## Description

From the foremost designer of pie irons comes a specialty sandwich press designed to make delicious grilled Italian Panini sandwiches. Featuring a large 8" x 4" cooking surface and made from heavy cast-iron to insure uniform and solid pressure on the sandwich as it toasts. Rome's Panini Press makes cafe quality sandwiches with ease, style, and verve. Since it's made for grill and stovetop use, our Panini Press feature shorter rods than our campfire pie irons (22" instead of 28"). The rods also unscrew for easy clean up and storage. 16" detachable handle.

Review: Novel Idea - The only problem is that you can only make one sandwich at a time. I had 3 sandwiches to make in Texas Summer weather over the gas grill. This really was not fun. I might try it with pie crust in the Winter. I tried to season it on the gas stove inside but it smoked up the whole kitchen so I moved outside to the grill. The sandwiches were great and it works great, just too labor intensive for the outcome.
Review: Love sandwiches made in a pie iron - I use this panini press to make sandwiches on the camp chef grill, open fire and stove top. Makes perfect panini sandwiches and adds some fun to the process for the entire family. Great times to be had when you make dinner - custom sandwiches with the family. The only issue I have with Rome products is the amount of work necessary to season the irons before use. No doubt that the irons will last two lifetimes after a proper seasoning and some minor upkeep. Do your self a favor and buy a few of the pie irons, good food and fun times as a family.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Please, which is the total weight and measures for shipping?**
A: It is a very heavy object and was shipped intact in a rectangular box. The length is about 24" by 8". My guess is over 2lbs for shipping but don't quote me.

**Q: Is it a truly seasoned cast iron or does it have non-stick coating?**
A: It doesn’t have Teflon or a non stick coating. I use mine on an open fire and seasoned it myself.  It has some weight to it like cast iron should.  Very happy with mine.

**Q: I see that it is 4" x 8" but what is the inside height?  how thick will the sandwich be when done? ty coast**
A: Inside height is 3-4 centimetri.

**Q: Does it work on induction (?)**
A: M8, this stuff is for open fire.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ VERY GOOD for CAMPING, Stovetop use great if you know how to use it right!
*by T***A on April 10, 2021*

I ordered this Panini press because it looked so big, heavy and sturdy. We have been using our much smaller panini press on our stovetop for years, but since it was so small, we ended up making 2-3 sandwiches per person, so we were on a lookout for a bigger one. I have to mention here that sandwiches that come out of those combersome-looking long-handled panini grills in general are far superior than the ones made in electric devices!! That being said, this was our first ambiguous experience at first, BUT THE SELLER WAS SO NICE, and refunded without asking for the product to be returned, so... we kept the press, and tried it again.. There is a learning curve for everything! This press is VERY VERY good when used in campfire. It is a bit too heavy/bulky, just perfect for camping. For your home use there are nuances. You have to make sure it heats up EVENLY and THOROUGHLY before you put the sandwich in. Then it works wonders! If you place your panini in a cold press, and then start heating, then yes, it will take much longer to warm up, and the sandwich will come out sort of "steamed" more than grilled. Knowing how to use it properly ensures that you have a superior outcome!! However, like I said, the seller was really nice, which made me try the product again and update my review!
