[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got this and have already used it several times. It makes a quesadilla in just minutes. However if you use more than just cheese you will have to cut the ingredients into minute pieces and even still the lid won't close completely. It still worked and made tasty snacks. The tortilla gets nice and brown on bottom more than the top. I suggest leaving about 1 inch around the edge of the tortilla for room for the ingredients to spread while cooking. Love the jalapeno handle!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this quesadilla maker because I love Quesadillas but I am not good at making them in a skillet or anything like that. I wasn't really sure, if having one of these would make it more easier, or if it would be complicated as some appliances are. This without a doubt, has to be one of the easiest kitchen appliances ever to operate.
Literally, I chopped up some chicken breast and cooked them in a skillet (although for future reference, I now know to shred the chicken instead of using chunks or cubes of chicken breast), then I sauteed some fresh chopped onions and bell peppers, plugged in the Quesadilla maker and waited for the light to tell me it was ready, then... I laid one tortilla on the bottom plate of the quesadilla maker, topped it with chicken, onions, bell pepper and shredded cheese, then placed the other tortilla on top of that, closed the lid, let it cook for like 4-5 minutes and then it was done and was perfectly cooked.
When it was finished, I used tongs to grip the edge of the quesadilla and pull it onto my plate. Then I used a pizza cutter to cut it into triangles. After that, all I had to do was sit and enjoy it.
The only issue I had with this was that it says not to unplug it unless the green light is off, but the green light kept coming back on frequently enough that I had trouble catching it when the light was off. Other than that, this is seriously one if the easiest appliances to use and I am so happy that I can now enjoy quesadillas any time I want.
Another thing that I absolutely love about this is that when you are not using it, it stands upright for easy and more compact storage. I am always needing things that do not take up much space in my kitchen; so this is definitely a blessing. I would definitely reccomend this to anyone I know.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This quesadilla maker suits my needs! I have limited space in the kitchen so I need my equipment to be multi-functional. I use this quesadilla maker for multiple things - quesadilla, heating up smaller tacos and also making crepes, which are popular in this house! Easy to use and clean.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super easy to use ! Makes them so much faster to make ! Takes up minimal space on the countertop and when storing it since it is able to store on the side. It is also really easy to clean, no issues whatsoever!
The only downfall is that the latch to close the quesadilla maker is flimsy and seems like it would be easy to break.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a decent quesadilla maker, looks nice. It is a bright & shiny red on the exterior. You can store it upright as a space saving measure. The non-stick surface works well. It makes wedge marks on the tortilla, so the food looks as though it was made in restaurant. Heats up super fast and cooks evenly. The latch piece is made of plastic and pops off easily would be my only criticism.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this product. It is a space saver. It cooks any kind of quesadilla. I have cooked chicken and pizza. They came out great. It was easy to use even though no instructions came with it. Also, it saved cooking time. I know this will be a product that is use frequently.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fun little kitchen gadget makes wonderful quesadillas! I love that’s it’s easy to clean up afterwards with a paper towel. It’s simple and has a green light to tell you when the quesadilla is done, similar to a waffle machine? Although you could make these on the stove top, it’s nice to get designated cutting lines and cooks so much quicker!
