Hamilton BeachPanini Press Sandwich Maker & Electric Indoor Grill with Locking Lid, Opens 180 Degrees for any Thickness for Quesadillas, Burgers & More, Nonstick 8" x 10" Grids, Chrome (25460AG)

I just purchased the Hamilton Beach Panini Press because I wanted to warm paninis and sandwiches, but I quickly discovered that this press does much more—it can also cook steak and other foods.One of the standout features of this panini press is its floating hinged lid, which evenly presses sandwiches of various thicknesses without crushing them. The dual nonstick grill plates (totaling 95 square inches) cook food evenly on both sides, reducing meal prep time to 10 minutes or less—perfect for busy schedules.While it excels at making paninis, this 2-in-1 grill is also great for grilling burgers, steaks, chicken, vegetables, and even fruit. The nonstick surface ensures food cooks evenly without sticking, and the slide-out drip tray helps collect grease for a cleaner cooking experience.Cleanup is hassle-free, thanks to the durable, nonstick ceramic plates that wipe clean with ease. Plus, the included spatula/scraper makes removing food residue effortless. The dishwasher-safe drip tray helps keep your countertops mess-free.Designed with convenience in mind, this panini press features a lid latch that keeps it securely closed for upright or flat storage, making it an excellent choice for small kitchens.My only cons are the non-detachable grill plates and the lack of a button or temperature control, but overall, it's great for grilled sandwiches and quick home-cooked meals.

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!

my daughter loves it

Nice simply panini press. It makes quesadillas so quick and I love a heated peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It doesn’t take long to heat up and it stores standing up. There is a place to wrap the cord underneath to make it easier to store. The only downfall is that it tips over easy when standing upright so I have knocked it over getting other appliances out of the cabinet. And I am not a huge fan of not having an on and off switch so you have to remember to unplug it. It does have plenty of cooking space for two sandwiches

Love it , very good quality

Fantastic and Easy! Excellent cooking surface, versatile for many different uses, excellent heat up, clearly visible indicator lights, removable plates for easy clean up.
