Enjoy the delicious taste of grilled foods all year long with this easy-to-use countertop appliance. The versatile unit functions as a grill, griddle, and panini maker thanks to its three cooking positions--fixed, float, or open flat--and three removable plates, which consist of an upper grill plate, a lower grill plate, and a lower griddle plate. As an open griddle, the appliance can cook up eggs, pancakes, and hash browns; insert the grill plates for cooking bacon, hamburgers, or fresh summer vegetables. Its floating hinge system automatically adjusts to the thickness of food for perfectly grilled panini sandwiches or thick steaks. The grill plates come with a ribbed design that helps grease drain away from food for healthier results, and all the plates provide a nonstick coating to ensure effortless food release and quick cleanup by hand or in the dishwasher. Other highlights include adjustable heat up to 450 degrees F, a lockable upper plate for heat without touching the food, a 30-minute timer, a power-on indicator and ready light, a removable drip drawer, and a storage drawer for holding an unused grill plate. Instructions and a dual-sided cleaning scraper come included. With its attractive chrome-plated housing, the 1500-watt UL-listed grill and panini maker measures approximately 13-3/4 by 13-1/2 by 7 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
