All-Clad Panini Pan with Press Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have nothing but praise for this pan. I have been using it 4-5 times per week since I purchased it.
The pan heats quickly and evenly and gives that perfect grilled crust to everything I have tried. It did take some practice to get the temperature and timing down - I heat the press on another burner at 9/10 and the pan at about a 4/10. That gives me the perfect browning to both sides while also allowing enough time for the sandwich to get hot throughout. All Clad gives some advice on timing and procedure, but I think my system works better. Be aware, the handle of the pan stays cool but the press handle can get hot.
The listing does not say, but the press is cast iron and quite heavy. Cleanup of the press and pan is easy. The non-stick of the pan works well and the cast iron cleans up easily (I always butter or oil what I am grilling, so ymmv).
I now get perfect sandwiches every time, and never have to worry about all the things that can go wrong with an electric panini press. I am sure this pan will give me many years of great service.

Crafted of hard anodized aluminum, this two-piece Panini press includes a thick, nonstick pan that provides fast, even heat distribution. The heavy-duty press features a generous loop handle for adding pressure on top, leaving food with tasty, blackened grill marks. Working much like an outdoor grill only faster, it not only gives sandwiches a delicious crunch and an even browning, but the cookware also nicely grills meats, veggies, and fish. Its polished stainless-steel handle is secured to the pan by stainless-steel rivets for strength, rounded on the bottom for comfort, and holed in the end for hanging on a hook or peg when not in use. Both the lid's handle and the pan's long handle stay cool on the stovetop and won't be harmed by an oven's heat. The cookware should be washed by hand, which takes little effort due to its nonstick grill. The Panini pan measures 8-3/8 by 10-3/8 inches with the press measuring 8 by 10 inches. Both pieces covered by a limited lifetime warranty.
