George Foreman PN2PC180 Panini Maker

Overall, this model is a step up from my last George Foreman Grill. This is actually the third George Foreman Grill that I have purchased.

First, ignore the initial smell that you get when you first use it. This will go away and is probably a result of packaging.

Grill Plates: These are an improvement over the coating on the last model I have. They are lighter and and coated better and easier to clean. I did NOT have to use cooking spray on them such as Pam. Try not using cooking spray and you'll see that the results are good.

Temperature: This model does not have a temp. gauge. That would be a worthy additional feature but not absolutely necessary. However, it does take 7 to 10 minutes to really warm up for cooking. And, although the temp dial it does have goes from low to high, I only use High (all the way) because that is the only way to get it to heat up enough to cook things.

Panini Functionality: I must say that after some initial skepticism I really do like its ability to produce a delectable panini product. I have tried this with different breads and content and it always produces a welcome result. The ability to hold down the plates with the handle also proves useful in cooking situations. For instance, if I note that a salmon fillet is JUST not at the level of doneness I like I hold the handle down for a few seconds and "voila", its perfectly done.

Clean Up: Again, these grill plates, due to their coating, are much easier to clean. In fact, I don't bother to put them in the dishwasher because a) in the past I believe that doing so diminishes the coating's effectiveness over time and b) you can easily clean them with a sponge after they cool.

One last thing is that this model's foot print is better because it is not as wide as my last model but it seems to retain the same footprint for grilling.

I would say that this is a buy when you compare its features, how it performs and for the price. Other similar models are more expensive. Enjoy!

I love the George Foreman Grill. Its the perfect size for making two or three meat cuts all at once. The one thing i was dissapointed in is that I thought it came with various plates and it just came with the one set of plates. Other than Im in love. The temperaturew control is a great feature. The removable plates make it a breeze to clean. The hidden grease holder is great cause you dont loose it. And the option to incline or not the grill also makes it more versatile.

This grill is perfect for me because the plates are removable so it is easy to clean, it has temperature control and it allows me to grill thick food (like bone-in chicken leg quarters). I like it so much and highly recommend it.

I used it once as a panini maker and had a hard time melting the cheese. The other times I used it were for making turkey burgers. It has a hard time getting rid of all the liquid.
