Question 1

Do I cook the egg and bread separately?

Accepted Answer

You cook everything together. This is my biggest issue with the device. There are only 2 separate cooking chambers. The bread is not kept separate from the wet ingredients during cooking. You put meat, cheese, etc directly on top of  bottom piece bread. As the food cooks the juices run down into the bottom piece of bread which results in a very well cooked outside of the bread but a soggy slimy inside. In the top chamber you add egg and then lay the other piece of bread directly on top of the raw egg. It’s gross. This machine would be great if the bread was separated from the wet ingredients.

Question 2

Why not just cook your egg in a small frying pan and assemble the sandwich yourself, and have less to clean?  What is so special about this product?

Accepted Answer

1. It's like an automatic coffee maker: you just put the ingredients in & 5 minutes later you have a perfect breakfast sandwich! 2. It's incredibly easy to clean up - just put the ring in the dishwasher and wipe the rest with a damp cloth.  Easier than a frying pan. 3. Perfect when you don't have a stove: dorm room, RV, boat, traveling, etc. 4. When it's hot out & you don't want to fire up the stove, this makes a quick hot breakfast without heating up the kitchen. 5. It makes all kinds of sandwiches, not just breakfast sandwiches!  We make lunch sandwiches, deserts, pancakes & eggs, the works.

Question 3

Difference between 25475A and 25475

Accepted Answer

The only difference between the two is their packaging. 25475A model ships in its original container, whereas the 25475 ships in Amazon packaging.

Question 4

does it take a lot of electricity to run?

Accepted Answer

Rated at 600 watts , It takes .6 kWh to run for an hour. That's slightly over a half a kilowatt hour. That's how you buy electricity by the kWh. You need to know how much you pay for electricity to know what it would cost you to run. But, for example. If electricity in your area is .13 a kWh it would cost you about one half a kWh or one half of .13 , which is .065 cents to run this appliance for a whole hour. Since you use it for 5 minutes to make 1 sandwich, the cost to make one sandwich is negligible. Put a different way. It would cost .065 cents (slightly over a nickel) to make 12 sandwiches.
