So I tried a £5 Hot Dog Maker
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 май 2020
- I bought this hot dog making machine for £5.50 off of ebay! An absolute bargain.... or was it?! To be honest They normally retail at around £40+ and are tricky to get hold of these days, so this appeared like a bargain!

Barry if you want to give that hotdog gadget away how about giving Big Clive a call and send it to him, he can do a video on why it’s so dangerous
Next time go to a South African shop and buy Boerewors , will be the best Hotdog you ever have.
Did you have a subpanel or maybe GFCI outlets somewhere between your breaker box and kitchen? The answer should have been to flip a breaker for sure, but I saw the panel you showed was okay.
Don't think I've ever seen such thick hot dog buns or such skinny hot dogs in the US.
Plugging in something that draws enough current to need a 13 A fuse will burn a fuse with a max load of 3 A, it's just a question if it's a fast or slow burning fuse that determines how soon the fuse burns when the current passes that threshold.
Poor Mrs Barry. You can see the horror in her eyes that she is this close to having her dream home and along comes another grilled cheese sandwich maker.
Dream home vs hot dog, tough call.
I'd make him test them outside, he's a disaster magnet lol
The funniest bit for me is him getting the frying pan out for the onions, when he could have easily used that to heat up the fully cooked hotdogs he bought. Both the Herta and Unearthed are safe to eat straight from the packet. No idea why he thought they were semi-cooked or raw. Flicking matches at the buns would have done a better job of toasting them. I love these videos but it's almost always not about how bad the gadget is, it's about how Barry follows the instructions to the letter, but gets confused by the food.
Mrs Barry's horror at the loss of electrical power meaning no washing machine, "and I can't even go to my mum's", I was totally empathising with you at that point Mrs Barry, no hot water, fine, no cooker, that can be worked around, no fridge freezer, just keep the door shut and eat everything in 2 days, Hand washing clothes for 4 people in a sink that is the size of a large mixing bowl.. AAAARRGH ! Electrically I hope you will have the kitchen on a separate loop to the utility room Barry, it will lower Mrs Barry's stress levels 😃
@@mistywolf312 Barry needs his own electrical circuit!
Send it to Big Clive, maybe he can find what's causing it to trip your RCDs!
Or he could swap it out for his own Hot Dogger, which cooks hot dogs in less than 30 seconds.
Yes, 100%
Hahaha I came here to post the exact thing! Big Clive needs to take a look at this!
I was thinking the same thing. I’m sure Ashens did something with him a while back, he may have his details.
I would love to see BigClive do a tear down of this! Please make it happen!!
"this hot dog maker keeps blowing our electrics, its a good thing we opened it from the bottom and left the seals intact so we can sell it for a fiver on ebay as unopened"
Mines did the same thing I wonder what’s going on with that machine 😂
Barry's house: doesn't have electricity
Mrs Barry: what have you done stop!
The kids: we don't have internet
Barry: well do you want a hot dog or not
It's worth it for the hot dog.
the worst part is. They figured out the gadget is the problem and there's a burning smell and the sockets are still on yet they leave it in the socket even when the lights are back on!
Therapist: "And what brings you here today?"
Mrs. Barry: "He can't stop putting sausages in silly machines that explode in my kitchen"
Underated comment.
"All he thinks about is hotdogs and asking do you want a hotdog?"
@@jamiegriffin-smith9931 "and don't even get me started on what he tried to do with the microwave...too many things going boom!".
@@SimonMetin If the hotdogs tasted good thats all that matters right?? Right!!
11:50 "I don't wanna put any tongs or anything near that." WHY IS THAT THING STILL PLUGGED IN ANYWAY?
"I don't wanna put any tongs or anything near that" but what could go wrong if I use my fingers?
Okay, I have a HUGE sneaky suspicion that this was used! I think we might have to buy it from the retailer. Everything tells me that this was a faulty product from the get-go.
yeees this was my first thought as soon I saw how it was packaged D:
Totally agree
it was 100% used, the white powdery stuff was from a label they ripped off, the bottom flaps had clear marks they had been previously opened and the rest of the bag being ripped and only one piece of polystyrene
100% used. No way in heck that was new. If it was, that ain't a £50 product with that shoddy packaging. They obviously opened it, then sold it cus it was faulty
I thought that too 🤔 I’d be leaving negative feedback for that Ebay seller! It’s a bit sus
I actually yelled "NO DONT!" at my screen when the lights went out and Barry moved it to another socket haha.
LordDragox412 You *can* do that, but a tripped breaker is usually a sign that there’s something wrong with your wiring, or with the device you’ve got plugged in, doesn’t it? Why mess around when it’s just for a video that you can do later (if at all) when things are sorted?
Kind of like John Hurt's character leaning over the newly opened egg in the film _Alien_ :-)
Your wife is the most patient person, lol
Barry is great but Mrs B is the star of the show.
@@lwaves agree 100%!
Barry was testing her patience to the limit here. I don't think that I've ever seen her look quite so disturbed.
The way she said "compromise" tells you this isn't unchartered waters 😂
Barry 2019: Makes complicated pastry with £100 worth of ingredients
Barry 2020: Buzzcut chav makes hot dogs in £5 machine of EBay, burns down moms house
*I see this as an absolute win*
My sense of time is so warped, but wasn’t the grilled cheese maker in 2019 as well? Almost burning down the house is his charm point (not even sarcasm, you’re hilarious Barry!)
I still can’t get over how calmly you said “oh now it’s on fire” with the cheese toastie maker
I think Mrs B needs to confiscate your eBay account for the safety of her new house
Her new house? Doesn't it belong to both of them?
"This thing blows all circuits it touches. Let's keep plugging it in!" good work
Honestly, at least the other failure gadgets (esp the ones that caught fire) tended to stay self-contained. Whereas with this one, when it fails it takes the entire house down with it
I was clenching my butt a bit about that, but at least it was entertaining!
@Lassi Kinnunen yes UK plugs do. But if it pulled more than the fuse is rated for then the fuse should blow rather than trip one of the circuit breakers. A 13A fuse (which is should have installed) is enough for a 2kw fan heater though, so should be plenty for something like this. Possible that the entire circuit was overloaded but more likely some sort of internal fault with the product. Because it only had a 3A fuse in I'd expect that to blow long before a circuit breaker.
@@archaon8853 yeah probably a live neutral fault or live earth fault probably the only reasons the RCD would trip
@@archaon8853 RCD would trip before the fuse. Modern ones are incredibly quick.
You know when a title starts with ‘Um’ it’s going to be good 😂
Shall we all chip in and buy Barry one of the plugin breaker sockets that he should have got years ago?
"come on let's all have a whip round, pay the RUclipsr pay the RUclipsr!"
Huge props to Mrs Barry for letting you keep filming.
"Who opens a box like that"
People who go in retail stores and either want to look at something or steal it because the picture and specs on the box aren't good enough for them.
By the way, anyone reading this that is one of those people, you're worse than a Karen.
I worked returns at Wal-Mart, and you'd be amazed the lengths ppl go through to get rid of faulty products. Some will buy a new more expensive item, take it home, open the box carefully (like from the bottom), switch the new with the cheaper old, then return it looking unopened. Usually saying they bought the wrong one, or something along those lines. Box looks unopened, so its taken back and sometimes put back on the shelf
Yeah not a cool thing to do at all!
@@Mike_Toulon Or in this case the previous owners of the toaster opened the box, tried it and it turns out it burned down their fuses as well and send it back like it was never used.
😁
@@Mike_Toulon i hope they'll start using something to check these unopened boxex(maybe x-rays like in aiports or something like that)
next time, buy a surge protector extension and use that for ya dodgy ebay deals
Yes! We have a power board/strip where you can plug 4 things in to one outlet, it has a surge protector on the side. A little red button, but with how old our house is, if you have the microwave on while the kettle is boiling, it flicks off the kitchen fuse in the fusebox 🤦🏻♀️😂
Wouldn't do anything. That's not what surge arresters are for
Yorkie0362 oh, well then I meant a ‘safety switch’ it cuts the power to the outlet so you can’t get electrocuted by a faulty appliance. Appliances in Australia don’t have fuses in their plugs
You want and RCD rather than a surge protector
Yep.
Surge protectors stop the thing plugged into it from getting fried if theres a power surge (lighting strike etc)
If you want to protect yourself from getting fried you want an RCD protected lead/board.
An RCD cuts power when it detects a short or ground leak, instead of letting the power go through you and doing the whole death thing.
Bad feedback for that eBayer.
Please get this sent to BigClive he does electronic teardowns and reverse engineering. Would be nice to see him take a look at this!!!!
@bigclivedotcom
Barry: "it's like a bomb"
Also Barry: *Leans in closer*
I love that there's a flashback of the American Cheese Grill Toaster fiasco in every video you post.
"Oh, it's on fire." lol
"Why does this always happen to me?" asks man who keeps testing dodgy electrical gadgets.
i love how mrs barry tries to be frustrated but can't help but laugh at the silliness
Nothing like the smell of toasted house in the morning.
Never used? I'm thinking there's a good reason why.
"But who opens things through there!" Someone who buys things, uses them and resells them on Ebay saying they are brand new.
That was used. No way the tie for the cord would be wrapped at the bottom, and not around the cord. No way there would be one piece of Styrofoam, and no way that would not be in the plastic bag. I would report the seller to eBay for selling that as new/unused! You could have had a fire. Good thing your circuit breaker worked.
Barry: Did you like that?
Amy: =pug noises=
Hey Barry. Just paused where you put the buns in for the first time. I will say the buns are bigger then the ones we have in the states. Seeing as it claims to be an American hotdog cooker it might be designed for the american style buns. Keep up the great content!
Send it to bigclive!
"Oh Frank! What have you done now?!"
"I don't know Betty, the power just keeps going off!"
"Frank! The kitchen's on fire!"
"Oh Betty!"
"Frank!"
I have this machine and had no problem with it at all. The "oven" part is just a warmer for the buns not a actual oven. I love mine.
Can I just say that I love you and your wife? Your girls, and pugs, too. I love your whole family! I recently lost my father during this whole global mess, but watching your videos have been bringing me some comfort. Thank you
Barry is good “Dad” vibes.
Mrs.B is comfort vibes
And the kids and dogs are comic relief 😂
14:52
Barry: "We alright?"
Mrs. B: "Just came to check on you."
Barry: "We're okay"
Mrs. B: "Okay"
Barry: "You want another hot dog?"
Mrs. B: "No, thank you"
That's the most hilarious exchange I've seen on this channel, tbh.
There was definitely some not family friendly words said when the camera was off.
@@jamiegriffin-smith9931 Apparently also while the camera was rolling, although I couldn't catch the word she said
Why do I feel Big Clive is watching this and laughing?
Of course he is he mentioned about the cheese toastie In one of his videos so he is bound to be
Time to break out the hopi.
Your enthusiasm and genuine excitement is what makes these videos so great!
Thanks
Send it to Big Clive!! He'll give us the full low down on this house cooker!
You should get an RCD socket fitted specifically for these gadget videos, might be an idea given your having a new kitchen anyway.
but then videos like this will be boring.
When pulling the door open, that metal rack lowers, I recon the rack has hit the element at the bottom & shorted the machine out.
So when it came to putting the par cooked roll in the oven didn't work after.
I think your onto something there mate
That didn't happen the first time the power cut out though, only the second. I think it's just a faulty device.
Barry Lewis: *buys a dodgy hotdog toster thing*
Electric: aight Imma head out
I need you to do 2 things for me in future Barry.
1. Always check the plug and fuse on any second hand electrical gadgets you've bought, especially when they've been opened (That hot dog machine was definitely opened before you got it)
2. Buy a surge protector for any future electrical gadget tests
I'm worried you'll come a cropper after watching that.
Yeah....just pop them all in a George Forman instead.
They're also great for toasted sandwiches!
Idk if you remember me, but I’m the girl who commented a couple years ago suggesting you use the term “barrathon”for your gadget testing playlist and although I didn’t hear it in this video I hear it in so many and it always makes me smile. Thank you for continuing to make these videos !!! Sending love from Alberta canada!
I get so nervous everytime Barry makes a callback to the Toaster On Fire
Ahahaha "It was a bargain! Five pound-fifty! It'll burn your house down!"
you know a gadget can’t be that good when the title of the video starts “um so...”
😂
Aww Barry my heart went out to you with the power cuts. Good on you for carrying on with the filming. The results are always stonking.
Your "never been opened" hotdog toaster, clearly looks "opened and used" mate lol..
how could you plug it back in after it tripped out the electric?!? I do not have your courage Barry 🥴
Was it courage or did he have a moment of massive stupidity? I vote a surge of stupidity.
Yellow wall is nice and compliments the green nice. It makes it look bright and sunny.
You're gonna need to build a concrete bunker with it's own separate electrical source to test dodgey electronics lol
I love that even though it blew the fuses you just carry on 🤣
Mrs B: *My washing machine!!*
Barry: yEs bUt l00K aT tHe h0tDoGs
"These are small rolls"...
We don't even HAVE that big hot-dog buns in Sweden! They are like two of ours!
I'm only a few minutes in and I'm already getting Grilled Cheese Toaster flashbacks...
I'm watching this during my online classes and my mic was on, I laughed soooo hard..
Now everyone will watch this cuz my teacher made me share the link of what was funnier than her lesson
On today's episode of: Things that Never Happened, this.
Before I even watched this video or read the description I just saw the word "um,.." at the start of the sentence when the notification came up and immediately thought "Don't tell me Barry's done another Toaster incident?", lol
Thank you for this! I completely enjoy your gadget testing videos. In our house, we can only run 1 plugged in electrical appliance on the circuit at a time, so when we get out the crock pot, electric griddle, blender, etc, it has to go on one side of the kitchen and unplug the coffee maker. if we put any of these on the other side of the kitchen, we have to unplug the toaster to use something else. it's goofy, but it's a learning curve that took us a little while to figure out.
Your not cooking anymore right?
😂 ms.lewis just wants to have a normal house without everything blowing up in the process.
Looks like the cord reacted with the styrofoam.
Yes when the PVC cable rests against the Expanded Polystyrene they react it's very common on new equipment they used to put a plastic bag on the cable but dont anymore.
I think you need to stop buying toasters
2:22
for some reason the material thats used on those cables like to eat through stuff, i think it can even leave dents in the plastic if left for too long.
I've heard that before. I watch a few channels that deal with old electronics and people like to wrap the cord around them and it would indent the hard plastic shell of the electronic overtime.
Wait ... what!? x_X
I got one of those nice malluable rubber erasers in an art travel kit. I opened it, used it, put it back in the tray and left it for a few months. When I came back it had completely _fused_ with the plastic tray underneath and ruined the whole eraser -_-
Same problem if you leave certain "female pleasure aids" next to each other, or resting on plastic surfaces.
Never has a £5.50 ebay win brought such joy to one mans face
Loved your enthusiasm lol
Mrs. B's face… hahahaha priceless: "I did not sign up for this". hahahahahah
Day xx of quarantine: Barry's hot dog machine gains sentience and attempts to destroy the house
When the sockets went, I was in stitches 😂😂 love your videos Barry!
Very cool seeing the rest of the family! The top half of the machine seemed to work amazingly even if the bottom half wasn't so great. And seeing Smeg appliances always makes me giggle because of Red Dwarf.
2:06 When Barry realises you can by sealing stickers on amazon........
Have to use a power trip socket adapter from now onwards like the one you use for your lawnmower
Those rolls are fn huuuuge! The ones we have here is prob half the size of one of that, was thinking whole time, what is he talking about looks like it could fit 5, maybe with a bit of a squeeze but def 3.
Poor Mrs B, what she has to put up with - why, though, keeping using it when it was killing you electricity?
It's ironic isn't it? He needs to complete the RUclips video by potentially starting an electric kitchen fire to pay for his electricity bill.
I love your biscuit tin with the Union Jack on it.
OMG! This brings back memories! My mum used to work as a bus driver and once a year we would have a MASSIVE bake sale/junk sale and me and my mum would sell hot dogs from this big hotdog heater thingie with some crisps and a drink.
Sounds to me like u need a surge protector for when u have stuff like this just to protect ur kitchen
@@Okurka. well yea but the doesn't protect the devices plugged in, only the house. He needs a surge protector to plug things into that'll stop the surge from hurting other electronics
@@Okurka. rcd doesn't protect everything, you coukd believe the rcd, a surge protector extention cable would be a good idea
I suggest you buy a rcd plugin adapter (used for lawnmowers etc.) when testing these slightly dodgy gadgets. But made for a fun video though and those bratwurst looked amazing at the end!
He's already got RCDs on the house circuits. No point having another in series.
Oh no Barry be careful with the new kitchen poor Mrs Barry was having toaster flashbacks from the kitchen in your old house!....As always another great video,hope you found the source of the electric issue 👍👍
Problem was when the unit was steaming inside water built up and caused RCD to trip as current was allowed to conduct between live and earth within the unit
....plugging it in to another socket on the other RCD ultimately results in the same ....once it partially dried out with lid up no path to earth = no tripping ....nothing to worry about RCDs are super sensitive only problem I see is the buns are obviously meant to be steamed ....nice looking hot dogs though ...love your videos keep up the great work 👍
The white stuff on the power cord is Polystyrene from the packaging. The plastic that covers the power lead reacts to the Styrene
Love the quarantine cut 🤣
When Barry short circuits the house from a gadget hahahaha
Barry Lewis you should try any gadgets in a surge protected extension or plug adapter you can get them in argos or b&q ect
Barry... I loved this so Much!
Stuff on the cable was probably polystyrene packaging, looked like the previous owner had gone in from the bottom otherwise it'd be in the polybag.
Hilarious that the first reaction to a loss of power was "what have you done", I've had machines kill my power but the fusebox has the flippy switch ones that trip the circuit instead of needing replaced if a newer house doesn't have those have a word with the electrician.
It blows out every socket? Brilliant!
Um maybe next time
You get a gadget on eBay buy one of those plug in circuit breakers (like they use for lawnmowers etc). That'll blow before the house. Funny though (cos it wasn't me 😁)
@@Okurka. Yes they do. But sometimes a surge may not be long enough in duration as to blow the plug fuse. This is one such case (a lawn mower quickly cutting an electrical cable is another where the blade may only cause a short circuit for a fraction of a second) RCDs and MCB circuit breakers react quicker than wire fuses.
It may or may not trip first. In my experience they'll both go (if we're talking about RCDs).
For it to not trip a 3A fuse, I reckon it's going to be a leakage issue, like some corrosion bridging a live conductor or heating element and the metal casing.
This is amazing. I'm just over half-way through, just got to the bit where the machine tries to kill the house, and my first thought was "I bet Ashens would be blowtorching that thing into oblivion right now."
Barry does Tat.
Difference is, Barry plugs his tat into the mains. 🤣🤣🤣
Appropriately I was eating sausage sizzle while watching this spectacular Barry fiasco!
I also think you should send it to Big Clive to see what's wrong with it and fix it!
8:13 - we have that very same light in our kitchen! :D
Hi Barry! Maybe consider using a power surge protector when using the gadgets in future! It will prevent anything like this
You need to send it to Big Clive
agree. lets see how radioactive it is.
We used to have one of those. My parents used it for yearsss
American roller hot dogs are quite skinny and often have rolls barely wider than the sausage, so I could see getting four of those in that gadget if I also wanted to pop all of my breakers
“It’s killing all the sockets.” That’s why it was £5.50. Whatever happened to the old cookers with an overhead grill? Best cookers they ever made. Back in the 1950s and 60s my mother had a cast iron cooker with metal on/off taps and overhead grill. So did my uncle. He used to leave the oven door open to keep the kitchen warm as toast in the winter. He was an ex army cook. I remember the lovely meals he used to make. Try experimenting with a Churro Maker. It should cook hot dog sausages and other things.
The chemicals in the electrical cable often react with the polystyrene foam packaging. That's what the crusty stuff was on the cable, polystyrene that had stuck to it.
Mrs B deserves a medal for letting you try that thing again!
The Quarantine haircut had me thinking Barry was a generic RUclipsr and not the king of kitchen gadgets!!!
Luckily I read the channel name or I coulda missed this gem. :)
