Engineered for consistent throughput and repeatable results, this commercial panini grill delivers controlled heat, durable cooking surfaces, and workflow-friendly features ideal for busy kitchens and foodservice operations. The unit accepts 208/240v single-phase power and draws 30 amps to sustain temperatures across a 28" width, enabling continuous sandwich production without temperature sag. Operators benefit from a low-profile footprint and a cast stainless exterior that resists corrosion and simplifies routine cleaning.

#@@# Top And Bottom Plates#@#
Grooved cast iron plates on both top and bottom provide uniform contact for even browning and defined grill marks across each sandwich. The dual plate configuration transfers heat efficiently and reduces cook time while maintaining a consistent product appearance.
#@@# Wide Cooking Surface#@#
A 28-inch overall width yields 21-to-28-inch usable cooking space that accommodates multiple sandwiches per cycle, increasing throughput during peak service periods. The larger surface reduces batch counts and shortens total cooking time per shift.
#@@# Precise Temperature Control#@#
An analog thermostat covers a 175–550°F range for flexible applications from light to heavy searing. Supplementary digital timer control enforces consistent hold times, enabling staff to repeat recipes with minimal training variance.
#@@# Counterbalance Hinge System#@#
A counterbalance hinge stabilizes the top plate and compensates for variable sandwich heights, preserving even pressure and preventing product squash. Operators gain faster load-and-release cycles and reduced manual adjustments during service.
#@@# Serviceable Grease Management#@#
A removable grease drawer collects excess oils and crumbs for straightforward emptying and sanitary maintenance. This feature reduces downtime for cleaning and helps maintain consistent heat transfer across the plates.
