_"Credit where credit is due"_ Exactly this, I wish more people would give a little shout out to a genuinely good product because of a great personal experience whether sponsored or not, especially with a newer product most have not seen yet.
You could review literally anything and it would be worth watching. I mean i have zero intentions of raising chickens but i thoroughly enjoyed that video lol.
@@kymcopyriot9776 Now you've really confused me. I thought we Kansans were in Oz!!! They actually called it the "Land of Ahhs" on our vehicle license plates about 30 years ago.
Thank you for this review. I have thrown away four toasted sandwich makers because the non stick became too difficult to clean and you cant soak a mains powered device. The cost of electrical or gas power is ridiculous in the uk today so i will look out for one of these. Your reviews are always well considered and well appreciated. Your wife is definitely a keeper for buying these 🙂
That's really cool. Reminds me of the gourmet Sandwich grills we used at Panera Bread when I worked there. They had (super expensive) giant presses that had a built in microwave to simultaneously warm the inside extra quickly.
Part of me wants this but the other part is screaming, "Just use that nice skillet Mom got you for Christmas" then the rest of me is left hungry and confused 😆
What the he'll is this voodoo magic? Perfect cheese toastie in the microwave! This is definitely alien technology, I thank you good sir for bringing this important development to my attention!
Amazon was carrying a Westinghouse model similar, for $27.99. I just bought the next to last one. Hoping my son will expand his cooking skills, as right now his only sandwich repertoire is peanut butter. It is limited to an 800 watt micro, and ours is 1000, but I figure it can be set on 80% power and should work. If not, I have lost more for less potential benefit.
High school. Sheesh I always pictured them being about 6. I guess its been a bit since I've heard them interrupt one of these. My son hits a year old next week.
I was waiting for a coupon code or some sort of ad, but thank you for just a normal product review. Also just watched this on my phone so I can't wait for the targeted ads because of how many times you mentioned a cheese toasty. Thank you.
This was interesting, but you CAN'T make a grilled cheese sandwich in a microwave. No matter what! It's IMPOSSIBLE to toast bread in a microwave - a microwave RUINS bread!
It actually is a compelling video title. The Easy Eggwich microwave egg cooker is one of the best purchases I've ever made. So, yeah, there can be some real gems out there for microwave cookin'.
Surprise #1: "We have a kid in high school". I didn't think you and your wife were old enough to have children that old! Surprise #2: This MicroMunchy thingy really works. Most of the stuff that pops up on social media is crap. Nice to see something that actually does what it claims it will do. Definitely not a waste of video time. Don't apologize Pete! And thanks for the link. I'll bite!! UPDATE...it appears they only ship to AUS and NZ. I sent a webmail asking if they will ship to the USA. UPDATED UPDATE...shipping to USA will start in a few weeks!!!
@@onionwife8507 That makes more sense. Middle school (grades 6-8) would start 11-12 y.o. High school in the USA (grades 9-12) would start 14-15 y.o. Thanks for clarifying that! I thought you and Pete had stumbled onto some eternal youth water in AUS!!!
0:29 High school?! When did that happen? Woah. That's a definite reality check on how long I've been hanging around your channel, Pete. They were little grommets not too long ago.
I tell ya what, this thing looks wicked! 4 kids In the house, 5 Inc me. I'd say my admiration and bewilderment by this product matches your own. NICE!!!!
Reading the comments I think I'm in the same boat as everyone else here. You make a video and we'll be watching. Also I also really love grilled cheese sandwiches (What they call it in the States), so it's a win-win for me. *Edit* Just tried to buy one and it's only Australia and New Zealand shipping. 😥
Thanks for the review! I love cheese toasties (or grilled cheese as we genrally call them here in the States), and I am definately gonna look into finding one of these. It'd be great for my work lunches!
0:15 Just sayin', I love toasted sandwiches. Done in a frying pan. Butter on the outside. Tomato, cheese, and whatever else inside. If this works, I'm buying one.
This looks like something I could use, I work in a building where many things are limited...even cell phones. Can't help but wonder if there's some leaching that could happen from the materials? Just a thought, it might be fine.
5 billion dollars spent on construction of CERN's Large Hadron Collider resulted in discovery of the Higgs boson and also this microwave sandwich technology. The Nobel prize was awarded.
A friend got one of these the other day as he heard someone on some ABC news show at night talking about them. These ones were $15 from Kmart and for that money he is satisfied.
Great review… agree totally. My parter is caeliac (totally gluten free) and we use this when travelling - makes life simple… and has great results for toasted egg, bacon, cheese etc… worth it!
I love this thing i use it in the microwave in my truck i cook bacon and thin steak and chicken in it as well.. the airfryer is awesome for cooking in the middle of nowhere but this thing makes shit easy..
In the U.S., these are sold as “microwave grilled cheese maker” or “panini press.” With all due respect to Mr. Colligan, these “microwave gilling” devices will decrease the lifespan of the magnetron. The upper and lower plates, although PTFE coated, do contain either a thin sheet of aluminum or a polymer impregnated with powdered aluminum (sometimes referred to as an aluminum-polymer matrix). The aluminum, as with all metals, reflects a considerable proportion of radio waves, and thus the electromagnetic energy, back to the originating source; which, for microwave ovens, is the magnetron. Use of these types of devices is counter indicated by all microwave manufacturers, and may invalidate the warranty. Other products which are negligently marked include in-tank toilet bowl cleansing tablets (which damage polymer gaskets and o-rings within the toilet tank), and flushable wipes (which do not dissolve, and clog mainline sewer pipes, as well as municipal sewers).
So sad to see Pete fall into the clutches of Big Cheese Toasty... nah, that was cool. Learned that cheese toasty is 'strayan for 'murican grilled cheese!
so...does it work for humble pie or not... Not "pushing the friendship"! I came for the knife related stuff....stayed for the awkward humor... Here's my secret Cap: I don't even eat cheese toasties!
Meh. Creameries like Tillamook in Oregon make some awesome cheeses. Just don’t know how they all got stuck on the orange cheddars. You can buy “white cheddar” but they charge you extra for that.
My wife got me one of these for Christmas and said......what were your thinking and it's been in the drawer under the stove ever since. Can't believe one of the knive TH-camrs I follow has made me have pull it out and have I crack, well I'll be buggered.
My favourite sandwiches that mum would make for me when I was a schoolkid...back in the old days... Curried egg Egg and lettuce Vegemite and cheese Ham, cheese and tomato but only in Winter because in summer the ham would go off too quick. It would last until little lunch though.

Have no doubts, this is the best knife channel on the internet!😀
Cheese toasties do not diminish this fact. Mmmm.....
Personally, I find a microwave toastie maker extremely tantalising.
@My Dixie Wrecked🔨 It was gentle sarcasm... I meant that he makes the channel better by not taking knives nor himself too seriously.
Knife channel? Lol I love this dude
What the heck are we going to cut in half with our knives if we don't make a sandwich first?
I do like the fact that your kid has a toasted sandwich maker as his edc. Great work, Pete!
@My Dixie Wrecked🔨 yes, I too talk about plants at a car convention.
The graph of times I’ve heard the phrase “cheese toasty” in my life just hockey sticked
You could review literally anything and it would be worth watching. I mean i have zero intentions of raising chickens but i thoroughly enjoyed that video lol.
I have zero intention of buying Pocket knives, but I'm still addicted to the channel.
To echo the sentiments of others, I will watch literally anything you review. Brick dating sites? Sure, why not.
Thanks for sharing Pete.
@mydixiewrecked4582 If this is simping I'm ok with that
2:20 UNSOLICITED ADVICE: if you flip halfway through cooking time you'll probably get a more even scorch! Looks good btw, think I might pick one up.
That is exactly what is recommended by the manufacturer!
😉
I'm going to start calling grilled cheese, cheese toasties from now on, love it.
That’s what we call them here in Aus
Yep. Standard Oz terminology.
Old US term is grilled cheese. New, fancy US term is panini.
@@kymcopyriot9776 Now you've really confused me. I thought we Kansans were in Oz!!! They actually called it the "Land of Ahhs" on our vehicle license plates about 30 years ago.
This interests me more than a new knife right now, toasted sandwiches kick ass and making them in a microwave would be fantastic.
Australia always gotta one up us with cool names like “cheese toasty”
@My Dixie Wrecked🔨 ahh.. fair dinkum

How many times can a cheese toasty cut 10mm sisal rope before it no longer cleanly slices a held sheet of copier paper?

I never thought I needed this in my life until I saw this review on a knife channel.
Ha, great video! Thanks for always keeping us on our toes.
High school. Sheesh I always pictured them being about 6. I guess its been a bit since I've heard them interrupt one of these. My son hits a year old next week.
I'm going to mention that it is possible to purchase duck fat in a spray can. It'll take a cheese toasty to another level entirely.
🤯🤯🤯!!
What a coincidence, I had grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup for dinner tonight.
YUM!

NEVER stop making these types of videos.
Got to love a good grilled cheese sandwich. One of my favorites. I see a world of possibilities with the "Cheese Toasty" maker. Thanks, and enjoy.

For reference in Australia kids start high school at age 12. I think it’s different in the states?
Usually 13 or 14 in USA

As a dad I am 100% sold on this. I am also 100% sold on calling them cheese toasties.
I had no idea. Thanks for sharing.

I’ll click on any video you post for us Pete. I’ve been enjoying your channel for a long time now. 👍🏻
This is the only channel I just thumbs up blindly before watching the video.
Note the K390 chefs knife.

Fanfrickintastic! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks mate, just ordered two of them.
Seems cool, but I drank every time you said “cheese toasty” and now I’m dead.

Just bought one at Savers thrift shop for $2.99 on spec.
Can't wait to try it!

I want one. In the US, we call them grilled or toasted cheese sandwiches.
5 billion dollars spent on construction of CERN's Large Hadron Collider resulted in discovery of the Higgs boson and also this microwave sandwich technology. The Nobel prize was awarded.
To make the toast golden brown you need around 180°C and water vapors at 100°C. So the trick must be in the black tiles of the device.
This is second best video on your channel
In the time I watched this video, I could have prepared a cheese toasty... or a grilled cheese as we Yanks like to call them.
I'm going to buy a microwave just to make cheese toasties now
Cheese toastie? I love the way Australians talk.
A friend got one of these the other day as he heard someone on some ABC news show at night talking about them. These ones were $15 from Kmart and for that money he is satisfied.
Damm - now I feel like a cheese toasty!
How does it feel?
I was "the other child" growing up, too.
Great review… agree totally. My parter is caeliac (totally gluten free) and we use this when travelling - makes life simple… and has great results for toasted egg, bacon, cheese etc… worth it!
Just today a John in the office decided to use one of these to toast up a cheddar and canned herring sandwich. Stunk up the whole building.
ARHhhh now you two of my weaknesses 💕
Cheese toastie is Australian for grilled cheese sandwich for those who don't speak the language

I'd buy that now I've seen it in action.cheers mate
Wait til he finds out about the microwave bacon cookers...
How does anything in the microwave for 4 min survive becoming molten lava or a super villain
Thank you for sharing! I WAS wondering if those were worth it.
Bit expensive but this would be a really nice gift for someone. Appreciate it
Wish this would ship to Canada. This is exactly what I need for working o. The road.
Pete, it is clear that the robot overlords have taken you.
Great tip. Will buy.
We have K-Mart selling them for $15 each. Amazon has them for $70+ It pays to scope it out on line if you're interested in buying one
So sad to see Pete fall into the clutches of Big Cheese Toasty... nah, that was cool. Learned that cheese toasty is 'strayan for 'murican grilled cheese!
so...does it work for humble pie or not...

Here's my secret Cap: I don't even eat cheese toasties!
These are amazing ❤
Seems like we could use an onion update.
For those of you from North America who are confused... They don’t use orange dye in their cheeses in Australia. Their cheddar is all white.
yellow!! :)
And made with milk. Not chemicals in a laboratory.
Meh. Creameries like Tillamook in Oregon make some awesome cheeses. Just don’t know how they all got stuck on the orange cheddars. You can buy “white cheddar” but they charge you extra for that.
Pete is waffling again
Ofc you can only get them in AU/NZ... no international cheese toasty goodness.

Those tomatoes....sheez. They have to be home grown.
Actually looks pretty good
Just bought one of these... i didn't think it would work but so happy i was wrong.
Got it from kmart for $10
By the time I finished this video, I could have had a cheese toastie ready to go
Thats pretty nifty
Off to get one, thanks mate 😄
Have a similar one at work. Pretty great.
Ya but how's the edge retention?
Damn Pete your wife’s a genius! I really want one now lol
Mmmmmm…I’m hungry now!!!!
Not an awful idea at all. Munch on dude.
Pretty sure it's the same technology as a hotpocket sleeve. Captures the microwaves and radiates them as infrared
I’m disappointed that you didn’t use the Endela to cut the sandwich. 😄
Looks promising...what happens if you mix Parmesan with the butter on the outside?
$50😮, got one today at Kmart for $15 (in Australia).
How come you don't butter the outside like the instructions say?
How many sisal ropes did it toast?
Hell. Yes.
