Hamilton BeachHamilton Beach Panini Press, Sandwich Maker & Electric Indoor Grill, Upright Storage, Nonstick Easy Clean Grids, Stainless Steel (25410)

I bought this for my husband because he had been wanting a panini grill. I looked at the fancier, bigger, higher priced grills, but went with this one because it has a history of good reviews. Perhaps when he proves he is responsible with this one, I will get him an upgrade :)This one is nice because there arent a lot of settings to worry about and try to remember what settings to use for what. Just turn it on, watch for the light, and then you're ready to throw your sandwich on there. He always uses thick sourdough bread and is happy with the way his sandwiches turn out. I told him to butter the grill, not the bread, and so now his results are much better.The non stick grill surfaces are nice and easy to clean. Even if a little cheese oozes out, it wipes right off with a paper towel. Nothing sticks to the surface at all.It is the perfect size for two nice sandwiches (on large bread), but yet not too big and bulky to have to worry about where to store it and it is not so big that it is cumbersome to move around and clean, etc.A lot of the other lower priced models that I looked at did not have the floating lid. This one does have the hinged floating lid so you can get thick sandwiches in there and the lid will lay flat and evenly on top.Aside from sandwiches, it is nice for burgers and steaks too. Nice to have something like this when it is too cold to go outside and run the big propane grill. We eat NY Strip and Porterhouse steaks a lot, so this little grill is really nice to get us through the winter months and not miss out on the beefy goodness. This sears them perfectly and we are able to get them done to our liking of "medium well." Boneless split chicken breasts/tenders work out wonderfully as well.It feels very well made, especially for the price and we are both happy with it. I am happy to have found such a good model at such a good price and he is happy that it works so well and is easy to use. It is the perfect combination of price, performance and value. It is not lacking any necessary features and the build quality is perfect.

Best panini press ever.Makes great sandwiches, frozen hash brown, frozen Mortzella stickEasy to cleanNon stick plates are wonderfulDurable2nd machineAmazing value for moneyStorage capacity is very minimalPlate removable is not possibleMakes great taste food

Works great! All you have to do is plug it in and it heats up right away. Cooks evenly on both sides. Easy to clean. Non-stick although I sprayed top and bottom with non-stick spray before I placed my sandwich on it. I love the lock down feature. Just twist the knob and it compresses your sandwich so you're not just standing there trying to hold it down. I assembled additional sandwiches while waiting. Flipped each sandwich once or twice(I made them thick). The red is such a pretty color. I'd buy this again!

It's perfect for a reason. I would evaluate the griller on the below scales:1. Size: Fit 2 sandwiches or a half loaf in one go making things quicker2. Quality: Nonstick and requires very little oil. The outer material is also very sturdy3. Efficiency: Top and bottom heating and quick heating time4. Price Point: Got it in sale but the above benefits make it an excellent value for money in the category5. Cleanliness: Easy to clean

Really nice product for your panini needs. Super easy to use and makes the perfect sandwich. Also very stylish looking and I don’t mind having it on the counter.
