Meet the new Microwave Grill Plate

Kmart has officially launched a spin off of the viral microwave toastie maker - the Microwave Grill Plate.

The product is also $15, just like the OG, but it’s larger, perfect for sandwiches, focaccias, chicken, fish and other meals directly in your microwave, according to the Kmart website.

“Omg it’s amazing”

It’s only just hit the shelves, and people are already loving it.

Influencer @dina.sweethome.style_ shared a video to Instagram using the product. First, she heated it up in the microwave for 60 seconds, before loading it up with a delicious sandwich. She heated it for 3 minutes in the microwave, and was left with a perfectly toasted sandwich.

“If you loved the small microwave sandwich toaster from Kmart… you [are] going to love this new larger microwave grill even more,” she wrote in her post.

“I have made toasted sandwiches , grilled chicken and halloumi and omg it’s amazing. It’s great for work lunches, holidays and if you have allergies and can’t share a grill at work with your work colleagues this is the solution.

“And noooo does not come out soggy!”

“What a great idea!”

While some commenters had hesitations about heating up plastic in the microwave, the majority couldn’t wait to pick it up and try it for themselves.

“Just added one of these to my very long list of list have's for the new house. A toasted sandwich is my fave go to for lunch!” said one person.

“Wow what a great idea and super easy to do and quick,” another agreed.

“Thats so handy, and awesome that it makes it crispy,” a third person said.
