Proctor Silex Sandwich Makers Review

Proctor Silex is a large home appliance manufacturer and concentrate upon making kitchen appliances. They have a wide range of kitchen appliances, starting from can openers to ovens and fryers. Their range is quite extensive and they have the name of making good low cost appliances.

Their sandwich makers however suffer a little and they have only two models that you can choose from. This is probably because sandwich makers are not that popular anyway, and most people prefer to go with the toasters or the sandwich presses. Both these models are reviewed below.

25408 two sandwich toaster

This is their traditional sandwich maker and you get two sandwiches that are cut down the middle, diagonally into four. It is a very simple sandwich maker and does its job. You have light indicators that let you know when it has finished and that's about it. The only thing special about this is that it is cheap. At just around $19 it is one of the cheapest in the market. Proctor Silex however does not manufacture this model regularly, and you will very often find that they are out of stock of their sandwich maker.

25401 two sandwich toaster

This model is ditto the previous one except that it does not come with the sealing ability of the previous one. The sandwich is not sealed which means that you can actually toast your bread with the filling inside it and then add the cheese after taking the sandwich out. This model is actually better from that stand point, plus there is always the small niggle with the previous one about the filling spilling outside when you press the upper lid down. You do not have that trouble here, and it is also very easy to clean. Considering that it costs only $1 more than the 25408 this is actually a better buy, unless you particularly want sealed sandwiches.
