Don't fall for it's cuteness
I have a very small kitchen so I bought this as a space saver. I like the retro style but this was a total "buyer's remorse" purchase. The dial on the left, which lets you select griddle, toaster over or both is impossible to see. The lettering is so pale (silver on silver!?) and the dot on the dial is so small, it's also impossible to line it up with the preferred setting without sticking your face right up to it. Worst of all, the toaster oven doesn't even make toast! This blew me away! It will unevenly brown the bottom of the bread and it takes close to 10 minutes for that to happen, let alone flipping it an waiting another 20. I already replaced this thing with a coffee maker and toaster.
be cautious when using
please if you are interested in buying this for your kitchen be careful it can sparks fire on the top griddle of something burning in the toaster. almost burnt my kitchen down had to use a fire extinguisher to put out the fire.
Great in theory. Spot on in practice.
I'd like to start by saying I may be used to doing more at breakfast than this device offers. We probably eat more variety in the mornings than most folks. We definitely drink more coffee than the pot makes at one time and probably eat more substantial portions as well. I got the larger unit as there are two of us, sometimes three adults total. We just eat more than the capacity of the device is all. However, the coffee does stay hot for a decent length of time, but it only makes about two and a half cups (it states four, so maybe our coffee cups are bigger than what they're referring to). The griddle works well, only it generates the same heat for the entire surface, and when I cook breakfast, I'm cooking at least three different foods (eggs, french toast/pancakes or potatoes, and some kind of meat). These all require a different level of fire, which is not an option. I think this unit would be perfect for someone single, or two people who have a smaller appetite perhaps. Cooking fried eggs, sausage and toast only for two would probably be a dream as the clean up is fast and easy. And the toaster oven is up to par with its function, heating pasties to the perfect temperature and gently toasting breads.. I was also impressed with how much this product actually does do, considering how compact it is. It's a definite must if you have limited counter space, or just don't have time to do a lot of cleanup in the mornings. Overall I'd say it's a very good value, saving time, space and energy.

Great All in one Breakfast Maker
Let me preface this by saying that I am not exactly a morning person and often times skip breakfast (I know, I know.) However, this machine by Americana makes the breakfast process a little more enjoyable. You can start making a pot of coffee which is just enough for two people, make a couple pieces of toast in the toaster over, and scramble some eggs on top. This would be a great investment for college kids, people living in a smaller space, and for camping. It's really versatile and really can be used for anything that you would use a griddle or toaster over for. The style is mid-century and looks great! My only complaint would be that I wish the coffee pot was a little bigger because sometimes I need a lot, but I understand that it's smaller in order to fit in with all of the other components and not make the machine too big. Overall, this is a handy little breakfast maker!

Great for one person
This appliance is all you need for breakfast. It has a four cup coffee pot plus a small griddle and toaster oven. Perfect for biscuits and bacon. I recommend it as a gift. I am so glad I got it that I have been showing all my friends.

Great item
I absolutely love this product. It's so awesome having basically all our breakfast necessities in one area. We can even make big pots of coffee for our family instead of using our single cup dispenser. I just like how it has so many functions that can be used in such a small sized product

Love it!!
I got my Americano 3-in-1 multifunctional XL breakfast center and I just love it! Now that my kids are out of the house, this is perfect for just my husband and myself. I use the top griddle for eggs and the toaster oven for toast while brewing our coffee, so now I spend less time in the kitchen! The clean- up is super easy and I love that this item is easy to operate! Definitely a good value and great quality added to my kitchen!

Handy multifunction center
I think this is one of the best ideas I have ever seen. This is not too big nor too small. It is a perfect size that fits great in the corner of my counter. The griddle on top is a perfect size for eggs however you want to cook them. You can also cook bacon, sausage, grilled cheese on the top burner. It has a cover that keeps the food warm. The oven part is really bigger than I thought. You can do like 4 pieces of toast and/or english muffins, bagels. The heat from the oven is what heats up the griddle. It has the cutest little coffee pot with a filter also. I do not drink coffee; but it works with my tea bags. I would definitely recommend this for some one who needs to save space and cook everything in one place. I also love the color.
