It's a good press, we use it daily for a variety of different paninis and it stands. Lifting the lid is a bit heavy and stiff, it's sometimes very hard and needs to be wrenched sometimes. The plates are a bit hard to clean as well, not very easy to take apart. Other than that, it's a great unit, and has lasted us about half a year with no actual issues involving the heat elements, or issues needing repair.

We bought this panini grill back in 2018. We have absolutely loved it, and our customers love their sandwiches. However, we are now experiencing problems where the top plate is no longer heating up and the bottom plate is heating but now it's cooking hotter since the top plates not heating up. I am reconsidering buying again but I'm going to look into other options, because I think it should last more than 3 years.

This panini press produces the perfect panini. Creates grill marks, and evenly toasts the bread, melting cheese all the way through. Love this product and highly recommend.

Excellent performer!! So much so that after 9 months of use we are going to purchase another! Heating surface stays hot in between uses exactly as needed.

This panini press is perfect for our shop and exactly what we were looking for. It heats up quickly and leaves the paninis with nice looking grooves and toasts the bread evenly inside and out. It is solid, sturdy and of good quality. This sandwich grill has a really good price and is very easy to clean, we suggest using a wire brush. We highly recommend this product!

I have not had this grill long, but it has out-performed my expectations. For an inexpensive grill it works great. The handle is a bit stiff AND there is a learning curve with regard to where to put your sandwiches, but overall the heating is very even.

Got it 2 years ago, working great!

This Panni Sandwich Grill press has been great. Heats quickly. Will burn it if you put your food in and it is still heating up. I would buy again.

This little panini grill has been amazing! We can cook up to 2 sandwiches at the same time which saves customer waiting times and clean up is extremely easy when you get the Carlisle 4067100 Sparta Wire Grill Brush with Scraper Plastic Handle!

It is standard weight and easy to move around for brunches and events. Easy to clean and it also looks very nice and presentable. We recommend it.

This does exactly what we need it to do. It heats quickly and is easy to clean at the end of the day. It does not have a bunch of useless features that will eventually need servicing.

Very nice product. i recommend it. It handles well heavy duty tasks, keeps the temperature and the size is good for the place I have (40 seats). Make nice paninis!! Easy to clean as well, which is great!

Verified Purchase

This is a good panini grill but it is not the easiest to use. It takes a while to heat up the grill and it is difficult to open up fully to put a sandwich in.
