After my 10-Euro-sandwich maker, who gave up the ghost (the coating came off and therefore the toast stuck just so tuned), I decided something more money so invest a device and chose this. Already alone the interchangeable plates are super, easier washing. And you can not just make sandwiches, but also on the balcony or have a barbecue comfortably in the living room. And fresh waffles for coffee are not a problem. Very good, I find that this machine uses the great American sandwich slices (my friend does not like this buttered toast) fit easily inside. Put some are brushed with butter or oil and away you go.
