I like mine and use it a lot. I haven't used any other panini pans to compare it too, though. The one thing I've had trouble with is sticking, if the bread is not firm enough, but I've solved that by using foil sprayed with non-stick spray. I use the pan for quesedillas too.

Hi Jen,
Could you give me your email address so I can ask you a bunch more little questions about the pan and panini's in general? I got the pan with no instructions so I have a lot of little questions like moisture, buttering the bread before cooking, etc. My address is haist2@comcast.net. Thanks in advance.
