Product Description
Workday mornings are a repetitive and harrowing transition from awakening, dressing, and travelling to work. Who has time to prepare a nutritious breakfast. So you end up picking it up at a deli, diner, or greasy take-out - sometimes waiting on line with all the others - and you're still running late. Back to Basics Egg and Muffin Toaster is an alternative.Need toast? You've got it. Want a poached or hard boiled egg? It's yours. And if you want them together in your favorite breakfast sandwich, the Egg&Muffin Toaster also warms your pre-cooked meat. Bingo...ready to eat in about four minutes. It's sort of the drive-thru breakfast without the drive. As a multi-function appliance, the Egg&Muffin Toaster expands the practical uses for this small electric by giving those with busy schedules more than just toast. The Egg&Muffin Toaster delivers in about four minutes a convenient and tasty morning meal that's both familiar and well liked. In addition to being a full-functioning toaster, the Egg&Muffin Toaster can simultaneously: 1) toast the bread, 2) cook an egg (poached or steam-scrambled), and 3) warm a pre-cooked slice of ham or sausage?or any combination of these three functions, in addition to boiling upto four eggs. The Egg&Muffin Toaster features wide toasting slots, an auto shut-off for individual toasting and poaching options, an easy-to-clean control touchpad, and light to dark toaster settings. It also includes a removable crumb tray for easy clean-up and cord storage. The toaster's ?Egg/Toast? function directs cooking of both items simultaneously to complete at the same time.

 THIS MAKES IT A REALLY GOOD MORNING ! October 16, 2005

Breakfast time at our house was usually a bit of a scramble (and I don't just mean the eggs). My fantasy envisioned a trusty maid who would have hot toast, eggs and sausage waiting for us, while we greeted the day with smiles instead of "hurry-hurry" admonitions.
Turns out my fantasy wasn't so far off after all when I found this Back To Basics Egg & Muffin Toaster. This is the coolest electric I've ever seen. Would you believe this mini marvel toasts two slices of bread (or English muffin or croissant), cooks an egg, and warms sausage all at the same time? Well, it does, from a push of the start button to done in four minutes!
Wide toasting slots accommodate the bread of your choice, and it's equipped with an automatic shut-off. It can be used for all three of the functions or simply one (but what's egg without sausage?)
It's sleek and black measuring some 8" high and 15" wide with a detachable crumb tray, indicator light, plus meat warming tray. Not only that, but it's fun to use. Now, kids can get breakfast for me - that, friends, is really a good morning!
A must have for every kitchen a perfect gift for everyone on your list this year! November 9, 2005

I am so in love with this product!! My 13 year old son has been conducting demonstrations in my kitchen. A must have for everyone on your Holiday shopping list. Perfect for a fresh hot breakfast on demand. Took about 4 tries to get the hang of it but we have experienced perfect egg muffins every time. The boiled eggs are just right, if you have family members that each like a different style of boiled egg this is for you. Hard boiled eggs for that chef or cobb salad ready while you assemble the other ingredients. After school snacks and those dinners on the run also covered with this product. Set it up with your choice, poached or boiled, select your bread push the button and by the time you get your dishes and beverage breakfast is ready. Perfect for singles, families with children and your aging parental units. Easy to use, easy to clean, delivers a quality product. Only makes one at a time but not a problem for us as it allows each of us to eat when we are ready in the morning. This is the one item that I will purchase for everyone on my Holiday shopping list this year.......and if I order another one I can make 2 at a time......
Perfect Toaster December 6, 2005

Who wouldn't use this toaster? Man, I wish I had this thing when I was in college. THis thing just made my Christmas shopping a WHOLE LOT easter. "Toasters for EVERYONE!!!" I was skeptical at first. I'm usually a sucker for kitchen gadgets. I fight the urge to order every silly informercial that is being pitched by some dude with an English accent (why are they always English? Do we assume they're smarter or that there is some "euro-secret" we don't know about?). But finally for once, a product has well EXCEEDED my expectations. Take it from someone who has the "Magic-Perfect-Super-Spinning-Peeler-Slicing-Dicing-Rotisserie-Bread-Making-Coffee-Bean-Grinder". Perfect toast, perfect eggs, done (studio audience "oooooooosss" and "aaaaahhhhsss").
Holy crap is this thing cool December 7, 2005

Took it out of the box and cleaned it. Made a egg muffin sandwich perfectly the first time. Then hard boiled 4 eggs perfectly. Made another egg sandwich this morning. How did I survive before this???
Seems the ultimate gadget but it's useful and well thought out October 13, 2005

I was quite impressed when I took this gadget out of the box, and that feeling did'nt change up to and including putting it to use.
The mark of a well thought out product is attention to detail. This unit comes with a measuring cup marked with the amount of water needed for soft, medium and hard, hard boiled eggs and soft and medium poached eggs. For up to 4 hard boiled eggs the instructions say to puncture each egg to prevent exploding due to steam build up in the shell. There's a handy and thoughtful egg piercer on the bottom of the measuring cup for that purpose.
