  • Our take on the Chef Buddy 80-1840

    The Chef Buddy 80-1840 is a two-plate panini grill with nonstick coated plates and a pull-out grease tray. The plates measure about 10.75 by 6.75 inches, enough for two standard sandwiches at once, and the steel body weighs 5 lb. It is a simple, low-cost press for quick grilled sandwiches and panini at home. Rivals at this level often add floating hinges, adjustable temperature dials or removable plates; this one keeps to a fixed setup with a drip tray, so it suits buyers who want basic pressing without extra controls.

    Questions and answers

    How many sandwiches fit at once?
    The plates are about 10.75 by 6.75 inches, so two standard sandwiches fit side by side.
    Are the plates removable for cleaning?
    No. The plates are nonstick coated but fixed, so you wipe them down after the grill cools.
    Does it have a temperature control?
    No. It runs on a fixed heat setting with no dial, so browning depends on how long you leave the sandwich in.
    What is the grease tray for?
    It sits under the plates and catches fat and drips that run off during pressing.
    Can it grill thick sandwiches?
    It can, but without a floating hinge the top plate presses flat, so very thick fillings may compress unevenly.
    How big is it on the counter?
    About 12.25 inches wide, 11 inches deep and 4.25 inches tall, and it weighs 5 lb.
    Where is the Chef Buddy 80-1840 cheapest?
    At Walmart, for $26.95, as of our latest check.
