Quality production and full of power

This is my first Panini press, but I've used various non-stick griddles, waffle-makers, etc. The nonstick surface seems to be made of a better quality than other small appliances I've used (again: griddles, waffle makers, etc.). True, it does not offer removable plates, but it was so easy to clean. If you were trying to cook something with a batter, it might be messier, but for just sandwiches with some melted cheese to clean up, it's really easy.

This press has some serious electric pumping through it. Its 1500 watts of power allows it to heat up incredibly quick--about 5 minutes faster than my waffle maker. This may be an issue for someone with older electric in their kitchen without separate circuits for small appliances. But most large presses like this will be around 1500 watts.

Overall, it is well-made. The handle is sturdy, and it's designed so it can be stored standing up, which is nice. Sometimes storing awkwardly-sized small appliances can be a pain.

Overall, I'm really happy with this grill.

Wonderful product

This sandwich maker is super easy to clean, heats up quickly and has been overall great to use. Haven't cooked any meat on it yet but it has been great for all kinds of sandwiches.

QUICK HEAT-UP, CONVENIENT STORAGE

This unit is very well-constructed and heats up very rapidly for quick use. It has an adjustable height feature for the top plate, so you can use it both to press or simply heat closed and open face sandwiches. The Quantanium non-stick surface allows for easy wipe up cleaning. Although several folks have expressed a desire for removable plates, I have found that removable plates affect even heat distribution, so I prefer the attached plates.

The unit is very simple to use and cleaning is pretty simple as well, you just wipe the plates with a damp cloth. This unit also stores quite easily given its relatively compact size, and the electrical cord wraps nicely around the base, which is a nice touch. It heats very evenly and quickly, and the non-stick surface removes the need for any cooking spray, oil, or butter, which is always a plus. Be advised that given its size, this press is not designed to prepare multiple entrees at the same time, so if you are looking to turn out several meals at the same time, you may need a larger press. This press is well designed for a family of 2-3 people, although it also works fine for my family of 5, I just cook up our paninis in a few batches.

Panini magic

This press is wonderful - it heats up quickly and allows me to create delicious sandwiches. I have probably used it 10 times in the last week since I got it, and it hasn't disappointed once. I have tried every type of meat and cheese and they are all winners. The flat bottom grill plate is perfect so the sandwiches stay together and the floating top plate allows me to put as much stuffing as I want. I have tried Italian bread, just plain old white bread, wheat and artisan berads and they all worked great. I don't know what I did without this appliance! I try to put everything away for more counter space, but I am leaving this out because I use it so much! It's next to the coffee maker! I have a George Forman grill too, but this is far far superior. MUCH easier to clean and the metal parts seem sturdier. We'll see how it does over the long haul.

Nice Panini Maker

I bought my first panini press (the DeLonghi CGH800-U Retro Panini Grill) about six years ago. I have used it often (several times a week in the summer) and enjoy turning "regular" sandwiches into paninis. This Breville press has many of the same features I liked in my older press.

This Breville panini press is sturdy, with the initial quality impression that I expect from Breville. The floating hinge is handy, as I sometimes load the sandwiches thick. The cord wraps around the base and the unit can be stored vertically to save space.

The flat bottom plate is nice, but doesn't give the classic lines on both sides of the sandwich. I also wish that the temperature were adjustable.

While the manufacturer indicates you can use the bottom (flat) plate for things like pancakes and eggs, I haven't tried it and don't intend to. I can envision eggs going everywhere!

Overall, this is a nice panini maker. I knocked off a star for the lack of adjustable temperature, as that's what keeps it from being ideal.
