so far....so good...just keep in mind that the temperature control is in Celcius! didn't know that and wanted to do a grilled cheese sandwich (normally setting about 350 degrees) and couldn't figure out why the temperature control "only" went to 300 after checking on how the sandwich was coming along by taking a peek and lifting up the top...my top slice was stuck/glued to the top! and burnt!! not a good way to start a new machineI then realized dahhhh maybe it's in Celcius so turned off the unit/let it cool down...sprayed the top/bottom with spray oil and tried again, setting the control at 180 (maybe approx 350)much better!word to the wise :)
