Versatile, convenient and terrific,
By Rivergal916 (Sacramento, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick Panini Pan and Press (Kitchen)
I was looking at electric panini grills, but didn't really want another appliance that I would have to store on a shelf or cupboard. I found the Calphalon panini grill pan to be easy to use, clean and store. It goes on the stovetop. I preheat the pan with the stainless steel lid, while I put my sandwich together. Then I brush the pan and bread with olive oil, put the sandwich on the pan and put the lid on top of the sandwich. I let it grill for a few minutes, turn over the sandwich and grill the other side. I get those great grill marks, and the lid helps flatten the sandwich and heats it too. I've also used the pan for salmon fillets, hamburgers, sausages. It does a beautiful job. Cleans up well because it's nonstick! Easy to store as well. Love this pan!

Very versatile pan!,
By Swarmie (Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick Panini Pan and Press (Kitchen)
I purchased this pan last fall and I love it! It not only makes great panini's, it's wonderful to grill chicken breasts, steaks, veggies and even hamburgers! Of course, I originally purchased it to make panini's, but one evening it was raining and we were to have grilled chicken breasts on the outdoor grill. I grilled the chicken in the panini pan on my stovetop and wa-la, it performed wonderfully! The lid is heavy, but the pan isn't, so if you have concerns over its weight especially if you have issues with your hands/wrists as I do, just lift the pan and lid seperately. Enjoy it and experiment!

Great paninis starting with the first,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick Panini Pan and Press (Kitchen)
After reading all the reviews of the other mechanized panini presses my wife and I decided to go with the stove top method and I can say I am impressed. The very first paninis I made this morning were nothing short of spectacular. The paninis browned evenly on both sides (I used extra virgin olive oil or EVOO as Rachel Ray likes to say on the outside of the sandwich), the inside ingredients cooked/melted and the press really keeps the sandwiches squashed together.
The only downside (if you can call it that) is this product can not go into the automatic dishwasher. It comes with several warnings that it must be handwashed. But for such a magnificent cooking utensil I'm more than willing to baby it. If you (like we were) are debating between the more expensive machine presses vs this less costly alternative you won't go wrong with choosing this panini pan & press.
