Our old Sandwich maker was certainly showing signs of age, not least loss of its non stick coating. But it was 15 years old so it wasn't too hard to finally accept it needing replacing.
But - We wanted something that offered a little more than a standard Sandwich Toaster would do, be compact enough to store away in a kitchen with limited storage space, but something that would have a timeless look to it, so it wouldn't look out of place in 5 or 10 years time. And it had to be a reasonable price.
It has a stylish chrome finish body. The non-stick coated cooking plates are made for easy cleaning. It has an easily seen indicator light. A nice sized cool touch handle. It stands upright for compact and space saving storage.
The grill plates are ribbed, and the hinges "float" to allow additional space between the plates that a fixed hinge system doesn't allow for.
This means you can do pannini's or even toasted baguettes and other food (we often do vegetables) you might want to griddle in there if you wanted to. We've also done waffles very successfully on this.
You have a variable heat setting, which again is very useful and gives you some nice control over how your food cooks/toasting.
It stores nicely and looks good whether stored on a work surface or out to use. A number of friends and family have now bought one of these after seeing ours in operations.
It does 2 sandwiches at any one time. The plates are not removable but are easy to access and clean and that would be the only negative you could say about it. It would have made what is an already excellent product outstanding.
We got ours from JohnLewis.com and paid £39-95.
