4 stars. I recently got the LoveTronix sandwich press, and it’s been a big help when I'm trying to get things together in the morning--get kids fed and off to school. It cooks sandwiches and waffles quickly and evenly without issues.. There's an automatic temperature control that helps make things more eveny grilled, and the rotating system really helps too. Cleanup is easy because of the nonstick plates--stuck food comes right off. The one negative--after several months of use, I’ve noticed some of the non-stick coating peeling off. It's a bit disappointing, but it still works well overall. . Overall, it's been a great addition to the kitchen, just wish the coating held up a bit better.

This little panini press works pretty well. If your sandwich is very thick, it can be a bit tricky to not make it slide when putting the press down though. Overall, it does quick and easy work. Especially good at making a bunch of grilled cheese sandwiches quickly.

Good size heating surface. This looks and works very well. It is big when using, but small enough to tuck away in a cupboard.I love getting an even toast!

I've been having a blast making every kind of panini I can think of since this press arrived. It makes a perfect sandwich every time. It's also great as a grill for all kinds of other items. I've warmed tortillas, pressed burritos, made breakfast, and more. The non-stick plates are great and easy to clean.

I rarely give a product 5 stars, but I would be lying if I didn't give this the full 5! This MOI Panini Press Grill & Sandwich Maker is a sanity saver when you have a large family, sons in law, grandchildren and teenager extensions (aka friends) that love your house as much as their own and a bunch of grandchildren running around... - oh, and I can't forget our little triplets who are on getting ready to turn 9... I honestly think this is the most-used appliance in my kitchen! Of course, it makes fantastic paninis – perfectly toasted and grilled every time. But what really surprised me is how many things I use it for and how OFTEN I am using it.I've used it to grill all kinds of veggies, and they come out with those beautiful grill marks and a delicious smoky flavor. It's also great for cooking chicken or burgers right on the countertop. I never use our toaster anymore, because this press toasts bread beautifully, and it's perfect for warming tortillas or getting hamburger and hot dog buns nice and crispy for those that like it that way.I have a Neice that was telling me about hers, so I decided to be brave and try breakfast on it as well and she was not wrong! Now I use it for pancakes, hashbrowns, eggs – it cooks everything -(except waffles. My husband requests a waffle plate.) It heats up quickly and evenly, and the 180° opening makes it super easy to flip things over. Plus, cleanup is nothing but a wipe with the paper towel or heating it up and pouring a bit of water on it then wiping it with a paper towel and it is perfectly clean every time because the plates are nonstick. I do wash the drip tray often - by hand. never in the dishwasher. I am not sure if it is dishwasher safe and I don't want to learn it isn't.Honestly, this little bugger is so convenient that I have not found a place to call "putting it away" since it came. I have put my toaster away though, and this has pretty much taken up the space I thought I was gaining there. This is one of those kitchen appliances that can do it all, I can't recommend it enough.

I really liked that this was a 3 in 1 for multiple uses. I was thinking great! I can get rid of the waffle iron and have one grill that does it all.....I found it to fall a tad short in my expectations. It does get hot quickly and the trays are easy to pop in and out with the release buttons. The top tray can be tricky to get off at times but I found that, if you press in and up on the tray, then slide the release button, it will generally come off. I'm very impressed with the non-stick surface. Everything just slid right off the plates without using any grease or butter "for those who are watching their diet". Although, if you want a crispy sandwich I would suggest using a little grease/butter which is what I prefer. The first sandwich maker I received had an issue with browning evenly. The bottom would be a lot darker by the time I could get the top to brown. I contacted the company and they sent me another one. This one is definitely better but I still find the top takes slightly longer to brown, just not as extreme as the first one. I've tried all 3 plates and found that the grill plates are the best, the pocket style sandwich plates comes in second and the waffle plates last. It just can't seem to make a good waffle? And I've tried two different types of batter thinking that was the problem? Nope! Both batters turned out the same......the top of the waffle was still lighter than the bottom and with less indentions and no crispy outside. I just don't think this one is up to par for use with batters? So, if you just want it to make paninis or pocket style sandwiches, you'll love it. Otherwise, look for something else. I do give the company 5 stars for quick communications and replacement of the item, and I think with a little tweaking it could be a 5 star 3 in 1 sandwich maker if they could fix that one issue.
