Whether it's a Reuben from your local deli or a Tesco meal deal, the humble sandwich never disappoints.

So it's no surprise that a 'game-changing' microwave hack promising to deliver the perfect toasted sarnie has gone viral on TikTok.

With thousands of rave reviews online, this gadget is doing the rounds on social media and making a lot of people hungry in the process — and it costs less than 30 quid.

Social media users are shocked that you can use the toastie maker in the microwave and are rushing to get their hands on the cult item from Morphy Richards.

TikTok user @heyitsshels posted a video of the toastie maker alongside the caption: "Did you know you can make toasties in the microwave?"

The video amassed over 10,000 likes with users desperate to find out where they can buy one (although there was considerable debate over the lack of cheese in the toastie).

The toastie maker has earned thousands of rave reviews on Amazon too.

One chuffed owner wrote: “Never knew something like this existed. The toasted sandwich comes out like you had made it in a traditional sandwich toaster - scrumptious! Very easy to clean!”

Another agreed, adding: “This is a really great gadget, gives perfect toasties in minutes and is so easy to clean, 100% recommended.”

A third commented, “Easy to make a toastie in the microwave in just five minutes, perfect and easy to clean afterwards. What's not to love?”

Shoppers are not only loving the kitchen gadget for how easy it is to clean, but for how portable it is too.

People are taking the toastie maker everywhere with them, from the office to their mate's house. One customer even took it to the hospital with them, as they wrote: “Having been in hospital for a few months, we were limited on the food we could eat. This was a game changer and allowed us to make lovely toasties and paninis in the microwave.”

That's one way to avoid the canteen.

Aside from being one of the greatest inventions we’ve seen in a long time, the sandwich maker is designed to save time (and space!)

The microwave toaster promises to make 'scrumptious' toasties and paninis in minutes in the microwave so you don't take up too much room in the kitchen - a great shout for students.

It’s also very easy to clean with non-stick grill plates that can be stuck into the dishwasher. Not to mention it's portable so will be easy to hide from your roommates...
