"We swapped out a grooved top and bottom for this grooved top and smooth bottom grill. it still allows us to press paninis, but now allows for more frying surface for our burgers, veggies, etc that don't do well on a grooved bottom. Couldn't be happier!"
The WDG250T features a 14 1/2" x 11" cooking surface made of a ribbed top cast iron plate and a flat bottom cast iron plate that heat evenly. The ribbed plate leaves enticing grill marks that enhance a sandwich's aesthetic appeal while simultaneously giving the bread an irresistible crispness.

Maintain precise control of your press's cooking temperatures with an adjustable thermostat that goes up to 570 degrees Fahrenheit.
Intuitive Controls
It features an On / Off power switch, adjustable temperature dial, and ready indicator light, so all your employees will be able to use the unit.
Programmable Timer
Thanks to the built-in timer, your employees can add a sandwich to the grill, turn it on, and leave it until the buzzer goes off.
Auto Balancing
The Waring WDG250T panini grill's top plate features a hinged, auto-balancing design that accommodates foods up to 3" thick. With this unit's design, you'll ensure that every sandwich comes out evenly pressed.
Included Drip Tray
A built-in drip tray, which is removable, catches excess liquid and eases the task of cleanup when fulfilling orders in a short timeframe.
Adjustable Feet
The non-slip feet keep the unit in place, and the back two are adjustable, which allows you to accommodate grease drainage.
Durable Construction

My initial panini press was a used model, which prompted me to purchase a new one of higher quality. A neighboring sandwich shop highly recommended this specific model that they loved. I believed that a flat-bottom grill would be easier to clean. Consequently, I chose to buy this particular model.
Upon opening it and attempting to make several paninis, I was disappointed to find that each one browned unevenly. The top plate descended at a steep angle, heating only the back portion of the panini. As a result, the back burned while the front remained nearly untouched. When I contacted the webstaurant to request a return, they suggested some tweaks that did not work and I was informed that they do not accept returns on used items, which I find completely unreasonable.
To my dismay, the customer service representative suggested that I sell the panini press myself and then purchase a new Read More

Don’t hesitate on purchasing this press. In the past we have used versions not as nice. Which leads to having to have the press worked on or replaced. Make the investment. Loved the grooved top and flat bottom!

This is a workhorse panini grill. We have been very happy with it. It's not a cheap grill - it's a solid, commercial grill that's heavy and well made. It takes about 30 minutes for it to warm up to around 350 degrees. If the cast iron is kept clean and seasoned, it should last for a very long time. This is our second grill to purchase so we can have two grills running at once. It takes quite a bit of current to run this machine, so consulting with your electrician about your kitchen's electrical capabilities would be wise since it needs a designated circuit.

This is worth every penny. This panini press will hold four large sandwiches and cook them to perfection. There is no need to use the timer function as this will perform beyond expected. An absolute must for any sandwich shop.

This grill is great for our small deli. It takes about 20-30 minutes to preheat but once it's heated it makes wonderful paninis. We needed to get a separate outlet wired for it because when we ran the microwave and the panini grill was on it would trip the breaker. Clean up is a snap.
