FAQs
Can I use this on an induction stove?
No, this model is not compatible with induction cooktops as it does not have the necessary magnetic base.
Is the ceramic coating safe?
Yes, the coating is PFOA-free, ensuring a safer cooking experience without toxic chemical emissions.
How do I know when the sandwich is ready?
Because it is manual, you can simply open the maker briefly to check the browning level of the bread.
Can this be put in the dishwasher?
No, we recommend hand washing only to protect the ceramic non-stick finish.
Is the handle oven safe?
No, the handle is made of bakelite and is designed for stovetop use only; it should not be placed in an oven.
What is the weight of the sandwich maker?
The unit is designed to be lightweight and portable, making it easy to carry in a backpack for camping or picnics.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the surface
Ensure the ceramic coating is clean and not damaged. Use a light coating of butter or oil before placing the bread.
Bread is burning on the outside but cheese is cold
Lower the stovetop heat. The aluminium body conducts heat rapidly, so a lower setting allows the heat to penetrate the center.
The unit is difficult to clean
Soak the unit in warm, soapy water for 10 minutes to loosen burnt residue. Do not use metal scrapers.
