Goodies: large plate (several paninis at a time), fast warm (control) and very fast heating paninis (we must press the panini and tighten the screw while cooking to browned), cleaning very easy with a damp cloth once the cooled plates (even if the plate does not disassemble it does not catch) and grease collector, no fumes (for indoors) Can be used for hamburger, toasted sandwiches ... friendly. Cons: The power is not adjustable but 2000 W is the most powerful that I found and simply monitor 2mn cooking. Safety: the machine becomes hot (children!). Too bad there have no plates for waffles ... but I knew. I'm looking I can not find! Really pleased for the price.
