This was a gift for my granddaughter who loves s'mores. She has an electric one with short forks, but this product may be used around a campfire or at home in the fireplace. It is well made and easy to load. I would have given it five stars if there was some sort of insulation on the handle. As it is - it works well and holds three s'mores for toasting. But the handle gets quite warm, so wear an insulated kitchen glove.We love campfires and cooking smores - and had high hopes for this item. Unfortunately we have been a bit disappointed.The hinge on the end causes issues with the S'more closest to it. You end up having to smash that one down in order to fully close it. You inevitable break the graham crack on that one. That was using regular size marshmallows like you always use on S'mores (not those new gigantic ones).For me - the best part of S'mores is the burnt marshmallow - in this case, your S'more is surrounded by graham crackers (which get a bit crips, but not great) so the marshmallow never gets that nice campfire taste. It does melt and the chocolate melts but it just isn't the same.We ended up going back to the old fashioned tried and true method of roasting the marshmallow and putting the S'mores together ourselves.Unfortunately I can't recommend this - feels too much like a gimmick, not a really useful tool.S’mores fit nicely on this and the handle is nice and longWorks like you hope it will. Shove it in the dishwasher when done. Strong.So this works well if you use half a graham cracker and slice the marshmellow so it's super thin. I actually bought 'smore marshmellows' which are thin already so you don't need to cut them. Anyway, make sure the smore maker is tight to the smores when you close it up. If the cracker slides around, it becomes a huge mess! Also take it slow!! Even if everyone is waiting for the smores to finish, take the time. Otherwise, nothing melts and the cracker is burnt! A nice variation is to use Hershey's small bars - the Krakel, Mr. Goodbar ones.I like this, the only con I have is the "rings" to hold it shut were lose, I did try to tighten them but it wasnt working.Does make it easier to make a smore, careful graham crackers get hot too ofcourse!its good quality but theres not really a point to this device...the idea is to make scores with it but scores taste far better when you just roast the marshmallow and then put the cooked marshmallow on the graham cracker with chocolate rather than using this to roast it as a sandwich type thingfun for smores, even more fun for some decadent cracker, fresh cheese, herbs bacon etc treats we adults made
