DeLonghi CGH800 Retro Collection Retro Panini Grill Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It works perfectly well. I have two minor complaints. One is that there is no real on/off switch. If you have it plugged in, and the heat dial at minimum, it still heats. That's important to be aware of. It's not your ordinary toaster, which doesn't do anything unless you push down the slider. Second problem is MUCH less important. The clip that's supposed to hold the top and bottom together in storage is totally worthless. Just don't depend on it.
That being said, it works very nicely as a panini press. The lid is flexible, and has a heat proof spot where you can tilt it to accomodate the thickness of your panini. The heat dial is generally accurate, so if you follow your instincts or the little cookbook, things turn out well. It's easy to clean up. I don't have enough room on the counter to let it out, but like most DeLonghi stuff, the style is very nice.

DeLonghi combines the cooking trends of today with retro design in this gleaming Italian sandwich maker. Softly rounded edges are handsomely paired with easy-to-clean, nonstick stationary cooking plates that provide two-sided grilling of favorite Panini combinations. The wattage is high to speed cooking time; an adjustable thermostat lets you customize the level - a lower temperature so cheese thoroughly melts or higher for a quick crisp of the bread. The hinged door adjusts in height to accommodate thin slices of sourdough or thick squares of focaccia. And for the health-conscious, little or no oils are absorbed thanks to the cooking plates that slant forward for oil or butter to drain into built-in channels. Other features include power-on and ready lights and a wrap-around cord. When not in use, the unit fastens shut and stands upright for convenient storage - though as delicious as these sandwiches are, this panini maker may very well end up a permanent fixture on your kitchen countertop.

Diablo Stovetop Toasted Sandwich Snack Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this, as 30 years ago my mother had a stovetop sandwich maker and she used to always make us kids, hot peanut butter sandwiches in the Winter time. The one she had came from her mother or grandmother and it was solid steel. This Diablo sandwich maker is not as solid but it is does have a non-stick coating, so butter on the outside of the sandwiches is not needed (unless there is a concern about burning bread). My 2 biggest complaints would be that the size could have been a little bigger (good size for square breads). For larger size bread, the Diablo cuts the edges off upon closing. The 2nd complaint is that Diablo is imprinted on every sandwich. I perfer no advertizing on my sandwiches. Overall it works fine and so far no cooking problems.

Black & Decker G48TD Grill and Waffle Baker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love this waffle maker! It's like the ones our mom used, not those cheesy seeming plastic things they're making now. It's also got a lot of excellent features that make my life easier.
I'll mention right now that this is a VERY hot waffle maker. They make the plastic ones to be "cool touch". I'll trade the cool touch feature for the sturdier design of this versatile machine. I'm being careful and haven't burned myself yet. But it's something to consider if you'd like your children making waffles. My ten year old could be careful enough, but I keep my five and eight year olds away.
The waffles this machine makes are great! They freeze well too. The family is very happy. When the light goes of the unit is ready to make waffles. Pour in the batter and the light comes on again--wait for it to go off and the waffle is done (however, I usually go on instinct and sometimes pull out the waffle before the light goes off.)
The open grill feature makes wonderful pancakes and fried eggs. I have a big family and it's nice to have two pancakes cook at a shot without taking up all my stovetop! I can have bacon and eggs on the stove and the pancakes on the waffle maker. (I can also have a heart attack if I keep eating all these bacon and eggs!)
The sandwich feature is nice. I can cook two grilled cheese sandwiches at one time getting me out of the kitchen quicker. Some advice--cheese might drip out the side of the sandwich. Just keep the sandwich away from the back of the unit where the cables run in and the mess just wipes off--no problem. The sandwiches cook far more uniformly than they do in a pan on the stove. They taste great.
This unit cleans up easily and changing the grills from waffle to flat is easy. I recommend it over a lot of more costly models if you want more value for your money. This is the most versatile waffle maker I've found and all the features actually work!

Cuisinart WM-SW2 Dual-Sandwich Nonstick Electric Grill Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The product does exactly what it is billed to do: it grills sandwiches quickly. The problem is that the grill is very small, so normal grocery store bread is way too big and it hangs out the side. In addition, if you want to make a bigger sandwich, i.e., stacked with several ingredients, the lid will not close and lock without Herculean strength and the risk of burning yourself. It does OK with two small pieces of bread and a small amount of cheese. But, for that, it's just as easy to heat up a nonstick frying pan. It would be, however, handy for students in dorms or others with no access to a stove.
