Used this a few times now and could not be happier. We started with traditional and curry pies and are now doing apple pies as well. We followed… Read more
the instructions carefully ensuring a 1/2 cup of filling (or a little more) and ensuring the filling was not too wet. The pastry is crisp on the bottom and the top (see photos) and is a lovely brown even without egg wash. As we can control the mixture we are eating better then what comes from the supermarket.
There are a few missing features like a on/off switch and the lid clasp could be a bit more robust but for the price we are still very happy with our new pie maker.

moulds and the pastry starts to melt if it takes too long. The puff pastry on top does not cook evenly. Considering the cost of the ingredients and the amount of time it takes to make a pie, it would be far easier and cheaper to go to a bakery and buy one.

required to allow the pie tops to rise and cook through. Also using a tamp similar to the size and shape of the pie well made filling and sealing to the top easier. I’ve noticed that some pie makers come with a tamp and one of these would have been beneficial to successfully create a pie.

So unhygienic – Cheap nasty and unhygienic. There is a hidden oil catchment area inside this pie maker that you can't access to clean. I discovered it after I'd… Read more
cleaned the inside of the machine and then left it upright on its side to dry. All the half-congealed oil dripped out onto my bench top and kept dripping. I could see where it was coming from but couldn't get inside. Total greasy mess. Daughter said to take the machine back to Kmart but I was so grossed out that I ended up throwing it in the bin. Don't be fooled by all the 5star reviews on Kmart's website.
