Cuisinart lets customers grill all their favorites-steaks, burgers, chicken, veggies, potatoes, etc.-rain or shine. The Griddler Express Contact Grill sits right on the kitchen counter, with extra-large top and bottom grill surfaces and a cup to catch excess fat. A professional-style floating hinge precisely positions the top plate to ensure both sides of foods, including the popular panini sandwiches, are always evenly grill. Nonstick plates are easy to clean and require little or no oil. Bigger, easier and healthier...what more could you ask for!
Customer Reviews
Love this grill! (2010-03-06)
I've tried different table top grills in the past and have never really been impressed, this grill however has absolutely won me over. I use it all the time to make paninis and grilled cheese sandwiches for my little one. ( So much easier and healthier than pan grilling them in butter) We often enjoy eating steak or chicken salads and this grill makes it so easy to grill the amount of steak or chicken we need. This grill heats quickly and even though the grill plates are not removeable it is still relatively easy to clean.

LOVE IT! (2010-02-17)
I was looking for a panini maker and found heaven. I really love this thing! Am ready to buy one for my daughter for her first apartment.
Excellent grill!! (2010-02-11)
I have had two George Foreman grills in the past and recently ordered the Curisinart GR-2 express grill...it is by far the better product in all areas. It heats/cooks evenly and quickly, one of the nicer features of this product is the ability to regulate the heat temp. I prefer the non-removable heating plates for just this reason. Clean up is not a problem if you immediately place a few damp/wet paper towels on the grill after cooking. The steaming effect helps aid in the clean up process. I highly recommend this product.
Terrific Purchase! (2009-10-15)
My husband loves his panini maker! Leftovers can easily be incoperated into a tasty sandwich! With time, we will explore other creations using the Cuisinart Griddler Express.
Works well, cleans up well with patience (2009-10-05)
This press has worked well for us, allowing us to make incredibly crisp and fresh sandwiches of many types. Crumbs and melted cheese that drip onto the surface seemed to come off easily once the press cools. If you just place a wet, soapy washcloth in the press after it has cooled and allow it to sit for 10-20 minutes, even the stickiest stuff seems to come out very well. We have not used it much as a grill for meats (just chicken & shrimp) so perhaps really sticky baked on BBQ sauce might be an issue, but it has not been one for us. A great practical resource with many tasty panini recipes (both sandwiches and breads) that work well in this press is Panini Express: 70 Delicious Recipes Hot Off the Press.
