Aigostar Sandwich Toaster 2000W Toastie Maker, Deep Fill Panini Press with Improved Non-Stick Coating, 180° Flat Open Large Grill, Adjustable Temperature Control, Drip Tray, Stainless Steel - Samson

Powerful, Versatile, and Toastie Heaven!Absolutely love this sandwich press — it heats up quickly, cooks evenly, and the 2000W power gives a proper crunch to your toasties and paninis. Plenty of space for deep-fill sandwiches, and it handles burgers and veggies just as well.The adjustable temperature control is a great feature, and the fact it opens flat to double as a grill is a bonus I didn’t realise I needed! Non-stick coating makes cleaning up easy, and the drip tray catches the mess.Feels sturdy, looks smart on the counter, and has quickly become a daily-use bit of kit in my kitchen.

Having tried two other types of panini press! I'm very happy with this one.The first one was large, but stopped working after a week, and was returned.The next was the folding George Foreman one. That was well made, but I found it too small and it was burning the toasties, whilst the insides were still cool.I needed a large one with an adjustable thermostat.This one makes the best toasties I've ever had. That is just using normal white bread, cheese and chillies.It does the panini bread absolutely spot on.I have cooked pork chops on it.They would have been done before the patatos! So I turned the heat down.Lovely job.Easy to clean.I usually give the hot plates a wipe with a damp cloth.Only drawback is the ridiculously short lead.As with all these types of items!Keep the original packaging (everything).For 12 months.They can fail, or you may not like it and want to return it.But I'm very happy with this one.

I bought this toastie to replace a much smaller one and it is an absolute joy to use. Toasted sandwiches come out beautifully done with the filling cooked just right. It is easy to clean. I have yet to use it as an open griddle but have no reason to suppose this will be great too.

This is the worst ever product, it’s nit worth selling because it’s a ripoff.. didn’t even last a MONTH!! Can’t return for refund!! Who ever is reading this should stay clear of this product, too expensive for a one month use .. used a couple of times within a month and it’s not heating up anymore.. what a shame that Amazon should allow this nonsense to be on their platform..

Came well packaged, just what I wanted, this item is great because you have different plates to do different dishes and very easy to clean, I am very happy with it, Excellent. So will recommend.

Well, what can I say for this money, it's great. I bought it for eggs, I never fried it, but I think it's possible.

I liked the idea that it is flat and nonstick. It worked well with our cheese sandwich. I did not try using it for cooking steak or chicken as describe in the listing. I was hoping that the plate are removable for better cleaning. But we managed to clean them easily. It is not too hot just enough to provide good temperature for toasting the bread. I like the design that the handle has a lock on it who’s make it easy to use you do not need to keep on holding the cover.

I bought the press for two reasons. I love toasted sandwiches and paninis, and I figured it would help me live healthier.I think I can sum up in one sentence, but for the sake of a thorough review I will elaborate a bit .My one sentence, "I don't think it gets hot enough"The recovery rate of the elements in the unit I think need some attention. Recovery rate, of course is how fast they reheat when loaded with cold food. Loaded does not mean I fill the hotplates with food, its a generic term for placing a quantity of food on it. Whilst initially hot enough to sear meats, it cannot recover heat fast enough to ensure that the meats do not end up in a pool of liquid, and therefore stewing rather than sizzling as it should. It's a bit better when used open, as a double grill, but that does make the cooking process slower.Lets now look at its ability to cook dry foods, such as paninis and sandwiches. Again, the elements don;t seem to recover fast enough, but as a panini or sandwich press it is quite good.So, I'm not saying do not buy this item, as it works OK, just not as well as I , personally, expected.I do try to be totally honest with my reviews, and base them on my personal experiences with purchases. I gave the grill 4 stars as it does mostly what it says on the box. For the price its a cost effective purchase.
