Worked for a while
We have been using the panini maker every day. It heats up very well and leaves no cold spots. I am very happy with my purchase.
Update: Panini maker died 3 weeks later. Haier offered to replace but I just threw it out and bought a Cuisinart which I truly love!

Excellent for the price, September 8, 2007
I bought this grill at our local grocery store on special. I've wanted a panini maker for a long time and researched the one's out there. Either I rejected them because of the reviews or they didn't have all the features I wanted and the price was high.
The Haier 1400BSS doesn't have all the bells and whistles I wanted (removeable plates, interchangeable plates, temp control on both sides, etc.), but it does grill evenly on both sides and makes wonderful sandwiches. For the price, this is an excellent grill. I'll use it until it dies and keep saving for a professional model.
This unit does have the floating head (top), floating hinge lock, temperature dial, power and ready to cook lights, a drip tray that attaches (great), and a cleaning tool. It DID NOT come with any recipes.
The panini grill has a slight grill incline so the fats and juices run off. It can be used for cooking meats and veggies too. It's real easy to clean. Make sure you use cooking spray before making a sandwich and clean between uses.
I find that cleaning the unit just after making a sandwich, when the grill is still hot, is the easiest. Just use a damp sponge and run it up and down the grill on both sides. Then take a wet paper towel and go over it. BE CAREFUL the plates are real hot.
I've had mine for a week now and have used it 6 out of 7 days. Some days I've used it twice. LOVE IT. Takes a bit to get use to where the temp knob needs to be but with a little practice, you'll find the right spot. I put mine 3/4 of the way and it works like a charm. Haven't tried meat or veggies yet so those might differ.
The only non-positive things I can say about the grill is I think the floating head could be hinged more centered. The instruction book could give tips and suggestions too plus some RECIPES.
Hope you get one. I'm picking some up for Christmas presents. Happy Grilling.

Love It!, February 5, 2009
This review is from: Haier HPG1400BSS Professional Panini Maker (Kitchen)
Bought this a month ago- took a few weeks to get from amazon (told it was back-ordered a few days after I ordered). Anyway- worth the wate. Love it! Plenty big for 3-4 sandwiches (adult size). Also love that it has adjustable temp setting. Amazing how much more enjoyable a hot sandwich is than a cold one- especially in these winter months.

Great sandwich maker, I use it at least two times a week and it works beautiful. I'm extremely happy with the quality of the machine as well as the price; it exceeded my expectations.

This thing is great., January 10, 2010
This review is from: Haier HPG1400BSS Professional Panini Maker (Kitchen)
If you want to eat panini all the time, get this. We cannot seem to stop eating panini. This is a wonderful product. It heats our panini evenly, and there seems to be no end to how creative you can get with panini. The price was very low for such a wonderful addition to our collection of kitchen gadgets. You can spend a lot more, but why. This could not be outdone. I bought this under protest from my wife, but she loves it.

Given as a gift, December 30, 2009
This review is from: Haier HPG1400BSS Professional Panini Maker (Kitchen)
I bought this as Christmas gifts. Both persons I gave it to loved the item. They use it for everything from the intended use to cooking shrimp on skewers to grilling veggies. Size is great for a family of 4.

I can't really give a review of the product itself as I bought this as a gift. But the shipping and costs were great.

not worth it, January 13, 2010
This review is from: Haier HPG1400BSS Professional Panini Maker (Kitchen)
I received this as a gift and found it unimpressive and cheaply made. I can get the same results by grilling over a stove-top and placing a second pan on the sandwich to weigh it down. Easier clean up that way, too. We returned immediately.
