I am just beginning to explore uses for this appliance.  The panini sandwiches are great.  Perfectly toasted and delicious.  Cooking hamburgers works similarly to my old George Forman grill but with less clean up.  My only disappointment is trying to fry or scramble eggs. The plates are slightly tilted, so the eggs “run”.   This appliance is easy to use, easy to clean, and a great addition to my kitchen.
