Tefal SM1552 Sandwich Maker

I did not trust that it will work but I am very satisfied with the product now

Good product, non sticking, easy to clean

The details do not tell you that this appliance comes with a continental 2 pin mains plug, so will not fit a 3 pin UK socket. I have had to buy an adaptor to make this work!

This sandwich maker is excellent and matched perfectly to my expectations.It very very handy and definitely good value for money.

Excellent product and very quick delivery, my little boys loved the toasties it makes

This product is impossible to clean. The plates are on no way sealed to the main body of the product so you get crumbs and cheese and stuff in the workings near the heating elements which I consider dangerous apart from the obvious dangers of using something for food that you cannot ever get properly clean. You have to unscrew the plates but it is not designed to have this done as part of a daily routine. At the back it seems designed to trap food and again it is impossible to clean properly without setting about it with cotton buds! I have dismantled mine in an attempt to clean it but on seeing the enormity of the task I have left it apart and will not use it. Tefal are also not interested in my complaint. I will never buy a Tefal product again as they are dismissive of these issues in an email saying it's the way I have been using it that is the problem. It's not. It's a genuinely terrible design. I know it was only £28 or so but honestly buy something different from this unless you want the odour of vaguely rotting food every time you open the cupboard with this sandwich maker in.

I wish the hot plates were easy to remove and put back. As it is, it isn’t even removable so I have to manually and carefully clean the plates with a wet sponge then add soap to the sponge then a wet but clean sponge then wipe dry. So complicated and inconvenient!

Smaller than expected but does the job.
