Why have I never owned a pie maker before? I really don't know. Idly trawling through youtube, as one does, I hit upon a couple of videos about pie makers. I was intrigued enough to do a bit of research, and found the name Schallen. Well, as fortune would have it Amazon had this on offer at the time, which represented a saving of around a tenner. My research had flagged these as being a good make. It arrived in a couple of days and right out of the box I was impressed. Solid, lovely deep dishes, and the ceramic coating looked good. Within a couple of hours I had it wiped down, pastry made, cases cut to size with the provided cutter. Pies made. Tucking into a lovely minced beef and onion pie. OK not he most exciting filling, but it's what I had. It was ridiculously easy. The coating is great, totally non stick so far. Only made a dozen or so pies so far, including open top tarts and sweet pies. This gadget is a game changer for me. Now experimenting with pastries and fillings. What with this and the air fryer what more does an every day cook need. I love it, and great value. Solid construction. I will update after a few months use. But for now, if you are considering a pie maker, just do it.

Nice and easy to use

I bought this only to realise that the pie made would be too big for one person , so as it's basically an electric hotplate out of curiosity i tried frying with it , excellent , fried egg , bacon , crispy fried bread and beautiful omelettes , a tablespoon to a tablespoon and a half of your usual cooking oil then let it heat till it sizzles and add whatever , works perfectly as an electric frying pan !

Love a gadget! This makes amazing pies so quickly! They look very professional too.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five Stars Didn’t have any pastry to hand, so decided to test this pie-making machine with sliced bread instead — and I’m genuinely impressed. I filled it with baked beans and cheese, popped it in, and it worked brilliantly. The bread crisped up nicely, the filling was hot and gooey, and it held together far better than expected. If it can handle a makeshift bread “pie” this well, I’ve no doubt it’ll be great with proper pastry. Easy to use, quick, and surprisingly versatile. A fun little machine that does exactly what it promises — even when you bend the rules!

Very easy to use . First time made a perfect apple pie. It's a bit fiddly getting pie out. But no doubt over time it will get easier. I like the versatility of this pie make from savoury to sweet . Very happy with this product. Highly recommended .

I love this machine! It's great for batch cooking pies for the freezer or just using up leftovers. There's a few instructions I don't follow though as I personally don't think its needed, plus you'll get 3rd degree burns if you try. I don't preheat the machine, nor do oil the base/lids due to the fats in the pastry. I use shortcrust for the base & puff for the lids (without egg/milk wash). I add my pastry & cooked filling whilst the machine is cold & cook for 8/10 mins. Super easy to clean & the size makes it easy for storage Brilliant kitchen gadget for the price!
