a plug converter that is). I came this close to living in an apartment with a two burner stove, with both burners relatively small, and frankly had I moved there I probably would have opted for something like this just to have an alternate option for multi surface cooking.

[@jasonxhx7854]

"How about a quick taste test now I'll start off with toast... It's toast." top notch dude

[@insederec]

Wow I'm so glad we've migrated past the need for a hot plate so that we may use... a hot plate with a lid!

[@AWest-en5ee]

Seems okay for dorms, not really needed anywhere you can have a frying pan though!

[@CommodoreFan64]

If I did not have a stove, I'd just get either an induction hot plate, or an electric skillet with a lid, and temp control, and just do it that way as they are far more versatile even in a small space like an RV, or small apartment.

[@sandybruce9092]

After more than 20 years my stove/oven and microwave have both died!! But!! I have a portable Induction cooktop and it works for almost everything. Plus I also have a Breville Convection Oven that is downright amazing!!!

[@deniseboldea1624]

Contraptions like this might be good for trailer camping or a vacation cabin, but they seem to be more trouble than they're worth for every day use.

[@markbajek2541]

Sorta wish you would have powered it with one of your solar generators, see how much juice you had left after 3 or so stabs at making breakfast.

i think something like that would be ok to have if you lived in a camper/van if you was very tight on space

[@T-Mo_]

Would much rather have an electric hot plate and a pan. Not much bigger and more versatile.

[@munkustrap2]

​@@T-Mo_ Good for a college dorm. You can't have hot plates etc in those so this would be perfect. Since microwaves are usually allowed this probably would be ok too I'd think. The Hamilton Beach Sandwich Maker, in my opinion, would be better...unless your child likes sausage &/or pancakes of course.

[@T-Mo_]

@@munkustrap2 don't see the logic behind a hot plate ban while allowing this thing. Seems they both have exposed hot areas that could potentially cause a fire unlike a microwave. But if so it could be useful.

[@ponchinello3]

We have one. It is a learning process at first but easy to figure out and it's great, especially if your mornings are busy.

“Let’s taste the toast…. It’s toast “ 😂😂😂😂

This thing is $50. So unless you don't have the space a toaster and pans would cook more food at once and do a better job in my opinion

[@MasterMayhem78]

Only one pan and a toaster. Cook the sausage or bacon and use its grease to cook the eggs.

[@ImTakingYouToFlavorTown]

The toaster seems like the worst part of it, a cheap toaster works just fine and you get your two slices. Having to flip your meat half way through also seems to remove a lot of that free time you would get from not standing around to cook, like, what are you going to do with those two minutes?

[@VacMaster1991]

@@MasterMayhem78 Yep. Agreed

[@BriBCG]

Honestly this piece of junk is a space waster, not a space saver. Would be much better off filling that space with a hotplate or a regular toaster.

[@CannabisTechLife]

Seems mostly for dorm people who aren't allowed actual stuff like hotplates, microwaves or toasters. If I was to go out camping I would just bring a portable gas stove as it seems it would be much faster, and easier to control. Great video as always!

Well this really is nothing but a glorified hot plate with a timer, so It might not pass muster to be able to be used in a dorm.

i often eat at midnight in my room, while my family sleeps cuz im in college and don't eat during the day since it makes me tired. I often want to cook some stuff but don't want to be super loud and have to wash dishes or be in the kitchen for long. this seems like you can probably use it for many other things as well, like sometimes i make grilled cheeses in advance and wrap them for later. this can be a great way to heat them up again while making it toasted still, since i usually just microwave them. also im thinking you can heat up like a cheese sauce and have hot cheese to dip with noodles or nachos

[@bjpalm1994]

Another great review James! Everytime I see one of these "Breakfast Maker" contraptions, I always wonder "Who is this designed for?" Lol. I just can't see where the difference between them and an old fashioned stove or oven is. I guess these could be handy in small quarters or for someone that really doesn't like to cook. To each his own I guess, lol.

[@munkustrap2]

College/universities don't allow hot plates etc in dorms. My guess is that's who it's designed for.

When a 'bread' item is really moist, which most e-muffins are, it takes twice as long to toast. Personally I would put the one of the muffin sides up above and instead do back bacon on top of the egg, then flip halfway through. However, having said that, a 'single use' type appliance is just wasted energy. Even in a dorm or RV a Ninja foodie would be a lot more versatile... but that's just my opinion.😜

[@dra6o0n]

The issue with stuff like this is that you expect it to be lower on the power to go easy on some things, but nope it's full power. The heat for the toaster will be milder but the eggs and sausage will cook too fast. You could just get a simple electric hotpot thing that serves like a skillet. You can toast bread on a hot and dry surface, then remove and cook eggs and sausage after.

I prefer the toaster that makes egg sandwiches because it was a decent standard popup toaster. It had two little non-stick pans to cook one egg each and you steam your precooked meat over the eggs. The eggs came out fine, but half the time I just microwaved the meat in a paper towel. I stopped using it when the nonstick coating started chipping.
