Now making hot dogs is a easy as making toast! Drop two hot dogs and two buns in the approprate slots, adjust the timing knob and press the lever down. When the hot dogs are done, they pop up just like toast. It’s as simple as 1-2-3. Great for a quick snack while watching a movie or sports event on TV or for an after school snack. It's even easy enough for the kids to make their own. Who doens't love hot dogs - an American Favorite anytime.

Comments about Nostalgia Electrics Hot Dog Toaster:

Even the smallest hot dogs (in diameter) swell up to the point where they are next to impossible to get out of their "wire basket". The buns burn even when set on the lowest setting. Good idea but doesn't work real well. Very disappointed. Had hoped for more.

This is fun.

Comments about Nostalgia Electrics Hot Dog Toaster:

I bought this to put in our kitchen at work. The guys in the shop all laughed at me. They aren't laughing anymore. They love the dogs that come out of this little machine. We don't care too much for the bun toaster. It gets just the very edges black and the rest not toasted so much. But it does great on the dogs.

My husband works odd hours and likes to forage for his late-night meals. The hot dog toaster is perfect for his meals and for me when I want a quick hot meal.

A fun product, makes good hot dogs and toasted buns. You have to find the right brand of hot dogs to use or they will get stuck in the toaster.

Double Pump

Pros:

Good Value

Cons:

Heating Element

Best Uses:

Quick Convenient Snack, Save dishes

Bottom Line:

Comments about Nostalgia Electrics Hot Dog Toaster:

The first time you push down the lever, the buns get toasted, but the hot dogs need a double push for them to get cooked enough. Other than that, works pretty good.
