Mine sits on top of the Fridge Freezer unused.

I think I once used it for Griddled Aubergines once but they stuck to it then the oil proceeded to burn and stink the house out..
It’s been there since (about 9yrs)

I’m not sure what problems it solves, that can’t also be achieved with a frying pan or grill.

Panninis..

When I rule the world, there will be a compulsory education campaign so that everyone knows that “panini” is the plural of “panino”.

those of you burning/finding them cold….

you have found the temperature dial right ?

mines has 2 temperature dials – one for each plate.

also if you grab a papertowel and wipe it before it cools down its much much much easier to clean than a frying pan.

I think that is the issue, the cheaper ones (the one we have) don’t have temp control, it is on or off.

That! Even in a house full of useless student types we still used the cooker rather than the george formby.

Did nearly all my ‘cooking’ on one when I was a student. Mostly burgers, bacon, sausages.
Used to fill the Foreman with meat and put some waffles in the toaster 🙂 (works but not good for the toaster)

French toast works well & solves the running egg problem.

Slight tangent – ever seen what he called his children?
