I bought the Breville Panini Press for my daughter,she was going to uni and particularly requested I buy her a sandwich toaster. I found this press and bought it,for her. Before she went away we tried it! It is probably more suited to a family than a single girl, but she is sharing with a lot of other girls so we put it out on the counter for them all to try. I used it for the family before she went away. It makes amazing toasties and paninis, it is easy to clean. It is quick and although it takes up room on the counter it can have another appliance placed on top until it is needed.
I did want to try cooking my home-made naan bread in it, but I didn'tgetround to it. I usually use the grill and a baking tray, maybe if I didn't put down the lid it would work! Well worth the money. Lovely snacks in a trice.
Try the lowfat sprays instead of buttering the outside of the taostie. Tastes much better with butter though!
