Works Great & Easy to Clean
Loving this panini maker so far. Ordered it for our Armt shop that is currently deployed to Afghanistan. We needed something to boost our mundane & bland menu. Contemplated a toaster oven, but then ran across this little guy and we all got excited about the possibilities. It arrived a couple of weeks ago (about a week after placing the order) and we have put it to good use. Makes excellent grilled cheese sandwiches and regular ham or turkey sandwiches go a little on the gourmet (as gourmet as we can get in Afghanistan)side when toasted on this guy. We have even grilled Spam on here and it does that with no problem. It is non-stick and a sinch to clean up even after a night of heavy grilled cheese making with some guys overdoing the cheese and it running all over the grill. There should be a protective cover over the space where the knob and the grill are because I have noticed that cheese that goes in there is hard to clean out, but a little elbow grease does the trick and I have no issues with having to grab a thin knife to knock it loose. It does require to be plugged for on and unplugged for off, but I think this is a safety feature with such devices like the Foreman grill. This product seems pretty sturdy as well and that was an issue at 1st because I did not know if the product could hold up to a bunch of rugged Army boys. We shall see if the heavy use toll makes it worthy of our money. If you are debating getting something cheap like this or something way more expensive, give this a try. It’s chrome cover and sturdy handle give it a sleek look and it does not take up that much counter space.Update May 18, 2011: Well, it has been about 4.5 months now and this little guy is still doing an excellent job in our shop. Has been used 24/7 by the guys on both of our 12hr shifts and we have had no problems yet. We love it! It has brought up moral in our shop more than I had ever hoped and made meals/snacks way more enjoyable than before. We might even give this lil guy an award before we leave in a couple of weeks!

Works perfectly
I purchased this after looking at way too many different sandwich press makers. I finally decided on this one and have to say that it works absolutely perfectly for our needs. It will adjust to the height of your sandwich is long as you push the sandwich towards the back and slowly press down. It heats up very quickly and toasts perfectly. After reading so many negative reviews across so many different sandwich pressers, I have to say I’m very pleased with this in a specially with the price. I highly recommend this product.

Great product, great price
Definitely a great product for the price *2 thumbs up*
This was the only thing my daughter wanted for her birthday *shrug* And it’s been one of the best most used gifts ever! So far, this grill has only been used for paninis; but it’s super easy to use & clean. It heats up fast & gives bread beautiful grill marks on medium setting

Buy it!! Small in size if you need to save space.
My husband wanted a panini machine. We don’t have a lot space in our place so I thought this would be a good size for our kitchen. Well. I was right. It is perfect in size. It works great. We tried it as soon as it came. It got here early! We love it. For me it was very easy to clean.

Pretty good for a budget grill
I picked up the Sunbeam CKSBPM5020 to use as a sandwich press. It not only makes hot sandwiches quite well, it also has some features not often found on inexpensive indoor grills:*Adjustable temperature*Indicator lights for power and readiness for cooking*Floating hinge that makes pressing thin and thick sandwiches equally easyThe only drawbacks are that everything, including the accessories, is made from lightweight materials and the grill plates are not detachable. Neither of these take much away from an appliance that I only use a few times a month. If, however, you plan on eating grilled cheese sandwiches or cooking bacon every day, it’s probably better to buy a heavier duty grill.Four stars.———-Update (November 2015): still using this grill, no problems to report.Update (March 2017): no problems to report.Update (April 2019): no problems to report.Update (July 2024): no problems to report (!).

Excellent quality
This is my 2nd purchase of this item. The first one was great except that I dropped it and broke off the handle. At that time I couldn’t find this one available and bought something else with top reviews that turned out to be awful; not possible to full cook a sandwich without burning the edges. I returned that one and then found this one again and am again thrilled with it. It does what it supposed to do and does it right.

Unbeatable at twice the price.
I. Love. This. Panini. Maker. It cooks a burger from frozen inside of 4 minutes – that means it gets HOT, not just warm like another popular grilling apparatus. It makes panini, grilled cheese, and quesadillas like nobody’s business. It has a temp control. It flips open to be a double-size grill. It comes with two drain cuppies and a doll-sized spatula. I bought one 2 years ago, used it almost nightly, washed it in the sink regularly, and dropped it down the stairs a couple dozen times so when it died it owed me absolutely nothing. Get one of these before they wise up and start charging what they should be charging for it!

Kitchen essential
This panini maker works great, heats up quickly, cooks sandwiches fast, and is easy to clean. I bought one years ago and took it with me when I moved out. My parents ended up buying another to replace it, and the newer one actually heats up quicker than the one I bought before.

I bought this because my sister has the same one and it makes sandwiches for lunch have a nice crispy texture and/or nicely melts the cheese inside. I’ve been doing turkey, cranberry and Swiss on sourdough and it’s awesome. Good quality, nice even heating and easy to clean.
