Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Santa Fe Quesadilla Maker
Customer Review: Should have known better...
Summary: 2 Stars
...when we saw the display at Target had a broken latch. We've had ours for less than a year and the latch broke a little over 4 weeks after we bought it. Past the point of return.
I paid full retail price. While I wouldn't say it's worth the full retail price, at the sale price listed here on Amazon, it's worth giving it a try.
I have a 3 year old son who refuses to eat meat. But, diced up nice and small and hidden in a quesadilla with cheese and veggies, he'll eat anything. This is a handy little appliance with kids, but be wary - it runs very hot! My husband burned himself twice - once with escaping steam and once on the cover itself.
This appliance is a space-hog and hard to store when not in use, but for $15, it's worth trying out - at least for one party!
Customer Review: Message is for Shelly
Summary: 5 Stars
Shelly, I have one of these and have never had a problem with mine opening up. Sounds like you may have a defective product, maybe you should have it exchanged.
BTW I love my quesadilla maker.
It is a shame you can only make one batch at a time. What I do sometimes is cut the quesadillas up with a pizza cutter then put them in the oven on low to keep warm. I made some for a Super Bowl party and they were a huge hit! I also bring my quesadilla maker over to a friend's house and we make a bunch for our families to eat, the kids love them.
I've not made any desserts with mine yet, but I'd say if you use some sort of apple filling in between a couple of tortillas then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and maybe a little vanilla ice cream it would be very tasty.
Customer Review: I love Quesadillas
Summary: 4 Stars
Since I have purchased this Quesadilla Maker (6-7 months ago), I truly have to say that my household uses this thing atleast once a week. My roommate doesn't cook much so this is the easiest thing for her to make. Also, whenever i have a small gathering of people over, they always make a special request for Quesadillas. It's an instant party each and everytime, plus it's easy to use and easy to clean. The only gripe that I have about it is that there is no On and Off button/switch. So whenever you use it, it comes on automatically when you plug it in. That seems a bit dangerous to me, but that is it's only flaw. Still I would have to recommend it, especially to those that wastes money buying ...quesadillas. Why pay someone else, when you can do it yourself!
Customer Review: Much More than Quesadillas!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I thought this looked clever, and it works fine for quesadillas, but it's actually a fantastic all-purpose appliance. You can cook waffle dough in it, batters, biscuits - whether homemade or bought, scrambled eggs, muffin doughs, bar cookies, croquettes made with leftovers and eggs - it really works sensationally well for a huge variety of things. I can't eat wheat, but I bet bread dough would make great Indian naan bread. I haven't tried making fritters (like grated vegetables in batter) but I am certain it will do a fine job. It's inexpensive and extremely useful. It's also very quick - I can make good waffle-pancakes in under 8 minutes where it takes my waffle iron 12. I recommend this to everyone - and experiment with even more possibilities!Customer Review: Very versatile!
Summary: 4 Stars
We received this as a gift, and have made great use of it. It is very easy to use: just put a tortilla on the bottom, scoop some filling (ground beef, chicken, cheese, vegetables, etc.) into the pockets, put a tortilla on top, and close the lid! It makes perfect, light-golden-brown quesadillas every time. The triangular quesadilla sections are easy to break apart and remain sealed (i.e., they don't leak the filling).We have found that it is able to make quesadillas more than fast enough to keep up with the consumption requirements of a family of four (unlike a typical waffle iron, where you are always waiting for the next one). Leftovers are great to snack on or put in a school lunch.
It is extremely easy to keep clean and is very durable.
