This multi use iron is fantastic! This was a major upgrade from my old waffle iron that did NOT have removable pieces. I'm so happy that I can remove the grills to easily wash them but I'm also so pleased with the fact that there are 3 different grill options. This is a great kitchen item!

Super easy to use and clean! Loving croc monsieur night 🥰 it also warms up rather quickly. I have yet to find a good waffle recipe that works though. Any link appreciated!

Love this grill. We use it all the time for waffles mostly, but will rotate through other plates as well. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the plates wear and chip really easily, even with hand washing. This is our second grill we've purchased in 5 years. The previous one was the exact same model. We had to replace it due to paint chipping off the previous waffle plates – didn't like the idea of that on my food. Too bad they don't just sell replacement plates.

Cumple en todas sus funciones! Gran relación calidad precio. La versatilidad de las placas intercambiables lo vuelve un indispensable para cocinas pequeñas pero que buscan funcionalidad. Con mínimo de mantequilla o aceite la comida no se pega. Fácil de limpiar si la limpias con una toalla de papel después de usar. La parrilla es una maravilla para cocinar carne y pescado porque evita que el olor escape y dando una cocción uniforme. El aparato ocupa poco espacio. Los waffles quedan bien siempre y cuando la mezcla tenga una consistencia no muy líquida. Recibí abierta la caja porque era de importación pero no me importó pues su precio en Amazon fue imbatible! Más barata 30% que en otros lugares. Amo este electrodoméstico y lo uso todos los días! Dándole un buen cuidado te durará mucho!

La vi en tiendas departamentales y estaba agotada. La busqué aquí y estaba muchísimo más barata. La verdad excelente producto. Las placas intercambiables son lo mejor! Fácil de usar, de limpiar, tuesta muy bien… Excelente!!

This sandwich maker is fantastic! It heats up quickly and toasts sandwiches evenly, giving them a perfect golden crisp on the outside while keeping the inside warm and delicious. The size is just right for making two sandwiches at once, and the non-stick plates make cleanup super easy. It’s compact, easy to store, and very convenient for quick meals or snacks. Great quality at an affordable price — highly recommend!

This is a nice looking appliance with six plates, sandwich, waffle, and grill. I bought it used like new. I heated up for a few minutes just to try it. The heat was good but it took a long time to cool off. The top was very hot. It had a real plastic smell. I opted to return it and look at just grills. The six plates take up a lot of space which I don't have.

I have a mini waffle-maker and a mini sandwich press (the kind that makes triangular press marks) and wanted to get one appliance that does both and a bit more, plus which cooks two waffles or small sandwiches at once. I was hesitant about this thing because of the quality problems that customers have reported. I've had good luck with Black & Decker (B&D) in the past, though, so gave it a try. I'm hanging onto my old waffle maker until I've had the B&D for a while, though, and watching for quality problems.

How I use it: I live alone. I use this for one or two chaffles (keto cheese waffles), a single large sandwich, or one or two sandwiches made with smallish loaf bread. Now that I've tried the panini press/grill plates, I've stored the triangular sandwich press plates in a high cabinet in the unlikely event that I'll ever want to use them again. My favorite thing is to take a purchased sub sandwich and squish it in the panini press, getting a crunchy crust with delightful grill marks.
This is better than reheating a sandwich in the toaster oven because it's OK to put a sandwich in the B&D even if there's lettuce in it, because you can take the sandwich out before it wilts the lettuce: the bread still gets that great crust. My usual chaffle batter (one egg, half a cup of finely-shredded cheddar, and a sprinkle of some random spice mix from my spice cabinet) makes two interesting chaffles: they don't fill the waffle iron enough to touch the top plate, such that I get sort of a lace edge, with square holes all around the outside edge. I thought this was a problem until I ate them. The crispy lacy edges are my favorite part! Now I add a little cayenne to the mix, and the result is very similar to cheese straws, which I love, but the chaffles are not greasy, which is different from (and better than) cheese straws. So now I make extra, put them in a food storage box on the kitchen counter when cool, and eat them as snacks. If I want one substantial chaffle, I'll put all the batter in one side. I tried cooking a small steak in the panini press/grill, and it was OK — I buy whole tenderloins on sale and cut them into 1.5" steaks, so, no problem making contact top and bottom, but the cook was uneven. The right side was medium rare and the left side was medium. I've gone back to searing the steaks in a small non-stick pan, like I used to (and yes, in my experience, you can sear meat in non-stick). When I'm not using it, I store it on the kitchen counter behind my toaster oven, which sits athwart a corner, so there's lots of room back there. But it stays out where I can use it most of the time, because I use it a lot.

Bottom line: I love it. It's fun to play with, trying different things, and it fills needs I didn't know I had, such as improving sandwiches. Very versatile. The size is perfect for an old lady living alone. I will continue to experiment with it, and grilling a chicken breast is probably next. I'll brine it and maybe pound the thick end so it will cook more evenly, and will rotate it halfway through cooking.

Tips:
– If you use pieces of cooking parchment to enclose food, the plates won't need washing at all. I use "Katbite 130PCS Air Fryer Liners" (from Amazon) for this. You can set the food on a sheet of this paper and just fold it over for most things, so you protect the top and bottom plates, and if there's any likelihood that the food will spread out at all (like cheese melting in a sandwich), wrap it all the way around to contain it. The paper will extend out past the sides of the B&D, which is not a problem, and is even helpful for removing the food to a plate. The cheese (or shredded meat or whatever) that spills out will still grill and get delightfully crispy (and will be easy to remove completely inside the paper, with no cleanup).
– When using cooking parchment, you can lay a skewer or chopstick along one long edge of the food, inside the paper, to help position the food inside the B&D. This is especially helpful when wrapping the food up completely. With thick food, the B&D won't close completely, so the skewer sticking out the side doesn't interfere with anything.

Notes:
– The B&D handles thicker food than most similar appliances because it's set up to make thick Belgian waffles. I like this and chose the B&D because of it. My goal was to use the panini plates to grill thick sandwiches, and it does this like a champ. It does mean, however, that you may need more waffle batter than you are used to using.
– It's fast. Don't leave the kitchen while it's going. I like to put a sandwich in, then get my plate together with things like slaw and pickles and get my beverage ready, and by then the sandwich will be perfect.
– The plates wash well in the dishwasher, but come out with a gazillion water drops. I set them on the rack of my air fryer/toaster oven and run the "warm" cycle (180F for 10 minutes), and by the time they are cool enough to touch, they are dry. The air-fryer function gives it a blow-dried effect. It does not prevent water spots, though.
– The underside of the plates gives off a black substance that stains. I tried hand-washing the plates the first time I used them and dried them with a white cloth, and there's a stain on the white cloth now that won't come out. I tried soaking and pre-treating, and it still didn't come out. After running the panini plates through the dishwasher several times, the black stain still comes off the back on my fingers. Not a problem, I just handle it by the edges and dry them in the toaster oven.
– There's nothing wrong with the triangular sandwich press plates. I just don't see that there's any advantage over using the panini press. I might make grilled cheese sandwiches with it in the future… but the panini press is really good for that, too.

If problems develop with the B&D, I'll post an update. But, so far, so good.

I almost cancelled my order after reading some awful reviews, but I'm glad I didn't.

This little waffle/panini maker works well. My only complaints are that it is pretty small and is a little slow to heat up. But for our small household it's great. Waffles take 5 to 7 minutes to cook which is fine. I do need to use spray oil on the heating plates for every batch, contrary to what some of the instructions say.

Baked sandwiches take 3 to 5 minutes to melt cheese and turn golden brown with the outsides coated in mayonnaise. There is no problem with sticking.

The plus side of being small is that it is easy to clean and store.

Fast and easy for use

I love it that the plates are interchangeable. This gets used at least 2X a week at my house. We have prefect sandwiches and quesadillas every time! I don't know why i didn't purchase sooner.

Good product, multifunctional with different styles for waffle, sandwiches, even Arepas.

Lo utilizo bastante, muy bueno, calidad increíble, precio- calidad muy bien

Great product! The removable sandwich plates makes crispy, perfect grilled cheese sandwiches and clean easily. The grill function works great as long as your food item is large enough to reach the top plate. For smaller items, you just have to make sure to turn over to cook evenly. I have not used the waffle maker function, but I am looking forward to doing so very soon.

I have a smaller version of this appliance for 2 years now that I use for myself. (It only makes one waffle square or filled sandwich, or panini.) I got this one as a gift for someone who will appreciate the double size – twice as much food cooked in same amount of time.
Hands down the best feature is the different, removable plates. They make for easy cleanup, and versatile choices for cooking. They aren't the best 'non-stick' surfaces, but food generally doesn't stick much. A wee bit of butter or oil goes a long way to help that.
That it's so simple to use is a big pro, and a slight con. It really only turns on and off. No heat settings, and no timer. I've had enough experience with small appliances like these to know it takes about 2 minutes for, say, a waffle. So you have to time what you're cooking, and learn as you go for how much time specific foods need. Grilled cheese or filled sandwich also only takes 2 minutes, and is heated through, even when stuffed full. I have even used it to heat food without bread, since the plates have some depth and can be easily cleaned.
I did test the 'gift' unit with 2 slices of white bread on the panini plates – it toasted the bread evenly and well, but only on the bottom. Because a single slice of bread isn't tall enough to fill the space, it didn't touch the top plate so the top didn't toast. Food needs to touch both plates to toast or brown completely on both top and bottom. That might explain reviews where waffles show not browned.
