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.
Amazingly simple...amazingly good I was tired of paying $4 plus for a breakfast in the morning made with low quality meat and eggs. I purchased this product and I could not be happier with my purchase. For starters, it is incredibly easy to operate. Pour the water into the cup, add your egg, add a piece of meat, place the top on, and then press down. It couldn't be any easier. You can even add your bread and do it all in one step. Once you press start you can just walk away and in only a few minutes everything is done and ready for assembly.
The egg is always cooked perfectly, the meat is always hot, and the bread is heated to just the right amount. I challenge anyone to find a better machine to make an egg sandwich. Cleaning is also easy, just throw everything into the dishwasher.
The Blender Express becomes even more useful with the addition of two travel mugs. Heavy-duty plastic mug insulates contents and lid flips up for easy sipping. Holds 24 ounces and fits into most cup holders. Includes two mugs with a black lid and a white lid.
Lids and cups I read from some one elses experience that the lids didn't fit the cup for sipping correctly. This does happen.. BUT ONLY IF you switch the lids with mug that came with the blender. The Gray lids go on the lighter gray cup and the black lid goes on the darker gray. Mark with Sharpie and things should fit perfectly right. I like this little set up... I wish I had a BIGGER yet cup, this holds 20 ounces, but this is good. It is nice and fast for working class run out the door types!
One more thing, if I tighten it to tight, I might not get it apart later.. so I loosen the lid a bit when finished drinking and planning on leaving it in the car all day!
Otherwise... I like this little set-up! I don't have to wash one cup everyday either, I can miss a day!

A bad choice After trying another personal blender and having some minor issues, I thought I'd try a new brand, and picked this one up. The end assessment: as cheap as it is, it's not worth your money. I highly recommend you pick a different brand.
Pros:
1) When I made shakes in it with crushed ice, it crushed the ice fairly well. (But see #1 below)
Cons:
1) Flimsy materials: I have only had this blender for *2 months,* and already the plastic cup is cracking from the pressure of blending ice in it. These small hairline cracks are now seeping beads of liquid out of them. Soon they'll get larger and the blender will be completely unusable. A blender that can't handle ice shouldn'tbe called a blender.
2) Heavy: The base is surprisingly heavy and wide in circumference; it would not make for a light and easy travel blender if you are looking for something to take on trips.
3) Stupidly designed: The design is just nonsensical. Though not described in the product description or in most of these reviews, the way this product works is that you have to fill the blender's mug as you would fill any normal cup, then put on the top (which contains the blender wheel), and then TURN THE MUG UPSIDE DOWN to attach it to the blender. Naturally, this can cause any number of mishaps--if the seal isn't quite tight enough, you and the blender are going to get covered in whatever you're blending. Or, it could just fall off if you turn it over and it's not tight enough. Plus, after blending, when you turn the cup back upright to actually open it and drink your concoction, a great majority of your mix sticks to the wheel on the top. This means you lose a good portion of your drink.
4) Can't add in ingredients once you close it: Finally, this design doesn't allow you to easily or non-messily add extra ingredients in midway. So for example, if you want to blend ice and liquid first, and then add fruit or whatever, it's a problem in a way it wouldn't be for normally upright blenders.

Loved it; but wish it lasted longer I got one as a gift, and wondered if I'd ever use it. I ended up using it every morning for my mix of coffee, cocoa, milk, vanilla, etc., and loved it. After about a year the motor seized up, and I threw it out. I bought another one, and after six months or so, it started balking. I was able to correct that problem when I realized the heated bottom surface was flexing upwards slightly and contacting the blender blades, which I then bent up a bit using pliers. That bought me another month, and then one of the little plastic knobs that held the spigot-handle broke off, so the only way I could use the spigot was by removing the handle and raising the plunger with pliers.
I WISH THIS PRODUCT WERE BETTER MADE, OR THAT ANOTHER MANUFACTURER WOULD SEE THE OPPORTUNITY HERE!!!

defective+poor warrantee service After using the machine a couple dozen times, it started making a lot of (extra) noise and smelled of burning wire insulation. Back to Basics has farmed out their warranty repairs, and that company, Focus Electric of West Bend, WI, informed me they are backed up with work (no response to their receipt of the item two weeks ago).

Gift From God Ok so I decided to purchase this just off comparison. For some reason the reviews on this toaster is split, good and bad while its 2 slice counter part has amazingly good ratings. Well now that I've used this 4 slice version I dont understand why the ratings are split. First of all the toaster is stylish so even though some people think its big, I think it looks great on my counter and honestly it turned out smaller than I figured it would be for a 4 slice toaster. It so far fits everything i put into it which has mainly been sara lee bread and bagels (which i consider sara lee bagel to be pretty big). It toast completely evenly and leaves the bread moist at the same time with the darkness setting about halfway (way better than the toaster ovens I've been using that leave the bread burnt and dry). The poached eggs come out great but i havent tried boiling eggs yet. There also is a plastic smell when it heats up but its nothing that is unbearable. Just smells kinda like something is heating up. All this said, don't hesitate to buy this. Thank me later.

Makes great smoothies, bad hardware I have had this product for three months now. My first time making a smoothie, the pour spout leaked! I had read other reviews with this same problem, but wasn't concerned. I was surprised that it did leak the first time however. The option to use the spout is no longer available to me, so I have switched to using the closed cap. I would expect hardware on a product to last a tad longer than the first use, however this doesn't take away from the great smoothies it produces. All in all, I'm not sure I would recommend this exact model to everyone, but at the price, I think it is a good choice.
Healthier popcorn -- the Back to Basics Microwave Popcorn Popper starts healthy by requiring no oil and stays healthy by allowing for control of added flavorings. The Microwave Popcorn Bowl uses regular popcorn seeds, eliminating the packaging costs of microwave popcorn in a bag
A Popcorn Lovers Must-Have I wasn't quite sure if I'd like this microwave corn popper. I was looking at a different brand I thought I preferred, but I choose this one because of the super saver shipping.
I'm glad I got this one. I really like it! I like the design, the ease of use and it's easy to keep clean.
I bought 2, one for home and one for work! I love popped corn as a snack, it's healthy and filling. With this mircrowave corn popper, I save money by just using regular popcorn kernels -- any brand. And I have more control over the salt and oil content. I can leave out salt and oil all together if I choose.
I recommend this Back to Basics PC17591 Microwave Popcorn Popper!! If you love Popcorn... you won't be disappointed... it's up to you how to fix it -- oil, no oil, salt, no salt, seasonings............ get creative and enjoy!
