Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart GR-4 Griddler
Customer Review: A great appliance that is very functional!
Summary: 4 Stars
First off this is the first griddler/pannini press I have ever owned and I am not any a gourmet. I bought this griddler/pannini press for my wife because she loves eating pannini sandwiches. We have had it only for a month and to date have not made any pannini sandwiches but have used it as an indoor grill (steaks, hamburgers, vegetables, etc.) We have been very satisfied with the product. It heats up in a reasonable amount of time, stays hot, cooks the food very quickly and clean up is a breeze. The non-stick plates are excellent and removable for easy clean up. One issue in the griddle/pannini mode when you fold back the top plate to handle the food and it is covered by oil or grease it does drip off the bottom (hinge edge) on to the cord and counter. We addressed this issue by "molding" paper towels across this area to collect the drippings. The press handle stays cool during cooking and it takes ~20-30 minutes for the plates to cool down sufficiently to be handled for washing. The appliance appears to be well built and sturdy but lightweight and compact enough for storage. One thing I personally don't like are the unattached drip cups which of course I have already knocked over spilling grease all over the place. But from looking at the various brands out there this seems to be a fairly common set up. The price is even lower now so if you are in the market for one right now I feel this is a good deal.
