Hasbro Easy-Bake Ultimate Oven Baking Star Edition

The product was described as coming with three cake mixes. I bought this as a gift for my niece. When it arrived to her home, we found out the mixes were missing. The seller went above and beyond to make it right. He not only offered a return, but he also offered me a credit in the amount of the mixes, so that I could buy them on my own. I highly recommend doing any business with this seller! Oh, and my niece loves the oven.

I bought this for my 2-year-old niece so I could be the one to buy her her first Easy Bake Oven, ha! ha! Anyway, my sister put it together and long story short, the cookie dessert that came with this oven was SO DELICIOUS! My brother-in-law was like, "Wow, that is really good for a toy oven." It baked well, it's easy to set up, and every kid--boy or girl--should have one, really. Truthfully, I think a single adult who hates to bake could probably just use this for individual, easy-to-prepare desserts. Might be worth a try.

I had so much fun baking with my four year old daughter! The treats are very small which I love because she's only four so they are perfect for her little mouth! Brings back memories when my sister made things for me as a child! I ordered extra pans and more food packs as well as the recipe book! The book has wonderful ideas for using your own food to make all kinds of things.....

My 4 year old asked Santa for this for Christmas and he got it for her! I was a bit surprised that this only comes with a tiny mix and small little cake pan. You have to purchase the cupcake pan separately and the little mixes are very expensive, however, you can make your own recipes from scratch and save a lot of money doing so. It makes my daughter happy so it must be doing its job, however, it looks cheap and little. I thought it would be so much more but it is after all, just a toy.Pros: My child is so excited when she gets to make something.It is very safe, I can't see how a child could get burned unless they pull out the pan and touch it. You do have so supervise a little bit.It is cute.Cons: Its on the larger end and the pan that goes inside is tiny! It must be about 4 by 5 inches and less than a cm thick so you really cant make more than about the size of a large cookie worth of food.The spatula did not fit in the door how it should have so I had to make it work another way, by using the thinner end instead of the scoop.Not much mix provided and no cupcake pan.

I really wanted to love it but it is hard.THE GOOD:It is relatively simple concept of tou and relatively easy to use so a child of 10 can do it with absolute minimum supervision limitedto just making sure that they wont' burn themselves so might need help taking baked goodies out but they will manageto do everything else completly and totally by themselves.It does actually bake actually real eadable food.THE BAD:it is somewhat primitive, If you think something opens there like a door.. think again. It is actually a non operable piece of plastic.You use that long blue spatula to push the tray on the what you see in the picture looks like left handle of the oven whcih actuallyis not handle but a slot for a small tray with baked goods.. and you then use the same blue stick spatula to push the tray outthrough the left hole so it comes out through the what looks like right handle.it is so primitive and so bad that it really is sad. I wish it could open and just function like a normal microwave or oven type of thingsince we are here to teach our kids to use real appliances right? Why a child can not open a box? beyond me.Please redesign this thing/ If there is a time concern make a real timer build in so the door won't open during a baking time or something..there are some ways to do it right!THE UGLY.. : the mixes...So the oven does not come with much in terms of fun. If you are serious about buying this to a child do not attempt to end thereas anything less then 6 or 8 boxes of mixes that you can use to bake stuff with will be hugely dissapointed to a child.One box of mix keep them busy for entire 15 minutes so if you got one box then after that much it is nothing but dissapointmentif they can not do it again and they will and want to bake another batch instantly.Boxes of the food to bake in it are sold separately and individually and you need to sit down for this: they average in price of 6.00 bucks.yes. Not the worse part.. worse part is.. imagine a regular size of chocolate chip cookie, now cut it in 8 pieces! and this is about howmuch baked goods you get from one mix.. yes, about a size of one cookie.So that is really deal sort of like with printers and ink.. it might not cost much but the mixes wiill eat you up.I like others will be looking for ways to do it cheaper. My little girl already tried to make her own mix of cookies andthey were just as good as from the mix. Furthermore I hear people experimenting with buying just cheap supermarketcake mixes and makign small batches of them and they work fine. I will try that.manufacturer should really give parents break and offer larger amounts of mix at reasonable price.Otherwise = the toy is cute, the kid has fun but a parents frustration with primitive design and the price of refilesis reason for three stars.

I was nervous about getting an Easy Bake for my younger granddaughter, because the one I got for my older granddaughter got food stuck in it, which started smoking before we caught it and took it outside. It took effort to get it out. I was assured this model did not have that problem, and so far, it hasn't. She seems to be enjoying hers as much as I enjoyed mine 50 years ago.

The oven works as described; my complaint is that it's so ridiculous to mix a tiny little amount, and it has to be super flat before and after baking- it's just not worth the hassle. My 5-yr old still loves it, but it really makes more sense to bake the normal way.Update: This is such a waste. My daughter still loves it because it is hers, but here's why I don't:1. Finding tiny recipes is a pain. We were gifted a great recipe book (available on Amazon) that has the best collection I have found, but it makes such a tiny amount, it's hardly worth the effort.2. We just made cake that overflowed the TINY pan, and there is not going to be an easy way to clean it out (we are going to have to take the oven apart...)3. The mixes from the store are pretty nasty. The last one my daughter did had a weird fake-sugar aftertaste.4. Even with all of the (annoying) safety features so that kids don't burn themselves, they still need supervision. If you want to teach your kids to cook, just cook in a real oven.

My kid really likes it

We live in England so we only now got to use this (we got it at Christmas) because we needed an adaptor and I am really disappointed me and my little sister tried to use it we heated it up for ten minutes and it had over heated we couldn't get it to work after and the mix inside didn't work because the water made it too liquidy hBut what ever happened my little sister didn't even get to make anything with the toy that she has been waiting fir around a year for

I had an easy bake oven when I was young and wanted my daughter to experience the same joys...Get ready for a nightmare...First of all for the price you are paying you can buy 3 toaster ovens that will do a better job then this piece of crap. 2nd, It takes 20 min to heat up and another 20 min to bake a miniature cookie that cost 30$ to buy (if you purchase the packages, lol what a hoax and a package is not even included with this oven...). You can not see the baked goods baking while it is on, like we used to (isn't that 1/2 of the excitement when you are a kid?) I didn't want to buy premade additionnal packages for 30$ so I looked up recipes online and made my own little premade mixes but I still had to assist my kid with melting butter and adding liquid which is ok but I didn't find the design of the oven conducive to getting the kid to use it on her own...Do yourself a favor have a conversation with your kid about plastic waste and that you are better off getting them used to using your kitchen oven right away and donate the fee of this crazy expensive useless gadget to starving kids...

I feel like this set if pretty cheap. One rectangular tin comes with it, the spatula, and one set of packets to make brownies. We tried to make our own cake based on an easy-bake-oven recipe that we found and it rose slightly above the height of the short tin and got stuck. I'm not super impressed.

This is a childs gift
