Raised ridges leave perfect grill marks and allow fats to drain into the groves. Just the right size for individual servings. Outdoor or indoor use. Compact and easy to store and lift.

Review: For convenient, tasty paninis - I bought this for my boyfriend and he is in love with it. It's well made, cast iron and just the right size. For everyone complaining about food sticking, YOU NEED TO TREAT CAST IRON BEFORE YOU USE IT (google it). After treatment, nothing will stick to this pan and it's perfect for making a decadent panini or quickly making a sample sandwich even tastier. The pan on it's own works great for frying up other things as well, like bacon and eggs.
Review: Great Little Grill Pan - This is the perfect grill pan for one! Love making grilled cheese or Panini. Comes out to perfection. However, my favorite thing to grill in this pan is a portabella mushroom...the large ones. They grill up to perfection and the little press makes them cook perfectly and with grill marks on both sides. The pan comes pre-seasoned and nothing sticks. Clean up is a dream, as well. A soft sponge and some hot & soapy water and you are good to grill again. I love this little pan and pull it out when I'm just cooking for myself and don't feel like using my larger grill pans. Very well made, too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice little pan
*by J***N on June 15, 2011*

This pan is an adorable little pan that makes a very good panini. The only reason I took off a star was due to the fact that the pan handle and top press handle are made of seemingly cheesy plastic. For the price I would expect them to be much nicer. As a bonus though, neither of the handles got hot while cooking so I guess that is the important thing. I normally plan to wear an oven mitt with cast iron. I had to turn my sandwich over to get an even brown but that may be due to my inexperience using it. I may not have let the top get heated thoroughly. I am happy with it and am looking forward to trying lots of different combinations. It is super cute and easily stored.
