I have one of these, of a different brand, and mine has worked great for 12 years. It also only cost me about $25 at WalMart, and it includes a 24 oz coffee/tea maker. Hands down one of the best appliances I've ever had! I even travel with it to use in hotel rooms! Mine has a 15-minute timer. The trick to making the best use of it is to start the foods in stages. For example, get the griddle and toaster warming, then put the griddle food on, then when it's about halfway cooked put the bread in the oven and start brewing the coffee/tea. That's how everything turns out at the same time. My usual breakfast was to grill some fresh spinach and three or four Little Smokie sausages, then one or two eggs and toast half a bagel and brew a pot of coffee. Sadly, the brewer, after 12 years, is starting to lose some heat, so I recently bought another breakfast station by another brand that is still very compact, but has a griddle and oven that are both twice the size, and I can only hope it does as well!

I like just making it all in one big pan. No toaster needed. 1. Put a little butter on both sides of the English muffin and put it butter side downn on the pan. 2. Cook up your egg and bacon in the same plan, just lay a piece of cheese on top of the egg if you want 3. Flip that steamy mother of an English muffin over and put everything inside. You'll get a little crispy and a little soft at the same time... very McDonald's

Great video as always! Those things always feel so gimmicky but this one at least comes with a nice glass lid and doesn't look like it will fall apart after a week of use. Cleaning might be a bit of a pain so i feel it must be a rather specific scenario where one would really wanna use this over a pan. Maybe a suggestion: The cleaning/maintenance of the product under test would be something i would really like to be included in future videos. I feel thats something which buyers don't always consider and often a reason why you stop using an appliance after a while.

This the shit you find at Goodwill in a couple years when people clean out their homes and realize they never use it lol

I can imagine this working super well with a school dorm. Stick the muffin in for a minute first, then the bacon for a minute, and finally the egg for a full 5 minutes.

This definitely seems nice and compact, and fairly useful for people who don't have easy access to a stove or much stove space, like living in a dormitory, an RV, or in another country where stoves aren't quite as accessible (assuming you have a plug converter that is). I came this close to living in an apartment with a two burner stove, with both burners relatively small, and frankly had I moved there I probably would have opted for something like this just to have an alternate option for multi surface cooking.

I usually buy those frozen breakfast sandwiches and heat them in the microwave. It’s fast, cheaper and no dishes that need to be washed. 😊

looks like it had some hot spots in the top so rotating the food on the meat side will help. you miss out on the bacon grease for your eggs though.

Can you imagine how cluttered your house would be if you bought gadgets like this for every little function you do? One for eggs, one for waffles, a vegetable chopper, bread maker, george foreman grill, etc. You'd need tons of storage and how often would you use them?

I would use Canadian bacon like McDonald’s. Less cooking than regular bacon.

"How about a quick taste test now I'll start off with toast... It's toast." top notch dude

Thank you for the test. Very encouraging on the use of this product.

I'm guessing the element at the bottom does all the cooking. Pleasantly surprised though.

For not much more you can buy a hot plate, pan and toaster. Maybe I can understand saving a little space, but the trade-off is you have a tiny griddle with extremely limited cooking uses. Wanna make a stir-fry? No. Cook a bagel? Only half of it.

If I was using this. i'd put the english muffins on the top for one cycle to toast them and get the plate warm. Then stick them in the drawer to "keep" and maybe add a bit of cheese. then cook the sausage patty in the circle one (like a legit sausage patty) and use the bigger one for a scrampled egg patty. (this is where i'd probably actually put the cheese honestly)

a one induction burner and a good pan can replace that completely. You can put bacon, sausage and pancake to cook at the same time, then do your toast, or get a toaster.

You bit that toast twice! 😂 What happened on the first bite?

Sounds like a handy product for the right situation.

I think of all the multi breakfast cookers, this one is the most appealing

This would be good for someone who stays at hotels a lot for work. Or maybe someone who lives in a dorm.

One little pancake would just piss me off.

Oh, an egg. Flaunting your wealth at us there, James?

So many gadgets, that the British don't want, need or could afford! :)

Certainly not for a home but yeah, I could see it in a dorm room or something like that.

When a 'bread' item is really moist, which most e-muffins are, it takes twice as long to toast. Personally I would put the one of the muffin sides up above and instead do back bacon on top of the egg, then flip halfway through. However, having said that, a 'single use' type appliance is just wasted energy. Even in a dorm or RV a Ninja foodie would be a lot more versatile... but that's just my opinion.😜
