DASH Mini Maker Portable Grill Machine + Panini Press for 4" Burgers, Sliders, Sandwiches, Chicken + Other On the Go Breakfast, Lunch, or Snacks with Recipe Guide - Red

I bought this to keep in the office and make my cheese melts for lunch. It's a perfect size, easy to clean and easy to use. I have used it to make hot sandwiches at work. Use cold cuts and cheese on a tortilla and fold it and grill it, perfect easy and delicious.

This is very small, but perfect for one person. I've used it for burger patties that I size myself, not pre-shaped so that it will fit. Also, for small breakfast patties, grilled cheese with firm bread, cut to size, or English muffin. Also good for panini style sandwich with small thin chicken cutlet, and firm bread cut to size. Can't get a lot of ingredients on there, but otherwise handy to use. The recipe included for grilled pineapple with cinnamon and nutmeg is very good. I've also found it easy to clean.

I love this little grill! It's perfect for cooking a hamburger patty or chicken strips for a salad. Cooks fast and taste great. Great for cooking for one. Be aware clean up is the only drawback but for me I would still recommend it.

OK, I mainly bought this because it was cute. And I have a Dash mini rice cooker that is terrific for use in my travel trailer (I'm cooking for two.) In testing the panini press, I tried three tests: 1. Reheat a leftover piece of a muffuletta sandwich: While this fat sandwich is admittedly way too thick for the press, it did a credible job of heating the sandwich through and crisping the bread, the bottom of which had become rather soggy. 2. "Taco" with ricotta, mozzarella and marinara. This was obviously not the best use for this machine, or probably any panini press for that matter. The ricotta melted and oozed out with the marinara before the tortilla was adequately toasted. I'd consider this one a fail. 3. "Quesadilla" with chicken, poblano, and jack cheese. This one came out a little better since the ingredients didn't start out liquid, but again the cheese melted and oozed out before the tortilla was as toasty as I would have liked it. I'm going to assume that generally, this machine isn't great for toasting stuffed tortillas. SUMMARY: I will try a few more tests before giving up, but I'm not sure how much I'll really use this machine. The capacity is really small, so heating up a small sandwich for 1 is probably the optimal use for me. I wouldn't use it to cook burgers or meat or eggs--I'd always use another method for those applications. And if I need to heat up two sandwiches, I'd probably use the stove top or oven so they are done at the same time. I didn't find the functionality great enough to get a second one in order to heat two sandwiches simultaneously. I also did not find it all that easy to clean anything that oozed off the non-stick surface.

After receiving Dash waffle iron as a gift I started waffling everything. Eggs, hash browns, left over mashed potatoes, pizza, hamburger. It has become a running joke now to say "ya I can waffle that" or #WaffleLife. The last two in the list of my waffle adventures made me think having a flat plate version would be good (they got stuck more than things I tried). I was so happy to find one just like my waffle iron made by the same company! It has worked great! We made calzones in it, grilled cheese, eggs of course. It's been a great addition. One of the greatest things about these is their small and fast to use in the kids are able to manage them without much help. Better than pulling out a pan and turning on the gas stove for peace of mind. Definitely have to be right there with them on that. A for sure no regrets purchase. Also I've noticed it cooks really even which is not something I could say about every waffle iron I've used.

I paid for a NEW grill but received a DIRTY, USED grill. This was my Mother's Day present to myself. GRRRRRRRR! If I was going to gift this to someone else, I would have returned it. It obviously came from the reduced in price, returned pile. I DID NOT get a reduced price, but I paid FULL price. I have many Dash products (which I love) so I know how absolutely delightful Dash packaging can be. I have always been impressed. This grill came in a damaged box. The grill was greasy, the cord was unwrapped and the electrical prongs did not come with that little plastic protector thingy on them. There was no plastic bag protecting the grill, and the grill was just jammed in the beaten up box. HOWEVER, returning things to Amazon is somewhat of a pain even though I do congratulate them on making it fairly easy and smooth under the circumstances. So, I swallowed my irritation and decided to clean up this little grill (it was all greasy) and give it a go. It heated up like a champ and grilled my small sandwich beautifully. I love the char lines. I like this little grill very much and am glad to add it to my small collection of Dash appliances. I have a tiny kitchen and I find it easier to store these great Dash gems in their boxes so they can stack on top of each other. So, I will put put this cute little pink grill back in its beat up box, and store it with its Dash family. BTW, the recipe book and Foodie paper were also in the box, but they, too, had been just crammed in the damaged box and were bent up. Sigh.

I use this thing all the time for sandwiches, rolls, bread, you name it. It has really helped me improve my eating

Had to rewrite review after trying. First if all - it is tiny. Not as it looks on the Web More like a kid's toy. Not big enough even for a small bun except slider. Does not really grill. Takes too long. I bought the best hamburger and....got the petrified pierce of meat. The only good thing- it is so small that you can put jt in your pocket)). Do not fall onto cheap price. Hamburger tastes like made from MUMMY: Toast- not better. Wasted $ and good meat. Portion so tiny... Plus cleaning for this tiny portions is a headache. NOT WORTH EVEN 12 BUCKS

Excelente, fácil de usar, se limpia fácilmente, calienta muy rápido y se puede hacer cualquier tipo de hamburguesa con él.

La amooooo, va conmigo a todos lados, siempre me saca de apuros, estoy en dieta keto y puedo hacer mis porciones pequeñas y especiales para mi. Le quitaría el olor a plástico de los primeros usos, tengo las 3

I wasn't sure if I'd like this but it's one of my favourite appliances. I bought the grill instead of the waffle maker (looked too hard to clean) or the griddle (which looked too plain) and I'm glad I did. I think the grill lines help food cook quicker and more thoroughly and it's fairly easy to keep clean. I mostly have used it for cooking omelets and recently to make a single cookie using cookie dough. Yum to both! Having a warm cookie on a cold day is so comforting. Like some people have said, it's very small but it's perfect for one egg or one cookie and doesn't take up much space in the cupboard. It heats up quickly and it's easy to check if the food is done. You have to stand and watch it since there's no dinger to tell you when it's done. The cord is a nice length. I was able to buy mine for under $10 since the packaging was damaged. The grill was in new condition, not even a scratch.

Me gusto su tamaño, fácil de usar y limpiar.

My wife was finding it difficult to make good breakfast for her before work and get me daughter ready for school every morning. She found the regular size grill too much of work to heat up burger patties + the regular size grill would press a single burger too much. One day she just said that "I wish there was small little baby grill for a single burger" I just searched for one on Amazon and found this. It was good price, so ordered one. It is magical. My wife has been using it everyday since we got it. It has the perfect size, and its capable of cooking frozen burgers (no overnight thawing). dr. praeger's vegan patties fits best. I have also cooked Beyond meat patties (frozen) and it grills with ease. It's easy to clean and store as well. The only feature missing is a cook timer, so I can put the Burgers in, set a timer and do other thing without worrying about over cooking. I solved that issue with plugging it into a wifi wall socket. I hope it keeps on working as is.
