The Hamilton Beach Panini Press & Gourmet Sandwich Maker brings restaurant-quality results to your kitchen with dual heated nonstick plates that cook both sides simultaneously. Create everything from classic paninis and quesadillas to personal pizzas and open-face sandwiches with the versatile 10" x 8" cooking surface. The floating top plate accommodates thicker items like Reubens, while ribbed plates add authentic grill marks, and a convenient ready light lets you know when it's preheated. PFAS-free ceramic nonstick plates wipe clean effortlessly, and the compact storage latch keeps your appliance neatly stored upright in any cabinet or drawer.
