Hamilton Beach Panini Press & Gourmet Sandwich Maker - 25462Z

Exelente

I normally would say that Hampton Beach provides an affordable range of products that suit the purpures and work well. Sadly, this was not the case with the Panini Press. The press arrived as is, with no packaging. The box looked like it had been beaten to death - ripped, bumped and falling apart. The press itself was fine due to the inner polystyrene packaging. I was excited to try it, but it ran so hot it burnt the bread before it melted the cheese! It was super-hot and has no temperature control, so it just overcooks everything. I sent it straight back. Not worth the money at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Maybe my new favorite kitchen appliance! This panini maker is awesome! Makes a perfect panini every time! It is very easy to use, and fairly easy to clean. I do wish the plates were removable for a little easier clean up. However the only con I can think of is there is no on/off switch. Its just plug in to turn on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to try this but it fell short of my expectations. It has no printed guide or instructions included, no on & off button. It doesn’t have anything to hold on to on the bottom when opening the lid; It’s too hot to use your fingers. I did like the “grill” marks on my sandwich & how quickly it heats up. I am happy on how compact it is to store away.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Hamilton Beach Panini Press and couldn't wait to try it. It is a compact panini press with none of the useless bells and whistles..and it gets the job done perfectly. The plates fit 2 sandwiches and can be easily cleaned with a wet paper towel. The press fits perfectly standing up in my cabinet. Love it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this panini press! I've made so many sandwiches on this, is so convenient. It heats up super fast, and there are no confusing buttons or dials to mess with. I've even cooked meat on it, and it was perfection. It's kinda like the air fryer version of a stove lol, I would absolutely buy another.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It makes great toasted sandwiches and is very intuitive to use. While it is easy to clean and heats up very quickly, the top plate gets very hot during use making it challenging to safely press tall sandwiches without getting burned. Maybe including a hot glove as a safety measure would be a good idea.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sleek, easy to use panini press is perfect for making quick warm, delicious sandwiches of all types. It is versatile for a variety of sandwich types and the adjustable press is awesome to quickly heat your sandwich to perfection. It is very easy to clean and we love the locking lid to for storage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a basic panini grill. It fits two sandwiches; it only heats to a preset temp on its own, no information on temperature or adjusting or built in timer; also no forgetting to turn it on just plug in and go! I like its simplicity for quick “i don’t know what to do for dinner” solution, greatly improves the grilled cheese/tuna melts and soup dinner to a gourmet level! Especially with homemade bread!! And with no on/off switch I never have to worry about forgetting to turn it on, just plug in and it’s ready to go by the time I’m done assembling the sandwiches. And if I need things to stay hot I can just unplug, rotate the sandwiches and lower the lid to just above the food. It’s compact and easy to find counter space to use although, I wish that it had feet on the back side to stand vertically and be a bit more accommodating of tight storage next to other occasionally used appliances. Clean up is simple, i do have to run my finger in every crevice with a rash to make sure I get everything, but when fully open there zero risk it will fall over backwards on its own and the locking mechanism keeps it from falling down at any position needed. I feel it’s very safe and as someone who burns myself on everything, I feel like it’ll be a long time before an oops happens with this appliance, and it’ll be my own careless fault when it does happen.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little Panini press is a fabulous device! So easy to use and it makes the best Panini! I think everyone who wants to up their game will greatly appreciate it. Shown it off to do many of our friends and several are getting their own. Really having fun sharing recipes with them and eating well!
