I was excited to use this product when I got it. The recipies worked well and were tasty. I would use the recipes again with another press or when making burgers by hand. I saved the recipe guide. The problem was that I also experienced a silver residue on the burgers after a few uses that made me concerned. I have also thrown it out because of concerns over this unknown residue that definately did not seem like anything healthy.

So the first time I ever used it, it made delicious and juicy burgers. They were wonderful. Then I made egg sandwiches, i was also very pleased. I made burgers again, and the pan was doing fine, and the burgers were still yummy. But cleanup is NOT a breeze. The material the product is made out of stinks! You have to wipe for a while. I have heard complaints about the silver paint coming off, I haven't experienced this yet, but I'm looking out for it.

We registered for this item for our wedding and received it as a shower gift. It is a TERRIBLE machine. The first time we used it it worked fine and made good mini burgers with no problem - but the cleanup was horrendous. I'm not sure what the deal with it is, but it is awful to try to clean the top press. The next 2-3 times we used it to make sliders, our entire burger/chicken/turkey patty was covered on the top in some sort of metallic sheen. I am not sure if it is just the paint coming off on it or what but it is AWFUL. I do NOT recommend this product and am concerned about health issues for anyone who ingests the silver residue. This product should be recalled in my opinion.

You're better offshaping sliders by hand & cooking them in a frying pan.
This device does not cook the sliders on top very well & it's difficult to remove the sliders without wrecking them. On top of that, it's difficult to clean.

Pan not worth the hastle and low quality.
I used a couple of times but cleanup is a downer and have found that making sliders for my family of 7 is better with one pan on stove and a cast iron skillet pre heated in the oven... put meat balls in stove top non stick or not skillet...pull out pre heated skillet (close to same size stove top pan), plop it on top and press for patties... quick and better use of space and energy.
Didn't get grill marks from this pan anyway.

Have used it several times with no problems. I followed the instructions and it met with its advertising. I did find if you want to have nice little hambergers it is better to use the lowest fat lean meat. The more fat in the meat the hambergers turn into more of a ball shape instead of pattie shaped.
I gave it only a 4 because the pan doesn't have a good non-stick coating as I would of liked it to have.

This is a great slider pan. I find the recipes easy and love how you can put it in the dishwasher. It was packaged well and came fast. Thanks!

The first time I used this it worked great! After that they kept burning and I could not get it clean! Ended up throwing it away! Don't bother!!!!

I paid 25 bucks for this thing when it came out. A testimonial to the selling talent of the late Billy mays. He was great, but this is crap. Used once, it made dry shrunken burgers. much better to just cook small burgers in a pan.
