Details

Create your most popular sandwiches, quesadillas, hamburgers, and more with the Avantco P78 grooved commercial panini sandwich grill! This sandwich grill features 1750 watts of heating power for fast and thorough cooking, and its grooved grill plates provide tantalizing grill marks for an excellent presentation. In addition, specialized hinges allow the top plate to lay flat against the food rather than at an angle, ensuring complete contact and uniform cooking.

To ensure consistency, the thermostatic controls allow you to adjust the temperature of the grill to accommodate the appropriate cooking temperatures for different foods. The temperature is easily adjustable between 120 and 570 degrees Fahrenheit to cook or warm a wide variety of foods, while the stainless steel exterior and cast iron plates ensure long-lasting durability and strength. And thanks to the included drip tray, cleaning up is a breeze after every use.

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.

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!

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.

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.
