Six plate sets, one hinge
ETA Sorento Plus 6-in-1 Sandwich Maker
Six interchangeable plate sets on one 900 W body: waffle, grill, pancake, children’s shapes and two sandwich patterns, all stated non-stick. It is a 230 V European appliance: the Amazon.com listing gives 230 volts and shows it as currently unavailable.

The plus side, and the minus
Strengths
- Six plate sets — the widest range of shapes on one body here
- 900 W published, which the LEHMANN does not publish
- All plates stated non-stick and interchangeable
Compromises
- Again a machine with plates, not plates for a machine you own
- ETA publishes no plate dimensions
- Six plate sets is six things to store
- Shown as currently unavailable on Amazon.com
- 230 V: it will not run on a standard US 120 V outlet
Six sets, one body
Waffle, grill, pancake, children’s shapes, and two different sandwich patterns — all interchangeable on the same 900 W machine, all stated non-stick.
That is the widest range of shapes on a single hinge in this hub, and it covers three appliances a kitchen might otherwise buy separately.
The same caveat as its neighbor
This is an appliance whose plates come out, not a set of replacement plates for a machine you already own. On this market that is what the “interchangeable plates” category consists of, and it is worth stating plainly rather than filing it under something it is not.
What is not published
Plate dimensions, and any spare-plate reference. The second is the more important: a six-plate machine whose plates cannot be replaced is a six-plate machine with one lifetime. Ask before buying, not after the coating goes.
Storage
Six plate sets take real cupboard space. It is the honest cost of the idea, and it is the reason the LEHMANN’s four smaller plates exist as an alternative.
230 volts, and what that means in the United States
The Amazon.com listing gives the voltage as 230 volts and shows the machine as currently unavailable. A 230 V appliance is built for European mains; on a standard American 120 V outlet it will not heat as designed, and a plug adapter does not change the voltage. For an American kitchen, compare the machines on this site’s waffle and crêpe maker hub, and check the voltage on each listing before ordering.
What readers want to know
What are the six plate sets?
ETA lists waffle plates, grill plates, a pancake plate, a children’s-shapes plate and two different sandwich plates. All are stated non-stick and interchangeable on the same 900 W body.
Are spare plates sold separately?
ETA does not publish a spare-plate reference in this listing. That is the question worth asking before buying any interchangeable-plate appliance: this site’s waffle-maker hub makes the same point about the Breville, which is the one waffle iron there whose plates come out.
