Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Santa Fe Quesadilla Maker
Customer Review: Impossible to clean
Summary: 1 Stars
This product has a SERIOUS flaw, in that there is a small gap between the heating plate and the base of the unit that extends nearly the entire circumference of the unit. What does this mean? Unless you are VERY careful when putting in the filling, it will drip over the heating plate and into the space and down into the base of the unit. I spent 20 minutes trying to clean it, and I finally unscrewed the unit to get the filling out of the base. This was the only way to clean the unit, otherwise it would have been a breeding ground for creepy-crawlees. Anyway, this product is virtually useless, unless you are perfect in adding filling. It's not really worth the chance, in my opinion.Customer Review: Quick and easy food
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this quesadilla maker for my wife for X-Mas. She just loves it. You can make a quick and easy meal for yourself in as little as 6 minutes with this baby. The first meal we made was a bean, cheese and onion quesadilla and it was a golden brown in less than 5 minutes. Easy cleanup as well. Do NOT fill product too full, as it will melt out everywhere creating one helluva mess if you are not careful. In addition, there was no instruction manual with recipe suggestions in our box, so I called and emailed the manufacturer and still haven't heard back. All I want is the recipe book for some new creative ideas.
Fast shipping and quick processing as well.
Customer Review: 5 stars in the beginning, but 1 now...
Summary: 3 Stars
I love quesadillas. I love consuming quesadillas. When I was given this 2.5 years ago as a Christmas gift, I thought "huh?" but came to love it immediately upon the first use. Unfortunately, stuff tends to leak out the sides and cleaning is a drag - especially the grooves on the outside edge. I think that I am definitely overfilling as I need a small screwdriver to snap the latch open once I have closed it. Lastly, the nonstick surface is starting to wear off.
In closing, let me state that it really is a nice appliance -simple to use and effective. Given the price, you really can't go wrong even when it degrades. Cleaning is truly the only drawback.
Customer Review: A Quesadilla Maker? Why?
Summary: 2 Stars
A Quesadilla Maker? I can't imagine why. Another specialized item to fill the kitchen cabinets to eventually meet the fate of your Presto "Hot Dogger" in the givaway pile or yard sale? Can you imagine the cleanup of a generously stuffed quesadilla once squashed in this contraption?
The BEST Quesadillas can be made in an oven/toaster oven at 350 degrees. For cripsy, place it on alluminum foil on cookie sheet and heat until cheese melts(as an option, flip after 5 minutes for even cooking). For soft, place another sheet of foil over the quesadilla and cook until cheese melts. Cleanup is simply, throw away the alluminum foil!
Customer Review: Fragile on the lid
Summary: 3 Stars
Well I put a whole on the top of the lid while using it for the first time. You have to push down on the rubber area so you can lock it in the front. If you push to hard the plastic area under the red rubber will give in. The first Quesadilla the I made I over filled slightly so that one made a mess. The others that were made came out better. Well worth the $18 that I paid for it. I would have given this 4 stars if it had not broke on the first try. It is worthy of 3.5 stars but I can not give a half a star on this rating system.
I will edit my review to let you all know how Salton handel's the warranty issue once I contact them.
