- Everything is... Oh my gosh! Oh it's on fire. (trumpet announcement) (door slams) Hello. We are just off to the shops because today we are testing
out a kitchen gadget. A grilled cheese toaster. Oh yes. This thing sounds insane. I am really, really excited to try it out. Who does not love a grilled cheese? I was gonna walk to
the shop with the dogs, but it's raining. Yep, I was gonna tie the
dogs outside the shop and go on in and get my stuff, but no we are taking the vehicle. So let's go shopping. (upbeat jazz music) The problem I've got, is that
this is normal sliced bread and I don't know how big
the gaps are in the toaster. So I've got some decent stuff
that I can slice to size. ♪And now it tears me to the bone. ♪ ♪ How can I get you alone? ♪ Alright a successful forage to the shops, and this is it my friends. The Nostalgia Grilled Cheese... I'm on the French side. (laughs) Although... (speaking in French). Amazing. Create the perfect hot and melted, toasted cheese sandwich with no mess. Makes two grilled cheese
sandwiches at a time. Two toasting baskets
keep sandwiches in place. Basically it's a toaster
where they've changed the actual top bit to have like... wow! Imagine in your head, you
know they've got those fryers that you get, which I
absolutely hate the smell of. We got rid of ours, it just
got so dirty all the time. It's like that merged with a toaster. Fryer. Toaster. Boom. Yeah. But before we
open it and try it out, let's remind ourselves
what a grilled cheese is by making one, because
basically I'm starving. I'm actually really hungry right now. (bright music ) (stove igniting) (cheese sizzling) (groans) You see, this is what I don't
think the toaster is gonna do. That is a good thing, and you guys know how much I
hate cheese when it's cold. This is hot, gooey, oozy.
Are we gonna miss that? (laughing) (delighted groan) It tastes so Gouda. Alright a little patron shout
out whilst I finish this off. (delighted groan) So good. I'm leaving one half so I
can compare in just a jiffy. I normally have it with tomato
soup and stuff like that. Let's test out this toaster. Spoiler alert, I need to use
my electrical extension cable because the socket thing
won't reach that far. (rattling) That'll do. Alright, so let's have a look. It's got a tamper seal. Look at that. That's awesome. I like the... I know you put bread in it but I like the sort of comical
animation-y, toasty logo. (scoffs) It's an American socket. I think from my many trips to America, somewhere I will have a
conversion thing for this. (whimpers) Anyhow, these are the baskets
which effectively change this from being an American toaster to being the grilled cheese toaster. Look we can put our bread in there, we clamp it together and
then it's gonna sit in there. Metal and toasters don't
really go together, kind of like with knives and stuff, so you have these safety handles. I'm scared of that, but I'm more concerned right now with finding the conversion socket, so I'll try and find that. I've looked all downstairs
and I can't find it. Oh my gosh. (drawers opening) Yes! There we go. We found it mate. We're good. No! (scoffs) No! This is the wrong way around. Ooh, could this do it? I think it will, you know, but I don't know if it's gonna
have enough "oomph" in it, you know? Technical term. I don't know. I don't
even know what this is. Three amp. I wish I studied harder at
school about electrics and stuff. Do you know what, I don't
feel like dying today. So I'm gonna go back to the shop and buy one of those
conversion things that you get in most airports and they've got them in most supermarkets too. (upbeat jazz music) Got it. Alright, we're back. We're back. I love Back to the Future. I feel like Doc Brown right
now, on the clock tower. (grunts) Okay. Okay, we're good to go mate. "Cancel, preheat, defrost." "Melt zone." (laughs) It's just a toaster and they've just changed the names on it. "Read this before use. "This unit has a heating element "and during the first use
it may appear to smoke." Cigars, pipes? "For a short period of time this will stop "and does not indicate a defect or hazard. "Remove this label prior to use," so that no one else needs
to get worried about it. That is incredibly light. I'm actually a little
bit worried about this. "Preheat the toaster by pressing
down on the control lever, "then pressing the preheat button." So we go like that, and
then press "preheat." Okay. "When done preheating, the
control lever will pop up. "Insert your prepared sandwich
into the toasting basket." Which I assume will be red hot. "Then place the toasting
basket into the toasting slot. "Depending on your preferred
level of done-ness, "adjust the toasting dial
to melt with the melt zone." I'm actually really worried
that the cheese is gonna just fall out. I mean, we've got our
drip collection tray, but that's just a crumb tray
from a standard toaster. Oh crumbs. The baskets are too
small to carry the slices if I actually cut up this
really nice, rustic loaf so I'm gonna have to revert
back to the slices I used for the other grilled cheese. You know what, it's got two compartments, so let's do two sandwiches. (bright music) Just like before, some cheddar cheese. That's the wrong side. (laughs) Turn it over. Turn it over. Cheese. Edam. I don't give Edam. Cheese. Cheese. We're ready. (metal rattling) Alright. Safety first. I'm gonna turn this on at the
mains at the wall in a minute but this is my botch set up. Alright, I'm gonna turn it on at the wall. And nothing has lit up yet. So, the baskets are in, we press down. Oh look! The cancel light is lit up. I'm pressing the preheat button. Oh my gosh, look at this. Wow, that thing is bright. And it stinks, that smoke
smell is really going off now. This feels really unsafe, Alright, "the control lever will pop up. "Insert your sandwich
into the toasting basket." Now that is what scares me. I'm going for a melt
zone of three point five if you're interested folks. Which is exactly half,
it goes up to seven, (laughs) which is a bit random. Come on, guys. (metal creaks) (surprised gasps) You can't hear it too
well, it's crackling. Oh it stinks. I don't trust myself so I'm
gonna get a board, hang on. Oh, I'm scared to touch these. Okay that's not so bad. (groans) Oh no it's cooking on my thing. Okay, okay. Let me clamp it. Oh wow! (surprised grunt) (sizzling cheese)
(metal creaking) In. Oh my gosh. And now down. (sizzling) Can you see that? That is
actually smoking pretty badly. It's like having a cigarette. Oh wow. I am really concerned by this. Oh my gosh, that is so smoky. Look at that. Look how smoky that is. I've actually taken the
battery out of my smoke alarm. Just in case you're wondering. The heck is going on? (smoke billowing) Everything is... oh my gosh! Ugh, cancel. Oh it's on fire. It's actually on fire, oh my gosh. (sizzling) Look how smoke... that is insane. Wow. Normal grilled cheese sandwich. (stifled laugh) Oh wow. (laughs) Got an amazing melt on
it though, look at that. I'm trying to find
positives right now guys. (toast crunching) (scoffs) I've opened every door and window, so we're gonna get this smoke out. Hopefully this shows you how smoky it is. I'm not deterred. We're gonna try it one more
time, but a lot less cheese. Literally, a very fine layer. I'm gonna really flatten it as well. I want it to be nice and... yeah, I want it to fit. This isn't thick bread either. Cleaned out, but you can see it's still got some burn marks on it. Let's also turn the melt
zone right down to one. I feel like I don't need to
preheat it, but I'm gonna. I'm gonna do what it says. I wanna have baking parchment for when this thing is hot as well. (toaster rattles) Look. That is mental. (sizzling) I've got a bonus guys.
I think I'm gonna stop. This is actually starting
to worry me a little bit. There are actual flames. (metal rattles) Yes, um... okay. Okay. That thing is blooming lethal. If you've liked this video, don't forget to check out the rest of the kitchen gadget playlists. Have a barathon, they go on for hours and let me know any cool
ones you've seen down below. In conclusion though, if you like your grilled
cheese very well burnt, with the potential risk of
burning your house down, it might be me, it could be user error. I gave it my best shot, but
I'm not trusting it anymore, than this thing's for you. Even the dogs are a little scared of it. They're literally under
the chair right now. As for me, even though
this grilled cheese is about two hours old now... still tastes good. Maybe
it was something to do with the electrical
American conversion thing and the power that thing
was putting through it, I don't think so. Bye. What's this? - Milk - [Barry] It's not milk,
what are you all about? Apparently... - Apparently it makes (mumbles) - [Barry] What?
