Handheld Sandwich Maker, Classic Sandwich Grill & Panini Press, Cast Aluminum Pie Iron, Retro 1945 Stovetop & Campfire Toaster for Hot Sandwiches, Pies, Paninis, RV & Camping

In 1970 my grandmother bought a cabin on the north shore of Lake Tahoe, had a fireplace put in and purchased a toast-tite from a local hardware store which she kept hanging on the brick wall of the fireplace. My sisters and I spent every winter break, spring break and a good chunk of summer vacation with my grandma and we LOVED Tahoe and that cabin. One of our favorite things to do was make sandwiches and pies in the fireplace or on the gas stove in the kitchen. Long before I knew what a Panini was, we were creating little sealed flying saucer shaped ham & cheese, salami, pizza sauce & cheese, fish stick & tarter sauce, sausage & scrambled egg sandwiches- Yummy little slightly crisp, golden brown sandwiches with perfectly melted cheese. It only took a couple of minutes for each one and we could easily make enough to feed all four of us in a short while. My grandma would use blackberries or peaches with a little butter, sugar and corn starch to make pie filling, we'd make dessert pies using white bread. They were divine and tasted extra good because we made them ourselves. I've always loved those memories and many times thought about getting a "pie iron" like my grandma had. I finally got one and it did not disappoint. I seasoned the inside with a few very light coats of peanut oil the night before I used it for the first time and used just a wee bit of cooking spray when making sandwiches. I tried it out on my induction stove top, it worked perfectly and took a little more than a minute for each side. This will be fun to use in the backyard on my little Weber Q and I might even use it on my little emergency butane stove during a power outage. I don't go camping any more, but it will be fun for beach fires too. LOVE IT♥ ps it's very sturdy and well-made, the quality is fantastic. The retro packaging is cute. Next time I use it I will come back and post some photos.

Thos is EXACTLY like the sandwich maker my grandfather used to make me grilled cheese sandwiches with. It works perfectly, and reminds me of my childhood. I highly recommend it!

Works great and fun to use. Great for camping or home as and backyard grilling. Anything you put inside comes out supper hot and flavorful. Roast beef ... Peanut butter and jelly will blow your mind.

The product works great, the sandwiches toast completely and come out easily. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that the unit is hard to handle when cleaning. The two halves use a rivet in the hinge as the pin to hold the halves together. I felt that I could break the unit if I was not careful. I ground out the rivet and replace it with a quick pull pin I bought on Amazon (VTurboWay 4 Pcs Quick Release Pin 1/4" Diameter, Usable Length 1") it fits perfectly and makes the unit very easy to clean. I know they wanted to copy the unit from the 50s (my mother used one for a treat lunch for me), but things can be improved and I think even just a bolt and wingnut would be better than the rivet.

It makes great flying saucer shaped sandwiches. I buy small 1/2 flower And 1/2 corn, tortillas, a little larger than this mold. Hold over medium flame about 5 minutes per side. It's a learning curve that depends on the flame heat and the sandwich content. I cook the runny ingredient first but otherwise just pack it in. Always use oil or grease for each sandwich or you'll have a difficult time getting the sandwich out. It will stick to the mold. I use avocado spray oil. Or Crisco. I replaced the pivot pin with a screw and nut. That way I can disassemble it and lay it in the dishwasher.😀

Para cualquier cubano, ver este fabricador de sándwiches (el clásico Toas-Tite) es hacer un viaje inmediato en el tiempo. En Cuba, este artículo era indispensable en casi todos los hogares; era el encargado oficial de preparar los panes para la merienda escolar. Comprarlo y volverlo a usar ha sido una experiencia sumamente reconfortante. No solo hace unos sándwiches perfectos, bien sellados y tostados, sino que llena la cocina de recuerdos inolvidables. Es una joya para revivir nuestra infancia y compartir un pedacito de nuestra historia con la familia. ¡Totalmente recomendado! 5 estrellas sin dudarlo.

This is a wonderful little thing . I had one when I was younger. Brought back a lot of good memories. And it works great.

I love this pie iron, it is perfect and creates the perfect sandwich. However, if you do not have a pair of heavy duty gloves to get it out of the fire you are screwed- since the handles are so short. It is a little annoying due to the fact every other pie iron I’ve owned in my life has had normal size handles, so I very much was not expecting a mini pie maker when it arrived.

حلو بس سعره مرتفع ومايصلح للتوست الي عندنا غالبا

Good quality product. Price is too high.

Sehr gute Toasteisen

This product is great, a replica of the original in every way and works exceptionally well.

Expensive Rip-off & Waste of Money the metal used is cheap lightweight therefore causes the sandwich to burn. The true originals used heavy cast iron so you could throw it onto a campfire ...! Thin &/or lightweight metal just Does Not Work. As with milk Thin Pots Burn the Milk Easily Thick Pots Distribute the heat evenly..! Don't Waste Your Money.. Buy Real Cast Iron you can find them on Amazon..! I will start looking now my self...!
