I have a microwave egg fryer and find it a real boon in the kitchen. It is quick and easy to use, making perfect fried eggs each time with no need to stand over them. I was hoping for the same thing with this microwave toaster, but I was disappointed. At least I did not lose too much money as I bought this item from Temu and paid just under £10 for it, which is about half the Amazon price.

In the attractive and colourful box, I received the toaster itself, together with a colourful but not very helpful user guide. Build quality seems fine and of decent quality, with nothing looking likely to fail or fall off any time soon.

The toaster consists of two non stick ribbed metal plates, each housed in a thick 17 x 14 silicone jacket. The metal sheets are shaped and coated in such a way as to heat up when subjected to microwave radiation without sparking or burning. Place bread or other foodstuffs between the plates, and the contents are grilled by the heat from the metal plates without the direct effect of the microwave energy. The cooking time needed is determined by the nature and thickness of the food and the power rating of the microwave oven. That is the theory.

I found the reality to be somewhat different. Using my 800w microwave oven, I found cooking times to be inconsistent and erratic. A standard Uk sliced loaf is too large for the plates, meaning that the top inch or so of each slice has to be removed before use. Failure to do so means the projecting inch will be white, bone dry, tasteless and inedible.

Toasting a single slice of bread took around 3 minutes and 15 seconds - 3.00 minutes was white, 3.30 burned. Even when correctly toasted the results were bone dry and more like French toast than normal toast, which should be brown on the outside but still moist and soft inside.

I attempted a simple toasted cheese sandwich, but found that the cheese would melt inside and flow out of the bread before the bread was browned. Multiple attempts yielded a result that was just about edible, but even so, I found the bread to be too dry.

Other people have had great results using similar devices, and I am sure that with time and effort, the technique can be mastered, but as for me, I just cannot be bothered with it. Life is too short.
