I’ve used one of these for years so here are my tips for best results. 1-spray a little oil on the trays even though they’re non stick. 2-only use 3 eggs between the 2 trays, plus a very little milk. 3-don’t add the grated cheese till the two omelettes are nearly ready. 4-always precook any meat like bacon or chicken, or use ready cooked chopped ham etc.5-use 2 spatulas to remove omelettes, one at each end, as they can sometimes break up. If by any chance there is still a raw looking bit in the middle which won’t set properly, put the omelette on a plate and microwave for a few seconds.

[@OldFoodGuy]

Thanks for the tip

[@Viking19077]

3 eggs between 2 trays seems odd?

[@katperson7332]

@@Viking19077 It does, but the reason is that the omelette recesses are not deep and so there’s a chance that the whisked eggs may spill over the sides, or they may not cook properly in the centre. It’s not impossible to use 4 small to medium size eggs though, especially if you prefer not to add any milk or fillings like chopped tomatoes/chopped meat etc.

[@independentpuppy7520]

Good price but I'm not bothering with any more kitchen gadgets. I find I only use very rarely so they just gather dust. Gave some away to a charity shop. Hand blender, coffee maker, and sandwich toaster. Just took up space and used once in a blue moon.

[@OldFoodGuy]

same mate, most of mine are never used

[@nicktheegg]

£5! Absolute bargain! Can't even buy a pint of draught Guinness here for a fiver. Nice one OFG, all the best to you and the family 👍

[@OldFoodGuy]

Thanks Nick mate

[@Gillby47]

I bought that from Aldi last year,I use it for frying eggs,it takes very little time to cook,as it cooks both sides you don't get snotty eggs which I hate.Last week I used it to make a mushroom omelette for the first time it didn't take 5 minutes,just 3.Great gadget.

[@Pythonaria]

I bought my one from Aldi about 5 years ago when it was on reduced price. Think I paid £5.99 for it. It's a great little gadget for those nights when I want a break from cooking or we just want a light meal. Cheese omelette is our favourite. Never thought on using it for frying eggs 🙄 Got to give that a try.

[@popcornboxing369]

Is it still working a year or so later? Not a lot of money a fiver.

Thanks for the review I've just bought one of these to save washing up and more to use my cooker less with energy bills going through the roof .

[@OldFoodGuy]

Glad I could help Ian

[@xvsupremacy7190]

I think that’s the aim of us all 🇬🇧 to economise on electricity ⚡️. I am going to buy one myself . We seldom use the big oven now, but we make pies 🥧 like a tin of creamy chicken with mushrooms and scallions in the little white oven that stands on top of the kitchen counter, so you don’t have to compromise with nice home cooking huh .

[@joedaman8436]

They sell some right crap in B&M, it's like the Pound shop but with a higher mark up.. I wouldn't buy anything from there again.. I mean how often are you gonna use that omelette maker?? I would make one quicker in a pan? Lol.

You are welcome Frances

[@hyperhype1000]

You should try cooking a few other things on it as displayed on the packaging. Some Chicken and Veg for a Kebab on one side and a Pita or Flat-Bread on the other. looks like something a Student could use If they're House sharing and don't want all the drama with the Kitchen and their food being stolen.

[@OldFoodGuy]

Great idea hyper Thanks

[@thetravellingtokers6385]

I’m gutted mate I just sent my girlfriend to BnM to get 1 but out of stock 😩 they had a bigger more expensive omelette maker at£15.99 so sod that mate “” I need a spliff now to cheer me up 👍🏻😎👊🏻 cheers & BIG RESPECT

[@OldFoodGuy]

£5 Bargain

[@williaminnes7574]

Good review ... I'll give it a go ...

[@OldFoodGuy]

Worth £5 mate

[@IamNotANumber]

Thanks for this. I'm popping down to B and M this week so I'll see if they're on offer. I'm rubbish at omelettes they usually become scrambled eggs!

[@OldFoodGuy]

For £5 it's a bargain

[@ynwalfc.9711]

Lol 😆 same as

[@PotatoPirate123]

Mate you just need a better non stick pan and to grease it. Omelettes are very easy if you give yourself a fighting chance from the outset. This is basically a non stick pan with a heating element underneath it, so I can't really see why or how it's any better or easier than a saucepan other than that it costs £5. Once the non stick coating becomes less effective (as all non stick coatings do) it'll be next to useless. Having said that, for £5 I'd have probably bought it too Just to add to this, a pan makes it easier to crisp up the onions or bacon and cook any other ingredients before you put the egg in. This seems a bit limited to be honest and even, my young kid can make an omelette in a saucepan. I call this sort of thing a dust catcher.

[@Jewel-ju2qz]

I'm rubbish at omelettes! off to b&m in the morning! thankyou 🙂

[@davidphillips2259]

And know your a chef 🧑‍🍳 just like a sandwich maker 👍🏻

[@jarikinnunen1718]

That is excellent to frying onions. Only to get it out is tricky. I turn it sideways on plate.

[@OldFoodGuy]

[@deathbycocktail]

Love an omelette but yeah, I always cook stuff off first too. I think if you're in a bedsit, say, or maybe don't have easy access to a hob then this is amazing for a fiver. Not for me but great review!

Totally agree!

[@ruthsmith2367]

£5 is great I will check it out thanks. You could have cooked your stuff in it, then just added your eggs. With heat on top and bottom it would take no time. I’m thinking this would have loads of uses instead of putting the oven on, chicken maybe fish fingers if you have kids. It would be cheaper then heating up an oven 😊

[@irenedavo3768]

Use Ham not Bacon?

[@JulieAngela304]

I like this and definitely worth a fiver. I think I will use smoked ham instead of bacon, great vlog.

I have one of these and also the copper chef which is the same kind of thing. I find that bacon tends to be boiled in these devices. Best for omelettes. Good for quick meals. Thanks for your video. If you can get one try a sausage roll maker. These are very good if you like sausage rolls. I have one. You can cook fresh sausage rolls with few additives using sausage meat and ready rolled pastry or make your own pastry. Check out the videos demonstrating them. Also pie makers are very good.
