4 Slot Hot Dog and Bun Toaster

This is a great product that I use often! It's convenient, effective and a counter space savior! I can use it and forget it while going about doing other things in the kitchen due to its timer. When its done, the hot dogs and buns pop up and are ready to assemble and eat! A great convenience that's easily used and easily cleaned once cooled. Thank you!

This thing is fantastic! Turns out the main reason people eat sandwiches more than hot dogs is because hot dogs are less convenient to make. At least, that's how it seems around here, since after getting this people are eating a lot more hot dogs. (No, don't worry, you can get hot dogs that are high quality, all natural, don't have preservatives, etc.) There is a bit of a trick to using it. Since buns tend to get warm first and may burn if you cook them as long as the dog, we set to the middle setting. Run the buns and the dog the first time. After it pops up, take the buns out and plate them, then run the dogs one more cycle. That way you don't burn the buns. They come out fantastic, some of the best cooked dogs we've had. One caveat—we always tend to buy dogs and pre-cooked brats that have a casing on them, not casing-free. We actually haven't tried with casing free, so not sure how it does for those. But all in all, we use this a lot more than we though we would. It's really pretty fantastic.

I live in a state where using the grill in the winter is not an option. This toaster is definitely better than just boiling your hot dogs. It's easy to use but you have to keep a close eye on the buns as they can burn quickly. The toaster is light weight and small enough that it's easy to find a place for storage.

When I saw this product I had to have it. This is the most amazing thing since hot water as far as I am concerned. I got it the day after I ordered it. After reading all the negative reviews I could find here is how I approached using the product. 1) Smokes during first few uses-I turned the knob to 5 and let it perform a burn-in cycle with nothing in it. Instructions say to not operate without at least 1 hotdog and bun. But in my opinion if it can't survive 1 cycle it would need to be returned as POS. Burn-in worked fine and it did smoke like a bingo player at first, then it stopped. Subsequent uses were smoke free with no odor/taste effect on the food. 2) Bun burning along edges-Yes it burned the buns along the edge and was heavier from the top of the toaster down. But after a bit of carbon buildup on the inside it no longer burns the bun and I do cook on number 5. The buns need to be regular sized. I also noticed that most buns, I tried 3 brands, are baked/sliced in such a way that one end is more tapered and I place them into the toaster tapered end up. 3) Hotdog expands in holder and is hard to get out-Yes it does on fat hotdogs. Also over cooking causes the hotdogs to split as I discovered when working out the best cook setting. Skinny ones like Oscar Mayer or Nathans or Hebrew National have no problem. I tried 6 different brands all beef brands including Ball Park and Bar S and some generic brand. The BallPark were the worst case of the bubch but I got them out without too much carnage. Overall they all cooked great at setting of 5. I prefer my hotdogs either hot or cold but not in between. 4) Cheaply made with plastic-It was only $20. However the plastic housing makes it cool to the touch. Key points are it works very well and is easy to clean up. In conclusion, I think my organs are failing from all the hotdogs I've eaten the last couple of weeks. Everyone who sees the toaster has a big inner child smile moment and has to try it. It works as advertised. It's inexpensive and its color matches my coffee maker.

Great product good price easy setup makes Great hotdog and toasted buns

This is a cool looking gadget and I sooooo wanted it to work as well as it looks. I had this idea of a quick lunch, pop in a couple of weenies and buns and voila, instant hot dogs. Plus, I figured for $20, what's to lose? So, I ordered one. It's okay. Nothing terribly bad here. Nothing really good either. Here is the good, the bad and the ugly. Hot dogs; yes! They are easy to warm up! Drop two in, pull down the lever and in 2-3 minutes you have "sort of" heated dawgs. But, I have found after multiple tries, I cannot seem to get them warmed evenly. The ends seem okay (hot) but the middle of the hot dog is not. I suspect if I had not taken them right out of the refrigerator, or maybe left them on the counter for a while to warm up, the result might have been better (more evenly warmed); but, who does that in real life? I figured out that I can push the lever down for a second go at it and the meat sort of gets warmer throughout. So, I give the meat-cooking part of this device a B+. Clean up? The tray at the bottom pulls out easily enough and the juices drop down on it as designed. I have to give that feature the best rating. I give it an "A." Buns? Not so good here. First off, I erred and bought premium buns. Don't do that. They will be too large to fit in the bun-slot. Buy cheap, small (did I say small) buns and they will fit into the bun slots. Now that you have small hot dog buns, will the toaster feature evenly toast those buns? Probably not! At least not in my experience. In fact, more often then not, the edges of the buns were burned. So, I give the bun-toasting feature a grade "C." Looks? This thing is really cute. I have to give it that. Grade "A." Quality of the device? Well, honestly, it is a cheap little toaster. But, I did not expect too much for $20 and I won't be surprised if it fails after a few uses. It is a gimmick after all.

I got this for a game of Dirty Santa and everyone thought it was awesome! I wound up getting it and was pleasantly surprised at how great it works, it made perfect hotdogs. You can adjust how long you want them to cook so you can make it just the way you like them. Get you one!

It doesnt fit all types of buns, and the bun cooks slower then the dog, but my son in law loves it.

Tal como en la foto y super práctica, cumple al 100% mis expectativas

I’m lazy when it comes to preparing breakfast and I was looking for something quick and fulfilling at the same time and saw this cool toaster for hot dogs and tried it ! Gotta say I’m impressed ! Set up was pretty simple , the hot dogs cooked fine ( I’m eating rn as I type ) and it taste great ! Some thing I noticed — so it holds 2 hot dogs and.2 buns but I found 2 buns don’t fit so you’ll have to probably put one at a time ( see the video ) , setting 4 seems to cook just right ! No funny smoke or smells like the disclaimer mentioned —— I usually slice the hot dogs whenever I cook ( fry on a pan or grill ) so the inside cooks and when it came to removing the hot dog. One of them got stuck cuz the wiener expands when it’s cooked and the slice got caught on the hot dog wire holder thing . Not a big deal but something to take note of ! All in all I’m impressed ! This will come in handy in the morning especially since I don’t have time to actually cook something , this is grab and go ! If you’re looking for something QUICK and easy ! Watcha waiting for ! Also love the retro look !!!! My apartment kitchen looks dated and it ads to the retro look fo sure !!

Comes with a US plug therefore needs a step down transformer. That should be more clearly stated.

Super delicioso
