A ham and cheese or tuna sandwich can be pretty boring. Take your classic cold sandwiches to the next level with the Panini Press. Who wouldn’t like a hot toasty sandwich with melted cheese and appetizing grill marks? Host a make-your-own panini party for an easy entertaining idea. Have picky eaters at home? Offer a variety of options, and let kids create their own idea of a perfect sandwich. Parents can have their own version for a meal that makes everyone happy.

Whether it’s a grilled vegetable sandwich on whole grain bread or a decadent three-cheese sandwich on white bread, the choices are endless. Thanks to an adjustable lid, this Panini Press will accommodate the thinnest slices as well as thick slices of artisan bread. Sandwich rolls, English muffins, pita bread, tortillas, and wraps are delicious alternatives to sliced bread. Café or restaurant panini sandwiches can be expensive and you may not know what ingredients are being used. The Panini Press is perfect for anyone who needs a fast, easy meal that can be customized to satisfy any taste.

Choose from upright or horizontal storage, a thoughtful feature for the space-efficient kitchen. Two indicator lights signal power and preheating.

Use vegetable cooking spray for convenient, stick-free cooking. Or if you prefer, brush cooking surfaces with vegetable oil before preheating. Use plastic utensils on the nonstick cooking surfaces. Thicker sandwiches may shift when being pressed. Use a plastic spatula to reposition. Place sandwich in center of press. When a recipe calls for fruit, lock the cover in place above the fruit so that it heats but does not contact the fruit. There is no need to press down on the handle. The weight of the cover will grill the top of the sandwich. Cleanup is easy. Let panini press cool down. Wipe cooking surfaces with damp paper towel or dish cloth.
