Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I used to have. Ronco version of this from the 80’s lol. And my mom and I were reminiscing. We couldn’t find it anywhere. I’m sure my brother stole it! I decided to look for one for mother’s day. This hit the mark because I have a parrot and Teflon in toxic for birds. Most others are Teflon coated. Many others were much more expensive. There were fancier ones that had more bells and whistles, but the copper and the fact that the nostalgia was the true gift made this one the perfect purchase. She makes mini apple pies in it. Always has. But if you have tweens, it’s great!!! We always used it to make anything you can buy as a hot pocket now. Pizza was the obvious favorite. Fast, you can be creative and make all kinds of things. It’s a good transition into cooking. It’s harder to burn yourself than the stove, the over, or even the toaster oven. And it wipes out clean like a charm. Brings back great memories. It would be great for a dorm room. Those mini apple pies, let me just tell you!!! It’s easier now. They sell premade cinnamon apples because Boston market made that a popular side. All you need is a little butter or substitute and put in some of that, seal it - in a few minutes you can have 4 apple pies better for you than McDonalds!!! GREAT for eggs and little omelette too!! Like an omelette bar. No need to use bread. All these types of machines are modeled after the machine I grew up with. The draw with this one was the copper- safe for my bird, and the copper. But in general, these little guys are so much fun to cook with and to start your kids cooking in a much safer way than the alternatives.
