contemplating the griddler

The Griddler by Cuisinart, around $99, has reversible platesIt's a combination panini press/griddleI did a mini survey on FB, asking my friends if anyone owns/likes/dislikes this panini press? Or if they had another they loved, to let me know. Well thank you FB! Lots of people responded in favor of the Griddler. We've had the George (Foreman grill) for 11 years, and it is finally breaking. So sad
