Breville TR13S Daisy Toasted Sandwich Maker

I bought this design for my daughter who loves cows of every kind. I thought she might take it to Uni when she goes but I can see we'll need to buy another as it's become so popular in our house. I bought it in B&M, which is the new name for Au Naturale stores in our area. At the paltry sum of £11.99 I thought it had to be a mistake, or that it would blow up within a week, but to my surprise it's remarkably robust and produces delicious toasties every time. You have to warm up the metal hotplates that are perfectly shaped to cut your sandwich diagonally in two when it's finished. When the green indicator light goes out, then off you go. ...  Read the complete review

I have had my Daisy cow sandwich toaster for over 5 years now and it is still working and looking fantastic. The sandwich toaster makes delicious hot toasted sandwiches in minutes. The idea is very simple place a slice of bread in the bottom and the filling on top the final slice of bread. Pull down the top halve of the taster and press hard to squeeze your sandwich in then pop the cows head down over the catch to hold it closed. A red light tells you when the toaster is hot enough for your sandwich. I leave my sandwich in there for about 4 minutes until it is a lovely golden brown then take it out and eat it while still warm. The cow sandwich toaster is black ...  Read the complete review

Kitchen appliances don't usually make the most fascinating of subject matter. Sure, you can make some top food with them, but how much can you write about a wok? However, when it comes to a special appliance like the subject of this review, things get a bit more interesting. So? - What is it? For the uninitiated a sandwich toaster is just what it sounds like - it creates a sandwich of two slices of toasted bread with some filling in the middle. "What about just using a grill like a normal person?", I hear you ask. Well, that's all well and good, but what a sandwich toaster makes is a proper sealed sandwich. Plus you can fill it with things ...  Read the complete review

I don't usually review appliances like this but sure nothing wrong with trying something new. We picked our Daisy up in B&M for a great price of £11.99 (I thought this was a mistake) and is still working a year later. Daisy takes about 5 minutes to heat up then you butter your bread on one side and make sure these sides are touching the plates. My favourite ingredients are cheese and ham but there are lots of other things you could put in it. Cooking time usually takes about 5 minutes and is very handy for a quick snack. You can cook 2 toasties at a time. Cleaning can be a bit of a nightmare, hard bits of bread get stuck to the plates and to ...  Read the complete review
