We have never owned a waffle or panini maker, so I did some research of different types and brands and finally decided to try this Yedi Total Package. I liked the fact that it came with different types of grill plates that were easily interchangeable and allowed for cooking/grilling on a flat surface, with ridges and waffles. I also thought the lay flat feature was key to have in order to cook on two surfaces at times, such as for pancakes. The price was also very reasonable compared to other brands and types of grill machines, and the extras such as the egg rings and tongs just made it even more attractive. The Yedi also had a very professional look and the silver/black would fit great with all of my other counter appliances.
I received the grill about 2 weeks ago and have been thrilled with the purchase so far. Learning how to use it was a breeze, as is cleanup of the plates. The grill pre-heats very quickly and maintains a steady temperature throughout cooking. I of course had to try waffles first, and they came out amazing. Perfect browning on both sides, great consistency, and the kids loved them. Not only that, but they were done in 3 minutes, quicker than warming up a frozen waffle from the freezer!
Next up we tried potato pancakes, which were amazing. Being able to press down from the top gave both sides perfect crunch, and also helped push out some of the oil. This was so much better than frying these in a pan of oil.
Overall I am very happy with my purchase and am looking forward to using this for all types of cooking needs.
