having bought the muffin maker Tristar which my delighted, I said as much to buy a larger and more efficient ... well when I got this model I have been disappointed. With 7 locations and 1400w, it is not as good as the Tristar. Boxes of dimensions 2cm diameter down at the top 5cm and 2cm deep It has the same size as the Tristar (4emplacements) The least is that I am burned up to open sometimes. J hesitate to return or can go I do enjoy my surroundings. Always it is that it works but the cakes are smaller and really mini, but the kids like and eat more! It cooks in about 10min muffins easy to clean
