2 year review
Besides the plastic peace in the photo braking and the grill not having enough depth it’s perfect coffee maker still makes coffee everything works. 10/10 perfect for small family’s

Breakfast station A++
I love this unit. It looks nice on the counter and the toaster and grill both work well. The coffee maker on mine doesn’t work i need to call the co and do an exchange for a new one… i spoke to them when i first received it and the manufacturer has an easier exchange process than amazon so i had to wait until the first thirty days passed but i expect the exchange to ho easily then my whole breakfast station will be great!

The hazard of multiple functions
Overall it’s an ok unit and it will do most of the things it claims it will. It just feels like you’re losing a little bit of what you would really want out of these appliances separately by saving the space and combining them into one. It’s ideal if you have limited counter space, like I do, but I can’t help but feel like I would have been better off just buying them separately and storing them away between uses.The coffeemaker is my most used function, and it does the job without the bells and whistles. This is a very basic on-off model. I don’t use delay timers and warming functions and such, so it works for me, but they’re pretty standard on even the cheap models now so it’s notable that they aren’t there.The oven is passable. It is also a standard on-off function, with a timer dial with demarcation for toast darkness. Definitely radiates a lot of heat, though I would say it’s about standard. The thing I’m missing most from this feature is temperature control. This is a marked downgrade from my old one and it bothers me more than I thought it would, and has repeatedly led to me using the standard oven, instead. At which point I might as well have gotten a standard toaster so I don’t need to preheat for 5 minutes just to make toast, which is primarily what I’ve been using it for. It does the job and this is definitely a “me issue”, but it is definitely the thing that impacted my own use of this product the most.Piggybacking off of the heat from that oven is the griddle plate at the top, which is inarguably the least effective of the bunch. I busted out the scientific method, switching up a new variable in each attempt, trying to be fair to this feature and it’s just awful. The one positive I have to say for it is that it IS pretty easy to clean, if you greased it first. If you didn’t, even that goes out the window as you have to scrub around every individual bump on its surface. This feature was more for my boyfriend, who refuses to use it after he watched me try it. I’ve tried it with eggs twice, and pancakes and bacon once each. It is INCREDIBLY difficult to get it to lay level. I busted out a level on my counter and everything and I cannot for the life of me figure out why it won’t lay flat. Stacking cardboard under the corner it leans towards doesn’t seem to change anything, it feels like the plate itself might be warped, but that’s pretty easy to check and it isn’t. Regardless, anything that goes on top of that griddle as a liquid, you are going to be disappointed in. All of the heat for the griddle comes from inside the oven below it. This leads to a tremendous lack of uniformity in heating, on top of the fact that everything you put on it runs immediately to the corner. I spend the entire time with the lid off just scooping more of the liquid out of the corner and on to the one hot spot; the corners never get hot enough to cook anything, even if you have been running the oven for 30 minutes beforehand. Both egg attempts ended up being scrambled, though the first attempt did not start out that way, it was just bigger than the area that was hot enough to cook it. I just had to give up on the pancakes. It just wasn’t gonna happen. The bacon turned out fine, in the end, but I ended up having to cut them in half to fit on the hot spot, and disproved my theory that if I just left the cover on that the heat would eventually regulate itself. If you’re in any way purchasing this for the griddle feature, DON’T.I honestly wouldn’t actively recommend this product. I actively dislike the griddle feature and I could have purchased the other two to my own standards for features for less money. It’s fine, and it technically accomplishes everything I actively wanted it for, and it does fit nicely on my counter, but I would look elsewhere.

Good size and quality
My sister loved this present. Perfect for 1 or 2 people!

It’s perfect for cooking.little meals. Also.compact and will cut down on electricity vs. oven and microwave. We all know how expensive it is these days! 5/5EDIT:AFTER THE FIRST USE, THE COFFEE OVERFLOWS OUT OF THE TOP AND WONT GO INTO THE POT, CREATING A HORRIBLE MESS THAT IM NOT EQUIPPED TO HANDLE AT 4:30 AM.Today, I turkey basted it off the counter and out of the filter into my cup, only after contemplating pouring cream and sugar directly into the counter and grabbing a straw.This is not the best part of waking up.

As soon as I saw the $150 (most expensive) version of the Nostalgia Retro 3-in-1 Family Size Electric Breakfast Station I knew I had to have it. I never had an Easy Bake Oven as a kid and I needed something to cook in my room during this Covid madness ASAP. As a food writer, photographer and reviewer, not having a place to cook food was killing me.Product testing did not start off well when water started to spill all around the coffee carafe. Turns out there was an unaccounted for plastic teaspoon in the water basin! Once I removed it, I never had problems with making coffee again. I have not had issues with pouring coffee either, like some people have said.The griddle needs some time to get hot but once it does, it is quite hot! If you check out my pancakes photo the middle and right side do tend to run hotter. There is no controlling the heat so you have to pay attention. Having the glass lid to control splatter is a must for me since I used it to make bacon and did not want that spraying all over my bedroom.I made pancakes, French toast, sausages, bacon… I love using the toaster oven to warm up bread, muffins, pieces of pizza… Having that warm function is fantastic!The breadcrumb tray is slightly slanted and man this sucker was impossible to get out of the box without destroying it but overall, I absolutely LOVE it! Now that it is safe to use my kitchenette again I will use this as my bedroom bistro to make paninis, coffee and heat up my food. I realized after I stopped being able to breathe because of the smoke from the bacon that cooking in the winter with the windows shut in Canada is probably best avoided if possible. That said, this is perfect for people living in small spaces who need to make food.I was not sure the coffee maker required a paper filter but from the instructions I deduced that the filter it comes with is fine on its own. You can find a complete review with even more photos on my site Suzie The Foodie. Overall, it is not 100% perfect (check the water basin for that damn teaspoon!) but it more than delivers. Definitely worth $150 during the pandemic and I look forward to taking it with me on my future foodie adventures. I love this little unit deeply.
