Review: Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker


Today I am reviewing Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker.  I bought this at Home Outfitters for only $12.  The regular price was $29.99 but let me tell you how I got it for $12.  Maybe a couple to a few times a week I complete these surveys from Asking Canadians.  You just sign up, they email you surveys every so often and you can earn HBC rewards points.  The surveys range from like 10 to 20 minutes.  Then you can cash your reward points to gift cards.  I had earned enough points to get a $10 gift card which I used for this purchase.  I also had a 25% off coupon that comes in their flyer.  To get $25 you have to use your HBC credit card, if you use any other payment then the discount is only 20% with this coupon.  I was going to use my HBC credit card for the remainder of the balance, so that's why the cashier let me use the 25%.  Totally worth it to do these surveys and it's free!

 

Here's the box

The front of the box has this flap that opens up with instructions.


It's not too big, the cord is a bit short.


Here it is open.
 
 Plug it in and then gather your ingredients.  Take 5 minutes to heat up.
 
English Muffins, cheese, an egg and some cooked turkey.  You can customize any way you would like it.
 
Ok, it's ready when the green light is lit up.
 
Place one side of the English muffin on the bottom.
 
 Top it with whatever you like.  I'm using cooked turkey.
 

Also some cheese.  This is one slice of cheese but I broke it into 4 pieces so it would fit nicely.
 
Next the egg.  I like to slightly scramble my egg before I put it in.
 
I've put the egg ring down on top of the bottom of the English muffin and poured the egg in.
 
Even though the egg is not cooked yet, place the top of the English muffin on top of the egg.  It will get completely cooked through.
 
Close the lid and wait for 5 minutes.  A timer on the machine would help.
 
5 minutes later it's cooked!
 
Slide out the bottom of the egg ring.
 
Lift up the bottom ring and it's done!
 
The egg ring part is removable for easy cleaning.
 
Yum, homemade is the best!
 
 
Overall, I really enjoy making homemade breakfast sandwiches and being able to customize it exactly how I want it.  The Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich maker is easy to use and makes perfect sandwiches each time.  I will say that the cord is a bit short and it would be easier if it had a timer or if the green light could let you know when it is ready.  I have a George Forman grill and it has a light on it and it lets me know when whatever I am cooking is done.  I don't know how it knows but it does!  I can't see why this breakfast maker couldn't do the same.  Anyway, I'm happy with it.
