Back to Basics TEM500 Egg-and-Muffin 2-Slice Toaster and Egg Poacher Harry Potter7

Product Description

Workday mornings are a repetitive and harrowing transition from awakening, dressing, and travelling to work. Who has time to prepare a nutritious breakfast. So you end up picking it up at a deli, diner, or greasy take-out - sometimes waiting on line with all the others - and you're still running late. Back to Basics Egg and Muffin Toaster is an alternative.

Need toast? You've got it. Want a poached or hard boiled egg? It's yours. And if you want them together in your favorite breakfast sandwich, the Egg&Muffin Toaster also warms your pre-cooked meat. Bingo...ready to eat in about four minutes. It's sort of the drive-thru breakfast without the drive.

As a multi-function appliance, the Egg&Muffin Toaster expands the practical uses for this small electric by giving those with busy schedules more than just toast. The Egg&Muffin Toaster delivers in about four minutes a convenient and tasty morning meal that's both familiar and well liked. In addition to being a full-functioning toaster, the Egg&Muffin Toaster can simultaneously: 1) toast the bread, 2) cook an egg (poached or steam-scrambled), and 3) warm a pre-cooked slice of ham or sausage?or any combination of these three functions, in addition to boiling upto four eggs.

The Egg&Muffin Toaster features wide toasting slots, an auto shut-off for individual toasting and poaching options, an easy-to-clean control touchpad, and light to dark toaster settings. It also includes a removable crumb tray for easy clean-up and cord storage. The toaster's ?Egg/Toast? function directs cooking of both items simultaneously to complete at the same time.

Toaster, egg cooker, and meat warmer--this innovative unit combines all three functions into one easy-to-use appliance. The unit can be used solely as a full functioning toaster, or it can simultaneously toast bread, poach or steam-scramble an egg, and warm a pre-cooked slice of meat--or any combination of these three functions--to make the ultimate breakfast sandwich at home in just four minutes. Simply add 2 tablespoons of water to the heating tray using the included measuring cup, lightly coat the poaching tray with oil or nonstick cooking spray, and crack an egg into the poaching tray. Then place a slice of pre-cooked meat onto the warming tray and replace the lid. Add bread, an English muffin, croissant, or bagel into the wide toaster slots, select "egg/toast" from the control panel, and push the lever down to begin the cooking process. In addition to making breakfast sandwiches, the unit can also be used to boil up to four eggs at a time. Other convenient features include light to dark toast settings, automatic shut-off, an easy-to-clean control touchpad, a removable crumb tray, and handy cord storage. To clean, simply wipe out the heating tray and poaching tray with a damp paper towel. The toaster measures 7-1/5 by 15-1/4 by 8-1/6 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

Customer Reviews

Love it!
I was skeptical when I received this as a gift, but my husband and I LOVE it! It beats the drive thru by a long shot for egg muffin sandwiches, and works great for hardboiling eggs. I made sandwiches for my family when they stayed and now they all want one for Christmas. It seems sturdy, too, as I've had it over a year with no problems. I'm not big on gadgets but this one is really worth the cupboard space for the amount of time it saves.

A true value
Our complete family is very pleased with this toaster/poacher.

Toaster:
Bread is perfect and even every time.

The Egg Poacher:
This is the part that is a wow factor. I can make a single egg soft to medium in no time and all. Or you can soft to hard boil 4 at a time in the shell in 4 to 6 minutes. Also when you cook eggs can warm up pre-cook meat or fresh fish like salmon. The meat and fish are nicely steamed.

Clean up:
The unit is easy to clean up after cook egg(s) and meat/fish.

Suggestion:
When making eggs and toast at the same time. Let the egg(s) get half done then press cancel. Put you toast, muffin or bagel in and pick combo mode. This will let have these done about same time egg completes.

This is a great gift idea for Christmas. This is one gift that you know family and friends will enjoy getting.

Also look at this product for a great start to your day.

Great so far
I've had this toaster/egg poacher for about 2 weeks. I wanted to be able to make a fast breakfast for my 11 year old, who won't eat cereal, but likes poached eggs. We have used it every day, although she hasn't quite gotten to the point of doing by herself yet. I like it very much, both to poach eggs and make toast. It looks nice. The only drawback is that you have to place it so that you can see the side with the choice panel clearly - that is, it has to sit on your counter with the long side facing out. I've recommended the toaster to another friend and would definitely buy it again, so far. I am a bit wary because of the reviews about it breaking or falling apart - but I guess we'll see.
