CucinaPro Electric Tortilla Maker - 10" Roti, Flatbread, Non-Stick Cooking Plates with Ready Light and Cord Wrap, Make Homemade Flour Tortillas, Chapati More- Easy to Use w Recipes, Fun for Party Meal

Omg! Where has this been all my life. Prefect size, light weight, cooks great, excellent price. Makes work easier. Durable and heats up fast. Great for naan bread and flatbread also.

The features and specs clearly state this product has European electric specifications. It does not. Now I have a useless pile of junk in my kitchen. It would have been better if they had just not listed any electric specifications, I would not have wasted my time and money.

This machine is incredible! I have no idea why there are any complaints. It could be how or what they are using it for. Let me explain what I bought it for. I love homemade tortillas but cannot roll them into a circle to save my life. You cannot use a regular press like the one for corn tortillas, it simply will not work. The dough just will not expand and the dough just shrinks right back up. So, I bought this to try out. OMG!!! It is so awesome. I plug it in, wait about 3-4 minutes, roll a ball of tortilla dough in my hand, place it in the machine and press down firmly for 2 second, pick it up and press it again for 2 seconds and BAM, perfect ROUND tortilla. This thing will make them small or to the entire diameter, all depends on how many times and how hard you push. I just make the shape by pressing down twice then take it out and put the tortilla on my cast iron griddle to complete the cooking. DO NOT HESITATE, BUY THIS THING!!!! The reason it WORKS is because it uses the moisture in the tortilla and it "steam presses" the tortilla into the perfect round shape. It only takes 4 seconds. You CAN leave the tortilla on the cooker and it will cook it to a golden brown. I just like the cast iron because I am old school. If you leave it in the cooker to finish cooking, it will make your tortillas crispy the longer it is in there. Almost like a quesadilla. If I could give this 10 stars I would. Trust me, if you roll tortillas now and hate it, this will change your life. Home made tortillas are NO LONGER a pain to make. I even make a bunch of dough and refrigerate whatever I don't use that day. I can put cold dough in the press and have the exact same results.

Fantastic, works as advertised. Easy all in one press and double sided cooking of dough ball into flat bread. I preheated the griddle/press, then placed a 2 oz dough ball with a serving scooper in the middle of the griddle, pressed the top part down and after some seconds I had a delicious 8 inch Tortilla. It seemed to brown better on the bottom, so I flipped the flat bread over to get a slight browning on both sides. Please bear in mind that the portion size of dough will determine the final diameter of the flat bread and in my case, 2 oz of dough gave me a nice thin 8" Tortilla. I also need to point out that I used my own formula of dough, which is non grain anything. It is a proprietary blend of ingredients that is high in protein, fiber and fat, but very low in carbs. It was designed as a functional food, a substitute for the many traditional breads and specifically, a quality and all natural bread alternative for diabetics. The dough is extremely sticky, but cannot be dusted with flour to prevent the stickiness for obvious reasons. The non-stick surfaces worked fantastic, the tortilla came off easy without residue on the griddle/press.

This is a well built machine, heats realtively quick, but didn't know making fresh tortillas was so tricky. After placing raw dough onto unit there are so many air bubbles in the gough that need to be released every few seconds (or the tortilla explodes into bits) so it takes a whole lot longer to cook a single tortilla (no fault of the machine, just the cooking process) that I had expected. However the unit works really well to heat store bought tortillas, making quesidillas and believe it or not, I use it to make the best scrambled egg (1-egg) in about 20-seconds. It's a machine, but tortillas from scratch are just aren't as quick as I had hoped.

It is a very substantial appliance and it works as it is supposed to work. I use it for tortillas. The handle is not going to break or bend and the plates are exactly flat and come together with no space in between. It has 1000 watts, so it does not dawdle in heating up. I wish I could choose a 3.5 star rating. And I suppose if the appliance was engineered to allow less human interference and human error, I would give it four stars. But there is a LOT of opportunity for human intervention and a lot of iffiness and variables to deal with. Making acceptable tortillas is not a given with this appliance--any more than doing it by hand. It has some shortcomings: --A safety concern: The instructions say to cool the appliance in the open position. Well, the plates are large and they get very hot. I wish there was a safer way to cool it down, without leaving it open. I'm afraid to walk away from the appliance when it is hot and open, for fear someone will touch it by accident. Our cats are enthralled by tortilla-making (maybe the smell?) and I can see them hopping up onto the hot open face. --The cord is very short: I understand the need for a short cord, but 24" is really restrictive. It is shorter than you would picture it, so check your distance before purchasing. --The manual and small section of recipes is not very helpful. In fact, it contradicts itself in places. Plus all the instructions are for small 6" tortillas. What's with that? This appliance can produce almost 10" tortillas. This is not the easiest appliance to master, so very detailed and exact directions would have been appropriate. There are some tips (where I noticed the contradictions), but they are confusing and left me with more questions that I had to begin with. I must say (although I know Amazon does not like you to mention other reviews in your own review) I am very appreciative of the advice from some of the other reviewers. Without all that extra input I'd be having a tougher time trying to make decent tortillas. But I must also say: As difficult as this appliance is to master, it still beats rolling tortillas by hand! But. if you approach this appliance thinking you are going to make perfect tortillas right off the bat, you will be disappointed. Getting the results you expect will take a good amount of trial and error and a lot of practice. If you lack patience, you should probably stick with store-bought.

This item is great. I make the dough and put 2-3 inch dough balls the start pressing. I slowly turn them ninety degrees with a periodic flips. Too much pressure and small explosion ensues. A tortilla is ready and piping hot in roughly one minute. The tortilla maker works as advertised. No need for rolling pin. Seriously! Many recipes included but I make one from All Recipes. The tortillas are nothing like store bought. So glad with this purchase.

Mit dem Gerät kann man gut arbeiten

NO FUNCIONA BIEN, NO EXTIENDE LA TORTILLA COMO DEBE SER, NI LA CUECE BIEN.

I am extremely disappointed with the Electric Tortilla Maker. From the moment I unpacked it, I could tell that it was cheaply made. The instructions were unclear, and it took forever to heat up, even though it was supposed to be quick and efficient. When it finally did heat up, it didn’t cook the tortillas evenly at all. The tortillas came out either too thick or undercooked, and the non-stick surface didn’t seem to work properly—everything kept sticking. After only a few uses, the machine started to make strange noises and stopped heating up altogether. I tried to reach out to customer service, but the response was slow, and I never got a satisfactory solution. For the price, this Electric Tortilla Maker is a complete waste of money. I would not recommend it to anyone. Very frustrating experience!

Machine is sturdy but non-stick disappears pretty quickly. Ergonomically pressing mechanism should be improved to ensure less stress on the wrists
