Cuisinart - Griddler Stainless Steel 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle and Panini Press - Brushed Stainless-Steel/Black

This multi-functional grill/griddle/panini press is incredibly easy to use. It is fairly small and is easily stored. The grill plates come off and are dishwasher safe. This is great for grilling veggies... Just make sure to slice them about the same thickness so they cook at the same rate!

This is a very good grill. I really like that it traps all the juices in so my meat is not dry after it's done being grilled.

Well designed, easy to use and clean. Two surface type Griddle and Grill. Dishwasher safe. Good greases collection system.

First time using a Cuisinart Panini Press. My kids love panini sandwiches and this is the perfect press to make them. The right size for a small or medium size kitchen.

Works very well making grilled cheese sandwiches and heating other things.

We've had this particular griddler for some number of years now. This includes cooking countless pancakes, french toast, hash browns, sausage, bacon and other assorted breakfast goodies. We've used it to make panini as well, but to a much lesser extent (a matter of preference, it does a great job with panini too). I can't say enough good things about it. The heat distributes extremely evenly, and never produces hot spots. The griddle plates themselves are removable (for easy cleaning) and reversible (flat vs ridges). Despite all the miles this thing has seen, the plates themselves are still in great condition. When it was on sale I bought two more, one as a replacement should it ever fail, and one as a gift. Whether it is used panino style (as a press) or opened all the way it never produces much of a mess, with excess grease/fluids finding their way perfectly into the drip tray. It cooks to perfection. Even at the hottest temperature settings, it's real hard to burn your food (ymmv depending on the food obviously). I'm no super chef, but I know my way around a kitchen just fine... I highly recommended.

I live in a 2nd floor condo, and can’t have a gas grill, but love grilled foods. My neighbor told me she had this Cuisinart Griddle and loved hers. I am so happy with my purchase. I use this grill all the time, and convinced another neighbor to purchase one. It is so easy to clean! The two grilling plates pop off and wash so easily in the sink. No sticking!

I love this thing! It does so many things well. I've used it as a contact grill for fish and chicken, used the griddle plates to toast pastrami sandwiches on both sides at once, used it as an open griddle for bacon, sausage and eggs, done thick panini on it and even used it as an open grill for t-bone steaks and it handled everything well. The plates pop out for easy cleaning (I just hand wash them) and the drip tray can easily handle the grease from an entire pound of bacon without overflowing. We also bought the waffle plates that fit this griddler and it makes great waffles with no sticking! It's great for making big batches of waffles, then freezing them for quick breakfasts.
