Grooved, Double Grill Plates

The grooved plates provide tantalizing grill marks for an excellent presentation, while also ensuring complete contact with your product for consistent, even heat supply. The cast iron plate construction provides long-lasting durability and strength. Plus, having two separate grilling sections allows you to double your output in the same time frame.

Specialized Hinges

The specialized hinges allow the top plates to lay flat against the food rather than at an angle. This ensures complete contact and uniform cooking.

Heavy-Duty Construction

A heavy-duty, stainless steel construction ensures that the unit is built to withstand a rough and tough kitchen environment.

Removable Grease Tray

The edge of the grill plate is angled downward to collect grease and direct it into the removable grease tray. When it's time to clean up, the tray can be removed and emptied.

Dual Thermostatic Controls

To ensure consistency, the dual thermostatic controls allow you to adjust the temperature of the grill to accommodate the appropriate cooking temperatures for different foods. With a 120-570 degree Fahrenheit range per grill, you'll have no trouble keeping up with high-demand. You can even cook two different products at the same time because each side of the grill has its own independently-controlled heating element!

Heat Resistant Handles

The panini grill itself can reach up to 570 degrees to cook your sandwiches and quesadillas at top speed, but the handle will remain cool to the touch. This ensures the user's safety during operation.

Beautiful piece! However, no handles to easily move to clean. And the trap to collect debris also has no handle so it's very hot to remove and dump in the middle of a busy service. The most troubling thing was the right side of the press stopped warming up after ONE WEEK of using it! Seriously! Very disappointing. Still waiting to hear about warranty information. I'd spend a little more money and get a better press if I were you.

Bought the double panini press 5/2020. It arrived dented with a full broken handle. They sent me a replacement handle only to learn how it was built you can’t replace pieces ??Now operating with a broken handle. Last month one whole side of the press got overwhelmingly hot and now burns everything.. even on the lowest possible temperature setting! Not even a year old.. I thought maybe I just had bad luck but after readin* the reviews, I will not be buying another advantco panini press!

Wow! what a piece of crap. less than 9 months old, two issues, had to fight the first time to get a replacement piece, then less than a month later lost a whole side. in under a year? I have just read the reviews, this is a major concern for most people. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY on this product. it is NOT commercial quality. I have pressed for help, and all I get is "sorry" and no, I am NOT buying any replacement pieces on equipment less than a year old. I have learnt my lesson. I am buying no more Equipment from them, in under a year, I have had to fix an ice-machine, a refrigerator and now lost this piece. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

Well we were fortunate enough to make it 14 months before we lost a whole side of the grills. Maybe it should not be advertised as “commercial” if you have to buy a new one every year? Plug that side in and it trips the circuit every time, so obviously it would start a fire if it wasn’t for GFI. Very disappointing. Don’t buy!!!!

While this press worked for a couple months, it started sparking and smoking within 5 months of receiving. Spend the extra money and buy Waring or better.

Bought this panini maker March 28, 2023 After using occasionally one side went up in smoke. Other side still works. Not worth the money. I was expecting better results as I have many other avantco products in my kitchen. I basically purchased all my restaurants needs from Webstaurant.

Great concept with 2 stations for the panini grill. Unfortunately this product was too big for our Restaurant. We just didn’t have the space for it.

Like the product, works as needed. The only thing keeping this from being 5 Stars is the dented upper press, no way of knowing if and when this happened, doesn't affect it operation. More of an FYI.

I've purchased/had one replaced 3 or 4 times (I've lost track now). They're great bang for the buck... Until they're not. I've had some units last me a week, some close to a year. Up to you if you want to roll the dice on this. From what I hear, they're discontinuing, probably due to the slew of terrible reviews. Good luck!

Bought this grill about 2 years ago for my bakery/cafe that serves up panini's for lunch. This has kept on trucking along, allowing us to produce ~40-60 paninis per day.

Does the job, assuring your customer that their Panini was actually made on a Panini press (see toasty lines), and not thrown in the microwave (horror!). Also potentially useful for home invasion, should you need something heavy to throw at intruders...

I originally bought this grill 6 years ago and it worked great in my first cafe! It made sandwiches fast and we were able to grill 6 at a time. We never had any issues with it. I am opening a new cafe and just bought the same grill to use at this location as well! Recommend.

We use this grill every day to make paninis and other grilled sandwiches for breakfast. It works well and has held up well. We also purchased the Avantco P75SG grill with groved and smooth plates and that one works excellent as well!
